- From the page: "How To Deconstruct Almost Anything - My Postmodern Adventure" Just a cynic techno-good viewer to laugh about my ironic intello-blinded mind...

- This was hard to read without filling a twang of indignation, but I have to give credit where credit is due. He touches upon some of the weaknesses of the field. Yet, you cannot get rid of it..."art for arts' sake" failed at the turn of the last century and led to crap writing. Criticism in its current state still functions as a valve regardless of its troubles. And I fear that this attack on deconstruction will actually hurt all the other diciplines (even the opponents of deconstruction)of literature as well. There will be a reckoning in the field soon...mark my words. Besides - I always thought felt that the act of criticism was to take apart a piece to understand it, then build it back up with your new found knowledge to make it more beautiful in your eyes. Deconstructionism feels like ripping apart art to make it dada.

- This is a great article...I have been to conferences where deleuze and guattari are discussed, and this article still rings quite a few bells (even though it shouldn't, academia has moved on since then). It is commonplace now for acadamia to be intimidated by folks who weave techno-speak in with their postmodern deconstruction, bless 'em...they will never get over it because of the massive pseudo-power-trip theyre on, ah well.

- Wow, wow, wow. I can't say enough of how awesome this article was. Just absolutely undresses academia, especially the humanities. Too much trivia going around there.

- From the page: "The essential paradigm of cyberspace is creating partially situated identities out of actual or potential social reality in terms of canonical forms of human contact, thus renormalizing the phenomenology of narrative space and requiring the naturalization of the intersubjective cognitive strategy, and thereby resolving the dialectics of metaphorical thoughts, each problematic to the other, collectively redefining and reifying the paradigm of the parable of the model of the metaphor."
Either you get the joke, or you dont.
This article is a bit dated as interdiciplinary studies is one of the new buzz words of Academics. Which in my humble opinion is quite a good thing. - From the page: "The essential paradigm of cyberspace is creating partially situated identities out of actual or potential social reality in terms of canonical forms of human contact, thus renormalizing the phenomenology of narrative space and requiring the naturalization of the intersubjective cognitive strategy, and thereby resolving the dialectics of metaphorical thoughts, each problematic to the other, collectively redefining and reifying the paradigm of the parable of the model of the metaphor."
