Writing & Rhetoric 2: Rhetorics of Copying, Memeing, Modding and Piracy

PWR 2 courses focus on developing strategies for presenting research-based arguments in both written and oral/multimedia genres. This class takes as its theme traditions, practices, and artifacts that call the premises of originality into question and that playfully unsettle the state and corporate narratives of cultural ownership that sustain them.
