and since the digital converges all media into a single state (that is to say digital data)
the historical side of newspapers and other texts moving forward in time...this essentially provides tech users with more opportunities to explore their world whether it be the technological world or "reality" as we know it

must first be digitised to data, then modulated between storage and display in an endless protocol-based negotiation that both severs any link to the data’s semantic source and creates an ever-growing excess of data weirdly related to, but ontologically distinct from, its originating data source.
ironically this seems more labor intensive than simple verbal or written communication. But, after this is all said and done, digital media will lend more information than expected and it can be done in less than a second of time

What broadly characterises this trend is its commitment to a return to a full-blown metaphysics of ‘being,’ outside of any subjective or human ‘correlation.’
Has technology surpassed the finite minds of humans although we are the creators of technology? We have given technology so much power to do/think for us to the point that a realm of dependency surfaces.

Ontology, when it enters at all, can only do so as an historically-circumscribed concern.
This theory is restricted by the here and now. Sooner or later the discourse surrounding human-technology interactions will change because the concepts behind the technology will only progress from today's advances

Stuart is an exception to the social norms that view disabled bodies as unattractive, and she gets to be that exception only by conforming to specific body norms.
This goes back to a previous highlight about identities. "conforming to specific body norms"
She has to compromise one identity to blend in with another that is equally underrepresented.

At least the attention on Stuart has focused on her and her choices. Her story of fashion and weight loss has led to a professional modeling gig, some wonderful photo shoots and reporting from around the globe. As her mother says, everyone ought to realize that “people with Down syndrome can be sexy and beautiful and should be celebrated.” Her fame has sprung from her Facebook page and is something she clearly wants. I’m ready to celebrate her.
So distracted by the disability, I'm surprised that the requirements to become a model weren't highlighted. I guess Stuart had to compromise her identity somewhere and since she couldn't change her disability, she could change her weight.
What constitutes being "overweight" or "fat" or "too big"? If she had not have loss weight, which identity would provoke negative attitudes?

In all cases, disabled humans get treated as props
Strong, harsh vocabulary... First "porn" now "props" as if it sets the stage for an able person's big debut.

Suggest a book, an article, a film, a song, a piece of artwork, or an assignment that speaks to some aspect of Ferguson.
The topic shifts from Michael Brown's death and focuses on a larger picture here... civil rights, equal rights, black rights

He will not have a first day ever again.
Ironically, his history will live on every first day of school with the help of the Ferguson syllabus. Just like historic figures such as Socrates and Aristotle, Michael Brown will live on after his passing, and he has influenced the shaping of classroom curriculum.

particularly when those bodies vary in identity markers of class, gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, and disability—our students gain ethical knowledge that values human difference.
Does this insinuate that the deaf culture may be a culture based around equality versus the hearing culture?

nonverbal communication means—a phrase I threw around lightly when I was giving my students instructions. It does not include signed English, it does not include captions on a screen, and it does not include visual aids. Rather, it is the story we tell with our bodies
Myth: 80% of communication is nonverbal
If so, the 20% that the hearing culture is missing is more significant than not. We fall short of embodying the true experience of communication. I guess our facial and body gestures down to the way we dress doesn't suffice.

As a Coda
Author's ethos indeed, but the title just furthers the separation from the rest...
false binary like black/white thinking or talking; gay/straight fashion
Is "Coda" really a title used among the deaf culture or is it just a convenient abbreviation for Hunter at the moment?

that deafness is something that is gained, and that hearing culture
False dichotomy perhaps? What if deaf and hearing individuals coexist in a culture

a woman with a cane
Connecting back to the Feminist Rhetoric article..."woman with a cane"... I am surprised that a female author would objectify a disabled woman as if she is a lump on a log. Traditional gender constructs embedded in human thought/behavior. I'm almost sure Hunter didn't mean it in this way, but the statement sure is sketchy.

Pivotal rhetoricians used female bodily characteristics as reminders of societal scripts: coming from a sound mother, weaning, being of “good birth”, and outgrowing one’s nurturing to focus on an appealing body and mind were treated as prescripts to coming of age and becoming an ideal male orator in Greek society

online feminism to a “nervous system of this modern day feminist body politic
another metaphor for the human body...connection to "gender parity"..."In biology...gravidity and parity are two terms that refer to the number of times a female has been pregnant (gravidity) Italic[the number of times equal rights for women has been brought to surface and fought for] and carried the pregnancies to a viable gestational age (parity) [Italicthe movements that have made a difference especially in the political realm].

abortion Barbie
Pathetic and also rooted in the history of feminism where middle class white women fought for equal pay like middle class white males. Not only that, but other political and even sexual equality was fought for. White men essentially HATED it.

What does today’s equation include, now that digital writing and voice mediate our public utterances?
It seems that the feminist movement has evolved to include all women from any culture, race, ethnicity. Are they a part of "X"?
