Description: In this podcast, JL Wright discusses the concept of the meme, what visual rhetoric is, why boobs are so symbolic, and how all of this is really just human thought transference. JL: Please refer to me as JL Wright in writing, and I use they/them pronouns. JL is a cultural studies interdisciplinarian whose research is in the areas of literature, cultural anthropology, archaeology, theater, and gender studies. The specific academic areas of visual rhetoric, memetics, adaptation studies, and convergence culture are the focal points of JL's research into representations of warrior women in ancient mythology and modern adaptations of these archetypes in contemporary comic books. They are particularly interested in the way fans adapt these comic book memes into tattoos that are further personalized to match the individual's identity as a "warrior woman."
