[…]world without the need for a curator at all. Whatever the form criticism might take—composition studies, literary close reading, digital humanities—if it doesn’t acknowledge the material base of its own production, the research obscures rather than clarifies, dehumanizes rather than liberates. How to be an Intellectual is a book that keeps that frame in focus, and contributes to our understanding of how criticism is produced by people who are themselves products of critical institutions. Work Cited Williams, Jeffrey J. How to Be an Intellectual: Essays on Criticism, Culture, and the University. New York: Fordham University Press, […]

[…]come to terms with “our” new place within the current situation and environment—but the “critical” in critical posthumanism signals that it would be equally foolish to let go of the terrain that has always constituted the humanities’ stronghold, namely language and, for want of a better word, philology. The critical expertise that is arguably needed most in such uncertain and hyper-political times is the kind of radical but also caring critique of language practiced by poststructuralism and deconstruction at their best. In short, to be critical of posthumanism (the discourse) one must pay close attention to what it says (about […]
[…]these functions, the data from updates is used to monitor software behaviors and scan the source code of files. These scans may occur as users open individual files or during periodic total system scans. If malicious code is detected, the system sends another ghostly signal, in the form of a pop-up notice, that it has found an infection. These signals tend to include signifiers of heightened alarm, through the heavy use of the color red, alarm symbols, and exclamation points. However, the alarm in these cases is generally directed at the anticipated future of what could have been. The invisible […]
[…]ability to innovate and increase productivity” (Brynjolfsson and McAfee 4). Others in the second group attribute the decline not to a shortcoming in America’s ability to innovate, but to the ability of other countries to develop at a more rapid pace. The third group, those who anticipate the “end of work,” include Jeremy Rifkin, who argues in his 1995 book The End of Work that technology is bringing about these sweeping changes and will replace workers. Brynjolfsson and McAfee are not as pessimistic as those in the “end of work” camp and believe that not enough attention is being paid […]
[…]to which flesh and blood readers can read and assign meaning (potential or delayed meaning) to any code, including machine readable codes. “The New Art [says Carrión] appeals to the ability every man has to understand and create signs and systems of signs” (61). Because they point to different material facets in BPaS, the QR codes are, thus, instances of non-figurative language that further emphasize the structure and configuration of the textual environment. Carrion’s systems of signs can too be taken to think about the textual environment at large that has been created by Borsuk and Bouse and is re-created […]
[…]how intensities can become extensive, moving from the infra-individual outwards towards the group or from the group towards new members, but the volume would benefit by discussing the relational field of affect across the flows of capital as they play out in groups. That, or perhaps it’s better not to think about changing the world at all. The better part of me sees Massumi’s work as interested not in changing or reversing the neoliberal course, but instead to use joy as did the Zapatistas—to create new worlds inside the old. The third thought follows from the second. Missing from the […]
[…]his spinning of gears, keeping body and soul together as a studio hack, constantly writing and reworking scenes for MGM and other studios that are dismissed, written over, projects stalled and discontinued. O’Nan deftly weaves in just enough dialogue scenes with familiar literary and Hollywood names to keep inquiring readers on point and alert: Humphrey Bogart and his aggressive wife, Mayo Methot, Ernest Hemingway, Nathanael West, Dorothy Parker, Joan Crawford, and Robert Benchley, as well as the usual Fitzgerald suspects, his secretary Frances Kroll, a young Budd Schulberg, and of course, Sheilah Graham, who tolerantly and doggedly comes to Scott’s […]
[…]the question, “How does the work happen in the traffic between people, their formation into a group, a coterie, an office, a class, an institution, a public, a counter-public, a school, a neighborhood, a network?” (27). In the case of McSweeney’s, an impetus to this formation is the effort of its founder, the novelist Dave Eggers, to create an aura, not only of “anticommercial” artistic authenticity, but also of interpersonal authenticity. Hungerford discovers this aura in the publication’s offices (35), where an active social scene merges with the scene of production, providing workers who lack Eggers’s celebrity with a valuable […]
[…]that,” manifest itself in postmodern poetry? What does that tell us about artists and writers working within the remit of postmodernism and, furthermore, what might their work then tell us about postmodernism as a moment – or a series of moments – in literary history? Stein’s “Present Spot of Time” In many ways, Gertrude Stein can be viewed as an early exemplar of postmodern literature, and many postmodern scholars have sought to claim her as such (Berry 1992; Perloff 2002; Schmitz 1986). In her early compositions we can detect a number of characteristics that would later become synonymous with postmodern […]
