WatchWhat Ever Happened to the Book?
Finally, there is another path open for the literary text, one which refuses to ignore the medium that constitutes it, which embraces all of the ambiguity and multiplicity and liminality of hypertext. There have been numerous attempts at ‘hypertext fiction’; nearly all of them have been unreadable failures. But there is one text which stands apart, both...

Idolatry is revering and serving non-living entities and symbols as if they were alive and feeling beings. Idolatry is mistaking the symbol for Reality, putting the symbol above reality. We become the idol we revere and serve: unseeing, unhearing, unfeeling: both the Bhagavad Gita and the Bible say this (Bhagavad Gita 17:3 and Psalm 134:15-18)
What if we, whether Christians, Jews, or...

WatchHegel and Marx In this program, contemporary philosopher Peter Singer discusses rational Hegelian philosophy, and the historicism and organicism at its root. Hegel’s theories of absolute idealism and of a dialectic, emphasize history in their development of a model of reality. His concept of this reality as ultimately spiritual, and of philosophy as organic and constantly changing, is...

The attitude of the boycotter is that she or he has exited consumerism, but one could just as easily claim that this attitude is itself a form of consumerism, as I’ve just argued. It’s a performance of a certain style of aesthetic judgment. So thinking that you’ve exited consumerism might be the most quintessentially consumerist attitude of all…

“Before our white brothers came to civilize us we had no jails. Therefore we had no criminals. You can’t have criminals without a jail. We had no locks or keys, and so we had no thieves. If a man was so poor that he had no horse, tipi or blanket, someone gave him these things. We were too uncivilized to set much value on personal belongings. We wanted to have things only in order to give...

[poem] The Scrabble Day Trippers, 06.18.04
You hate to lose at Scrabble; especially the
way it loosens your resistance to loving me.
The interlaying of words is almost sexual: a
double letter French kiss, a triple word orgasm.
In the meantime of turns, you romanticize
the future through the context of our ocean
view: photography on Prince Edward Island
in a shack by a lighthouse. I, on the other
hand, am sentimental for the...
[new poem] Vague Fragrance Awakens, 08.07.09
Your vague fragrance awakens my amazement
Depths of breath warp the sleekness of your neck
So silent a song, I longingly guess
to what sweet whispers may slip from your lips
but only yet suggests
A response tempered by flinching reflex
in this fawning calm
A moment clear to harmonize
the subtle chorus resonating between us
Echoes through air, a web spun vibration
entangles our...

You are an open flame to the wind
growing brighter in the darkening hour.
Blush at the compliment your wick has left you
to fight the forces of blind defiance
with only the strength of your true light.
Burn until there’s...
