Today, the claim remains true. The "undereducated" have become more familiar
with personal computing, e-mail, the World Wide Web, and possibly hypertextual applications. Other forms of electronic writing, like DJing, which pose great potential for innovation in teaching, remain marginal in writing instruction because they don't, at first glance, fit in the framework of traditional composition demands. Such instruction fears how new, electronic rhetorical approaches, like sampling, will ignore the basic tenets of composition pedagogy: development of claims (or topic sentences), supports, organization, voice, audience, mechanics, and style. Yet, what I perform here briefly challenges such assumptions. When mixed down into a composition, we see that the temporal juxtapositions I forge reveal an emerging argument regarding style and content. In my mix, the two writing issues are not distinct, but rather interlocking. Style, as Lanham and Irmscher demonstrate, is important to writing. But style, as Hebdige and Barthes show, directs content. In turn, Citizen Kane provides a model for a writing style conducive to electronic writing: the collection.
