Five Considerations For Engaging With Big Data From A Rhetorical-Humanistic Perspective, Zoltan P. Majdik
Five Considerations For Engaging With Big Data From A Rhetorical-Humanistic Perspective, Zoltan P. Majdik
Poroi
This essay offers five conceptual entry points for engaging with Big Data from a rhetorical perspective. These five concepts—data in/as relationships, observability/action, patterns, diachronicity, and audience—serve as points of deep conceptual commonality between definitions of Big Data and principles in rhetorical studies, and are offered here as considerations for critiquing uses of Big Data from a rhetorical-humanistic perspective, as well as for guiding rhetorical work that uses Big Data.

The Rhetoric Of Big Data: Collecting, Interpreting, And Representing In The Age Of Datafication, Brad Mehlenbacher, Ashley Rose Mehlenbacher
Poroi
Rhetorical studies of science, technology, and medicine (RSTM) have provided critical understanding of how argument and argument norms within a field shape what we mean by “data.” Work has also examined how questions that shape data collection are asked, how data is interpreted, and even how data is shared. Understood as a form of argument, data reveals important insights into rhetorical situations, the motives of rhetorical actors, and the broader appeals that shape everything from the kinds of technologies built, to their inclusion in our daily lives, to the infrastructures of cities, the medical practices and policies concerning public health ...
Rhetorical Implications Of Contact Tracing Mobile Applications: An Examination Of Big Data’S Work On The Body, Candice L. Lanius
Rhetorical Implications Of Contact Tracing Mobile Applications: An Examination Of Big Data’S Work On The Body, Candice L. Lanius
Poroi
For nearly a decade, big data has been hyped as an amazing new technology that will benefit corporations and consumers alike. By promising customized knowledge at an accelerated pace, big data technologies have slowly saturated the digital systems American consumers use to live, work, and play. Yet have the promised benefits materialized? An examination of the proposed contact tracing applications in response to the novel coronavirus alongside existing wearable technologies reveal that our trust and vulnerability, opening our bodies to be sensed by these networked systems, is a fraught rhetorical activity: not because an omniscient system now sees us and ...
Big Data Drive: The Rhetoric Of Biometric Big Data, Valerie C. Ortega, Kevin Johnson
Big Data Drive: The Rhetoric Of Biometric Big Data, Valerie C. Ortega, Kevin Johnson
Poroi
In this essay, we seek to develop a concept of “big data drive.” Influenced in part by Lacan’s theory of drive, we study the drive toward biometric big data. Biometric big data (BBD) refers to the data collected around facial recognition, eye recognition, thumb prints, and other types of technology whose task is to identify a specific being through unique bio characteristics. “Big Data Drive” refers to the energies that pulsate around Big Data, as both a signifier and fetishized object, to promise “something more” that may never be fulfilled.
Big Data, Congress, And The Rhetoric Of Technology: Or, How To Industrialize Cyberspace, Christopher Lee Adamczyk
Big Data, Congress, And The Rhetoric Of Technology: Or, How To Industrialize Cyberspace, Christopher Lee Adamczyk
Poroi
As new and developing technologies impact public and private life, rhetoricians would be remiss to overlook the deliberative rhetorics that justify their development, implementation, use-value, and impact. Using the 2013 joint congressional hearing “Next Generation Computing and Big Data Analytics” as an example, I argue that justificatory rhetorics about technology intersect with rhetoric from technology, obscuring information vital to critical deliberation. I demonstrate that the expert witnesses at this hearing draw upon rhetoric traditionally associated with American industrialization. Doing so allows them to articulate Big Data as a resource situated upon a metaphorical, American landscape and thus encourages the public ...

Pilots In The First World War: How The Phenomenon Of The Flying Ace Impacted The War Effort, Hannah Haack
Pilots In The First World War: How The Phenomenon Of The Flying Ace Impacted The War Effort, Hannah Haack
Honors Theses at the University of Iowa
This thesis analyzes the British and German air forces during the First World War, and the various uses of planes and the men that flew them. Pilots were valued militarily, but their uses went beyond pure battle strategy and militaristic accomplishments. From the beginning of the 20th century, Europe had been infatuated with the idea of airfare and its potential power, and Europeans were also obsessed with the heroic pilots that flew them. Some of Europe’s most famous authors including H.G. Wells and Jules Verne heavily featured pilots as their glamorous, daring and brave heroes, so when the ...
The Engineering, Science, And Management War Training Program: Higher Education And The Second World War, Dieter Ostermann
The Engineering, Science, And Management War Training Program: Higher Education And The Second World War, Dieter Ostermann
Honors Theses at the University of Iowa
In 1940 the United States faced the looming threat of another global conflict while still recovering from a debilitating economic depression. The American government acted quickly and established numerous federal programs designed to meet foreseeable needs of the nation across a wide spectrum of categories. One such program established in 1940 was the Engineering, Science, and Management War Training Program designed to rapidly produce scientific and technical specialists for crucial defense industries. A distinct attribute of the program was the diversity of its participants due to the prohibition of discrimination on the basis of race, sex, or age. This allowed ...
The Life And Patronage Of Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge: Exploring Developments In Cultural Philanthropy With The Institutionalization Of American Classical Music, Nicole Allen
Honors Theses at the University of Iowa
The decades around the turn of the twentieth century presented a sudden growth in American musical life and more specifically, classical music. My thesis explores how this crucial and formative moment coincided with the rise of cultural philanthropy in the United States. As musical life was becoming institutionalized, individualist cultural philanthropists such as Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge created and supported these opportunities in innovative and unconventional ways. By examining the case study of Coolidge, this thesis explores how the institutionalization of classical music in twentieth-century America connects to new ideas about the role of patrons in artistic life and society in ...
“If We Had Lost The War, We All Would Have Been Prosecuted As War Criminals:” The Bombing Campaign Against Japan In World War Two, Travis Siegel
“If We Had Lost The War, We All Would Have Been Prosecuted As War Criminals:” The Bombing Campaign Against Japan In World War Two, Travis Siegel
Honors Theses at the University of Iowa
In the last six months of WWII, the United States conducted a bombing campaign in Japan that would mark the world forever. Though a combination of engineering ingenuity, chemical creations, mass production, and racial profiling, the course of the war in the Pacific was fundamentally changed. Strategic bombing was a relatively new concept which only a handful of crucial figures were investigating into. In the pursuit of creating a fleet which would dominate the skies, it was the American government's intention to brutalize the Japanese until they gave into an unconditional surrender. While the usage of atomic bombs has ...
Man, Myth, Legend: The Many Faces Of Thomas More, Salma Rios
Man, Myth, Legend: The Many Faces Of Thomas More, Salma Rios
Honors Theses at the University of Iowa
In the centuries after his death, the perceptions of Sir Thomas More have changed over 500 years. In works spanning from the seventeenth century to the twentieth century, the perception of More have shifted from ones of overwhelming praise to increasingly critical of his actions. This thesis seeks to explore how the perceptions of More have changed over time, especially within the 1980s due to new scholarship and new ways of interpreting More’s character. Events within the twentieth century, which include the canonization of Thomas More as a saint in 1935, the creation of the peer-reviewed journal Moreana in ...
