Destructions:
(the) Will to Order the Computer Classroom
by Byron Hawk
University of Texas at Arlington
Abstract
Using computer classroom structure as a conceptual starting place (topos), this project seeks to meditate on the binary order/chaos as an analogue for other predominant binaries, product/process, literature/composition, rhetorics/poetics, modern/postmodern. The project attempts to make explicit in its own structure the interrelationship of order and chaos, to the point where this binary no longer seems like a feasible way of ordering the world. By doing so, the project is also a meditation on textuality, primarily the relationship between oral/written, formal essay/hypertext, narrative/argument, argument/exposition. The reader is left to "hir" own judgment about the nature of the project and what possible conclusions can be drawn from it.
