Abstract
This project both is and is not a dissertation. It will have very little neat or linear trajectories or previews. Instead, it is a wandering, an intentional compositional practice of mad composition’s rhetorical disobedience that refuses the linearity and continuity of colonial and white abled Reason. This project is unfinished, but it attempts to perform several interrogations, including the relationship between the psych ward and the prison through the context of abolitionist trajectories, an articulation of mad composition as a praxis, and the possibility for altogether otherwise forms of graduate education assessment beyond the dissertation. Just as I do in the project itself, so too will I ask here: why must the dissertation exist at all?
