PWR 1MO:
Writing & Rhetoric 1: Imagining Technology: The Rhetoric of Humans and Machines
This course explores the ways that technology has been imagined on the page and on the screen. We look at how a diverse group of sources from Cold War comics to Elon Musk's twitter account contribute to an ever-changing definition of 'technology.' And we consider how our hopes and anxieties about technology are represented in creative genres and media.
