Rhetoric Presentations

First of all, a big hand for all of us: we identified some kickass rhetoric.

Now that we've savored that moment, let's get down to the nitty-gritty. I enjoyed all of the presentations. They were all quite thoughtful, and there were interesting things brought to the table that I had never even considered. I particularly enjoyed how cdobbs went for something different and demonstrated how people themselves can be conduits for rhetoric, something I myself was not even considering while pursueing this project. I must admit that I was looking at mostly architectural examples. This was a breach from the norm and it was refreshing. It led us down an entirely new avenue of thought. Are not each and every one of us walking examples of rhetoric in some form or another? Are we ourselves moving advertisements for various companies and sets of beliefs? A rather cold and calculated viewpoint I grant you, but not a totally inacurate one.
