CIXOUS, HÉLÈNE

Cixous called for a writing that flows from the body, refusing the closed economy of the phallic logos. CoCA's Layer Cake Pages (§2.2.2) practices this at the level of institutional history. The page is rewritten without erasing the prior writing; the body of the institution shows through its own redrafts. The Palimpsest is écriture féminine in the binder. The binder bleeds.
