For my final research project, I will either do a visualization, infographic, or craft. I would like to choose the word “body,” so I think it would be interesting if I could incorporate the body as a visual representation somewhere within the project.
I think my rhetorical community covers many discourse communities. It covers women, LGBTQ, straight people, and sick people. I think rhetorical communities get their information from news articles, current events, and even academic literature. Therefore, I am conflicted on to what is the best media to represent my content since the rhetorical community can get their information from many different places, and my rhetorical community is very broad. I think some sort of visual media would be beneficial as that is a media that is accessible to everyone. Overall, I want to demonstrate the intersectionality between the medical body and the social body in terms of sexuality.
3 generic conventions for a visualization/craft/infographic
1) colorful, engaging images
2) geometric shapes and lines https://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/93521/3/repository20.pdf
3) clean layouts, objectivity https://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/93521/3/repository20.pdf
