Congrats, that's really awesome! I'm still impatiently waiting to hear from them, and it seems to me that  they're not following their previous notification pattern (yes, I'm now researching patterns). I mean, I assume it's a no, but hoping for a maybe? Anyway, the department looks super cool, I'm crossing my fingers for you ?

I argue in my sample that Spirited Away's narrative calls attention to the flexible metaphysics of the animated mise en scene by staging encounters with fantastical and transforming bodies. These encounters foreground both the cognitive processes and cultural presuppositions that undergird affective responses to the body—particularly disgust, which in philosophy/aesthetics has been a sly and unstable strategy to delimit what kinds of bodies are and are not "acceptable." I argue that Miyazaki's grotesque, intensely corporeal imagery is designed to elicit and subsequently undermine disgust, in line with Sianne Ngai's and Eugenie Brinkema's critiques of the affect as theoretically centerless, predicated on rejection and ultimately self-defeating. The film goes on to develop a more emotionally and dialectically positive intervention, constructing a pluralistic poetics of the body that highlights the redemptive potential of empathy and physical contact.

I definitely prefer to use IRs so that I don't basically go through rejections twice.
