@shapirostephen @angelamcrobbie All this then raises the Q: what happened? Why the initial connection…and then distance…or circumspection?

Frederic Jameson (1934-2024) may not have identified w/ cultural studies, but his ideas, teachings, and writings were certainly adjacent. He's left an indelible mark on the field. Thank you, Fred. Here's his 1993 review of the Cultural Studies "doorstop" https://t.co/MqD04h9BAr

@MarcusBreen1 Watch out for all those Marxist 2nd grade teachers. And don't forget about that cabal secretly running your university's business school

@David_Gunkel @JWI_Berlin It's a really good time to revisit & revise Flusser's essay

[Ted Striphas @striphas]

@David_Gunkel Absolutely correct. Few substantive or worthwhile insights (present company excluded...)

@RaymondKeywords Culture +is+ ordinary…
