Article about Prof. Miranda’s work VOTEMOS.US and a work by artist Jenny Polak Design for the Alien Within in the LLJournal “The Un-accounted Body in Performance: Who is the Subject of the Rights of the Illegal Alien?”
“Both Votemos.us (Miranda) and Design for the Alien Within (Polak) imagine treating the illegal alien as if he/she matters; Votemos.us considers their political substance through hypothetical voting rights, and Design for the Alien Within considers their safety.”
