Video: Kalman (with a side of Rice)
This is the end result of the previously mentioned Kalman (with a side of Rice) project. For reference, I was asked to assemble an intersecting narrative of a particular place and deliver it in a way that somewhat resembles the exploratory works of author Maria Kalman and rhetorician Jeff Rice. To better understand the scope (and implied style characteristics) of this particular task, I read Kalman's work And the Pursuit of Happiness and explored selections from Rice's 2012 essay, "Digital Detroit: Rhetoric and Space in the Age of the Network". At its core, the project's aim was to compile commonplace representations of a location and, then, intersect that particular narrative with one of our own — a narrative that should detail a separate, lesser-known story.
