Welcome to My Multiverse

Welcome to Scott's Multiverse Version 4.0! For those of you who are regular visitors you'll notice a substantial design change. I'm still testing the new nav interface above and the entire site, so if you have any comments or suggestions, I'm happy to hear them. Thanks.

Hello, as you've no doubt guessed from the banner above, I'm Scott Graham, and this is my online multiverse. Here one will find a broad smattering of things pertaining to me and my courses. The pages here within range from information about me, to class syllabi, to random photo galleries. There are snipits of philosophical ranting, links to various organizations, academic and otherwise, and the beginnings of what I hope will become a decent link list to helpful sites about many different aspects of web design. All are welcome and invited to peruse as they see fit.

What's a Multiverse?

Many of you, upon arriving at my site, no doubt wondered what the heck a multiverse was. Well, so nice of you to wonder. I will happily provide you with a brief explanation. The idea of multiversity was borne out of the empiricist criterion, which states in the most simplistic fashion that one can only speak or think intelligently only about things within the realm of his or her own experience. (Oh yes, I mean only.) Thinking about anything else (rationalizing) is pointless and irrelevant.

I know, I know, the question is still "Mult-what?" Well, since I have had no experience which in any way demonstrates to me the unity of all reality, (unity...UNI-verse..see where I'm going here?) the supposition "universe" is useless and unjustifiable. I have only experienced reality in multitudinousness, and hence I only will speak and think about multiversity

What's a Multiverse?

As you've discovered twice already my name is Scott Graham. I'm an English Composition and Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering Portfolio instructor as well as being a scholar of rhetoric, composition and professional communication. My areas of interest lie specifically in epistemic rhetoric, multimodal communication pedagogy, the logic of scientific communication. I am currently embroiled in projects evaluating the epistemic differences between various modes of communication, assessing multimodal communication pedagogy, and exploring non-linear argumentation.
