BEER Group Read. The looseness, the attitude

The language is foregrounded, so emphasized, that it is, the point.
The narrative is so aware of itself, of the limits it has, to the
interface of media texts, so the process of processing language is the
point, is the object, and how it connotes meaning(s) by down and up
loading voices as they bleed along the edges of media is the point of
Bleeding Edge. The narrative constantly emphasizes its construction or
how these words and phrases, ugly, dirty, witty, punny, phunny, phony,
teeny and weeny and actually kinda like whiny, is spaghettied and
baloneeeed so that the author and the reader no longer know who is
responsible for it.
Early reviews blame the author. This misses the point.
