Ói ó;..- Can Your Set Receive All Stations?' OVER 100 stations are broadcasting on less than 240 meters. How many are beyond the reach of your set? The Synchrophase can get them all. Grebe Low -Wave Extension Circuits make possible a range of from 550 down to 150 meters. This is accomplished by an auto- matic switch which enables one dial to cover two wave ranges. The first, from 550 to 240 meters, corresponds to the practical tuning range of the usual sét. The second overlaps this and extends down to 150 meters. To change from one range to the other is simplicity itself. Simply move the center dial past the 100 mark for the high range and beyond the zero mark for the low range. The Synchrophase is thus well -equipped to take care of future station assignments as well as all present ones. Ask your dealer to demonstrate this and other Grebe advances in radio development A. H.

  • Jesuit Church in G.” a Painter Per- Forms the Heroic Feat First of Constructing Perspective Under Tech- Nically Difficult Conditions
    Introduction Laurence A. Rickels “On the Genealogy of Media” invokes a tradition for thinking about technology, which passes from Nietzsche through Heidegger and Freud. As a collection on media, however, these texts gath- ered together in this special issue include few Nietzsche readings— or even Nietzsche references—in their thread count. Indeed, Nietzsche is not typically considered a thinker of media technol- ogies. But his genealogical interpretation of the Mass media as being on one uncanny continuum of valuation from Christianity to nihilism influenced, together with either Freud’s or Heidegger’s input, the media essays of Walter Benjamin as much as the media oeuvre of Friedrich Kittler. Following Nietzsche, then, a genealogy of media means, as in Heidegger’s questioning of technicity, that whatever technology may be it presupposes assumption of a certain (discursive) ready positioning for (and before) its advent as actual machines to which the understanding of technologization cannot be reduced. Freudian psychoanalysis views media technologies as prosthetically modeled after body parts and partings. A primary relationship to loss (as the always-new frontier of mourning where reality, the future, the other begin or begin again) is, on Freud’s turf and terms, the psychic ready position that is there before the event or advent of machinic externalities. In “A Mathematics of Finitude” Friedrich Kittler generates genealogies of “progress” in science, mathematics, and media span- ning centuries out of a single story by E. T. A. Hoffmann. Media machines are shown to intervene as makeshift stopgaps where the Discourse, 31.1 & 2, Winter & Spring 2009, pp. 3–8.
