• Experience, Embodiment, Excess: Multimedia[ted] [E]visceration and Installation Rhetoric

  Jacqueline Rhodes and Jonathan Alexander

  Abstract. This chapter is a theoretical expansion and translation of a multimedia installation designed to provoke critical thinking about how bodies and rhetorics intertwine in the creation of normative notions of composing selves. As installation rhetoric, "Multimedia[ted] [E]visceration" worked against the ideological programming that often blinds us to the frequent, pervasive, and persuasive normativization of bodily representation.
