Welcome to Show 64 of the CLIP Podcast. Tonight I have for you another multi-modal text set which is a combination of print based, music, media, art based texts, amongst other kinds of text, that focus on a particular topic or issue. What I like most about these text sets is that they provide for us opportunities to think about certain issues in multiple ways and often from multiple perspectives. When we read any text, listen to any song, view any piece of art or film, and so forth , we do so from particular ideological positions, we can’t avoid this because the experiences we’ve had, the discourses or the ways of being, talking, doing that we’ve lived become tools that we use, whether consciously or not when making meaning in the world. So these discourses inform the positions from which we are able to communicate in the world. They also influence the ways in which what we communicate positions others in the world. Text sets therefore better inform our thinking on particular topics or issues because they allow us to read one text against another or to rub one text against another.

In tonight’s episode is Marissa Campos talking about Disrupting Gender Stereotypes.
