Transcription de la présentation

  1. The issue of Technology and nature Alyssa Keyne

  2. “Tweets from the Trail,” Walter Kirn A paradoxical concept of technology enhancing nature.

  3. “Tweets from the Trail” • By bestselling author Walter Kirn • Appears on OutsideOnline.com, a website for Outdoors, a fitness/outdoors magazine • Explains his relationship with nature • Challenges commonly held thoughts that technology violates nature • Uses figurative language– almost like a narrative

  4. Framework of the Argument • 1st paragraph: Acknowledges alternate views • 2nd and 3rd paragraphs: Provides first experience, Up in the Air • 4th and 5th paragraphs: Movie on iPad in Malibu • 6th paragraph: Tweeting during hikes • 7th paragraph: Conclusion

  5. Up in the Air Anecdote Why did Kern choose to put this example first, and how might it encourage his audience to respond?

  6. The Title Would Kirn’s article be received differently if he named it after his first example?

  7. Ethos Would Kirn’s viewpoint be considered if he was not a bestselling author? Does his ethos make sense in Outdoors magazine?

  8. Other Arguments Viewpoints across the spectrum

  9. TritanGooley: BBC Radio Debate and “Technology and Nature Debate” • Tristan Gooley, author of Natural Navigation • Has purist stance • Defines instances of technology in nature as “horror stories” • Claims technology is “beguiling”

  10. Richard Louv: “Balance Technology with Nature” • Author of The Nature Principal, Human Restoration And The End Of The Nature Deficit Disorder • Calls for adults and children to immerse themselves in nature • Pushes conservation • Cites studies • Adults need to escape technology

  11. Jeffrey Tignor: “Technology & Nature – Perfect Together?” • Special Counsel in the Broadband Division of the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau at the FCC • Cites Kirn • Agrees to some extent: pictures, iPod • Asks reader if Thoreau would take the opportunity to play iPod

  12. Stasis At what point in stasis is the issue?

  13. Semantics How do the rhetors describe this type of behavior? How do these descriptions already convey their stances?

  14. Black and White? Does the amount of use (like Tignor’s, for instance) of electronics make technology in the wilderness any more acceptable?
