Document Summary
Moral/religious: bodies associated with transgression and sin, bodies associated with divine marking. Social: focus on embodiment of impairment not disability, disabling environments not bodies, focus on transforming society not bodies. Metaphor: a leaky body human embodiment exists between sameness and difference. More of a matter of stories, political mythologies, and a form of writing that is concerned with seizing the tools to mark the world and recoding communication and intelligence to subvert command and control. Understanding the relationship between technology and human subject. Reveals ableism conditions in the categories of ability and disability. Atheletes are already cyborgified set of rules and practise that are productive of certain bodies.
