Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Southern California, 2012.

I constructed, photographed, and then animated a dollhouse in Adobe Flash Professional 5.5 in order to create a space in which my writing haunts : as one explores the rooms of the house, my writing is conjured as apparitions. In this way, my project investigates the concept of hauntedness, revealing the ways in which domestic spaces and New Media technologies similarly function as forms of gendered monstrous embodiment. However, through the use of a theory I am terming "narrative transmography," I maintain that the definition of monstrosity, and the metaphor of the cyborg in particular, can be extended to narrative forms and constructions, using gender and technology as focal points, while simultaneously being the incarnation of the theory in practice.
