Wide Image
Once we complete each of the mystory collages, we overlay the collages to create a palimpsestic self-portrait, an “assemblage [...] of heterogenous [...] documents of text and picture” (123): in a word, a wide image. These wide images are not supposed to be pretty, only meaningful to us. They are graded, Ulmer suggests in his only mention of evaluation, “on [their] formal adherence to the principles and relays developed throughout the course” (123).
