The stakes are high in Julian Dibbel’s “A Rape in Cyberspace”: the incident of Mr. Bungle calls to question the division between public, private, digital, and physical space. I came away from this article not only asking myself how we can navigate digital and physical spaces (given this example), but wondering about this subject’s connection to notions of screen essentialism explored later on in the course. How do we engage the digital space of digital crimes and maintain Kirschenbaum’s notion of a symbiotic feedback loop? How does A Rape in Cyberspace translate into the physical world, and thus transform notions and sublimations of visibility?
