doesn't come across as such... but what about the more general notion that writing can 'make a difference'?
|
<jley> |
yes, I don't think mez's work comes across as self-conscious in a political sense ... my question was more general
|
<datahbleede> |
bri, didn't say that, spoze i shoulda cla.riff.ifed...fromme a sci perspectiff, dunno, but frome an n-trospectiff one i think it has the powah 2, but dependz on the receptivitee of the reader, contextual cuez, presentation etc etc...i am a +itivist about it :)

<reiner> |

|
<datahbleede> |
getz on2 the qz of y we write, i zoopoze...
|
<Surd> |
Some writing 'makes a difference' by dint of its consciousness. Other writing is engaged in the world, or the writer is, toward a different sort of 'difference'.
|

jley smiles, thinks brian [cannot =] naive
|
<datahbleede> |

|
<PbN> |
Yes, surely I could say same for many here and at WebA... but have followed yr work in particular, M, for a very long time.
|
<Surd> |
innovative, high energy writing does seem to proffer different glasses, charged with vitality and the moment.
|
<martha> |

I've noted that you display a certain intellectual independence

re_workinpr thinx this is important
|
<datahbleede> |
rightte...
|
<Surd> |
that is great.
|
<PbN> |
pennish envy?
|
<datahbleede> |
eheheh nice 1 ted:)
|
* |
re_workinpr meant, what is important = the issue of who responds etc.
|
<datahbleede> |
i've alwaze thought of mi writing 2 b androgynouz based, mebbe thizz has something 2 do with it?
|
<PbN> |
yr writing is ex-citing, Mez
|
<datahbleede> |
shore bri, gotcha.
|
<datahbleede> |
thx ted:)
|
<datahbleede> |
mebbe eye unconsciouslee make my stuff a l'tle 2 x-clusive?? knot shore, but i'm wonduhing about itte..
|
<re_workinpr> |
always been an issue on every list i've been on : male voxes/identities dominating talk-wise...
|
<PbN> |
I don't know that gender does/n't play a role so much as sensibility???
|
<Surd> |
naw, you gotta go with your best, Mez.
|
<datahbleede> |
mebbe it doezn't have anything 2 du with the genduh...
|
<datahbleede> |
shore ted, makez senze...
|
<datahbleede> |
anywaze, izz something 2 think aboute. no doubt it'll wurk itself in there, someawhere:)
|
<datahbleede> |
eheh
|
<re_workinpr> |
mez - what is the history of response to the mezangs, genderwise ? + depends on what ?
|
<datahbleede> |
well, when i phirzt started out, most ppl assumed i waz male, gotte a bit of flak about that butte i didn't dis-courage itte, was part of the avatarian threade....nowe that it's open source kode that i'm female, makez for some n-teresting responsez...
|
<datahbleede> |
itz now kindah a null-s-sue, which is goode, but i'm not that stoopid to think it doezn't facktor in2 some ppls responzes...
|
<datahbleede> |
if u get wot i mean? body politic-tock n all that:)
|
<re_workinpr> |
i think it's probably ^very^ active + even constitutive of responses + response-modes
|
<datahbleede> |
shore...
|
<datahbleede> |
mite b 1 ov thoze thingz i kneede to x-plore....
|
<Surd> |
it's challenging writing in many ways, love it, Mez/
