Glitch, Body, Anti-Body

My essay, “Glitch, Body, and Anti-Body” is now live on Outland art magazine -- I’m very much honored to be invited by special editor and glitch theorist Rosa Menkman and EIC Brian Droitcour to write this piece in conversation with Legacy Russell's foundational book, Glitch Feminism.

From the article, I write: "The computer screen is an arbitrary metaphor for order and legibility—an organizing metaphor not unlike the metaphor of the body itself.” Here I look at what it means for the glitch to break down the metaphor of the screen and what it felt like for the metaphor of my own body to break down after I was hospitalized with acute hypoxic respiratory failure after getting sick from COVID in early 2021.
