I got to hang out with the cool kids. The Syracuse Writing Program had a little symposium on visual and digital rhetorics, and so I got to enjoy the company of a whole bunch of fine people. Jenny Edbauer and Jeff Rice presented their smart work: they are both using documentary in various sharp ways to bring theory and classroom practice into each other. I got to meet Alex and Derek, finally, and go through the unsettling shift from preconceived images based on others’ writing to their 'real' faces and movements. Oh, and Collin was there, too -- and Alishia, Elisa, Ruby, Denise, and Tamika. Good folk, and I wish I hadn't been so sick, darn it.
