Visible Language, Audible Language, Inarticulable Language and the "Supplementary Signifier"
Authors
Nicholas Zurbrugg
Abstract
An examination of the writings of multimedia practitioner Henri Chopin and the critic Roland Barthes form the core of this essay. Both question the limits of language and the ineffability of human experience. The role of the technological is contrasted to that of the body itself.
