A Publication of –Empyre- Soft-Skinned Space A publication of –empyre- soft-skinned space Sydney, Australia January 2007 A collaboration with documenta 12 magazine project Featuring special guests Melinda Rackham Chris Molinski Claudia Reiche Ollivier Dyens Christiane Robbins Ricardo Rosas Illyana Nedkova Sharon Daniel Deborah Kelly And moderator Christina McPhee On the topic “what is to be done (education)? “ edited linear pdf from the original hypertext archived at https://mail.cofa.unsw.edu.au/pipermail/empyre/2007-January Introduction by Christina McPhee, January 5, 2007 This month we are returning to the Documenta Magazine Project www.documenta12.de/english/magazines.html , in which we’re collaborating with Documenta to generate a discussion around “what is to be done (education)?” Background: the editors of Documenta Magazine project approached us last year to integrate a series of three questions into this year’s programming (2006), with an eye towards publishing some of our conversation in 2007 in connection with the launch of Documenta 12 , in Kassel, Germany. It’s been a pleasure to already launch one such conversation, “Is Modernity our Antiquity?” in March 2006. https://mail.cofa.unsw.edu.au/pipermail/empyre/2006-March and “What is Bare Life?” https://mail.cofa.unsw.edu.au/pipermail/empyre/2006-July/ This month marks our third and last collaboration with Documenta. Posts from readers, especially the quiet ones, are most welcome. If you want to post in a language other than English, please feel free to do so, Editor’s introduction: Are we at the margins of a huge flattening and empty-ing out process leaving the shells of modern structures yet producing something of an ethos, a critical space? A 'third space' (Soja) always destabilzing a dialectical or binary debate or opposition -- what Bojana Cvejic speaks of as 'affirming positive practices' and 'enabling a heterogenesis' ? " Artists educate themselves by working through form and subject matter; audiences educate themselves by experiencing things aesthetically. How to mediate the particular content or shape of those things without sacrificing their particularity is one of the great challenges of an exhibition like documenta. But there is more to it than that. The global complex of cultural translation that seems to be somehow embedded in art and its mediation sets the stage for a potentially all-inclusive public debate (Bildung, the German term for education, also means "generation" or "constitution," as when one speaks of generating or constituting a public sphere). Today, education seems to offer one viable alternative to the devil (didacticism, academia) and the deep blue sea (commodity fetishism)." --Roger Beurgel, artistic director, documenta 12 -------------------------------------------------------------- >Ricardo Rosas (BR) editor of the Rizoma e-magazine and a former member of the Midiatatica.org network.

  • (King Philip's War), 1675-1676 Dissertation Presented in Partial
    Connecticut Unscathed: Victory in The Great Narragansett War (King Philip’s War), 1675-1676 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Major Jason W. Warren, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: John F. Guilmartin Jr., Advisor Alan Gallay, Kristen Gremillion Peter Mansoor, Geoffrey Parker Copyright by Jason W. Warren 2011 Abstract King Philip’s War (1675-1676) was one of the bloodiest per capita in American history. Although hostile native groups damaged much of New England, Connecticut emerged unscathed from the conflict. Connecticut’s role has been obscured by historians’ focus on the disasters in the other colonies as well as a misplaced emphasis on “King Philip,” a chief sachem of the Wampanoag groups. Although Philip formed the initial hostile coalition and served as an important leader, he was later overshadowed by other sachems of stronger native groups such as the Narragansetts. Viewing the conflict through the lens of a ‘Great Narragansett War’ brings Connecticut’s role more clearly into focus, and indeed enables a more accurate narrative for the conflict. Connecticut achieved success where other colonies failed by establishing a policy of moderation towards the native groups living within its borders. This relationship set the stage for successful military operations. Local native groups, whether allied or neutral did not assist hostile Indians, denying them the critical intelligence necessary to coordinate attacks on Connecticut towns. The English colonists convinced allied Mohegan, Pequot, and Western Niantic warriors to support their military operations, giving Connecticut forces a decisive advantage in the field.

Abstract: We associate screens as information surfaces with western technological achievements and media cultural hegemony. The fact that similar screens are observed and manipulated in all cor- ners of the world is taken as a sign of the increasing homogeniza- tion of culture; a ‘global screen practice’ seems to be in the mak- ing. Still, although they may not have used the word screen, dif- ferent cultures have developed “screen practices” in very diverse cultural contexts for hundreds and even thousands of years. From the shadow theatre to the traditions of visual storytelling, screens have been used in countless forms, and associated with complex social, economic and ideological issues. Do these tradi- tions play any role at all when it comes to understanding contem- porary high-tech screen practices? Is there anything we could 1 possibly learn from studying them? This paper proposes a media- archaeological approach to understanding screens as intercul- tural information surfaces. Drawing on fields like visual anthro- pology and comparative cultural studies, it looks at screens from an extended perspective, making a contribution to “screenology”, a hypothetical field of study. Bio: Erkki Huhtamo is a media archaeologist, writer, and exhibition curator. He was born in Helsinki, Finland (1958) and works as Professor of Media History and Theory at the University of Cali- fornia Los Angeles (UCLA), Department of Design | Media Arts.

  • The Silver Surfer Story/Outline
    THE SILVER SURFER STORY/OUTLINE DRAFT 1 “BATTLECRY” WRITTEN BY LARRY BRODY TEASER 1. EXT. THE SOUL MASTER DIMENSION. A scene we’ve witnessed before—but a more pleasant version this time. It’s the SILVER SURFER, SHALLA BAL, and the VIRAL OVERMIND, working together to save Zenn-La and the rest of the planets in this dimension. Except that this time Shalla Bal is not left behind. Instead, she makes it through just in time, rushing into the Silver Surfer’s arms! The Surfer starts to kiss her, and now Shalla Bal vanishes, only her voice remaining, crying out that she is in a dark, frightening place, and begging for the Surfer’s help in getting her out. 2. EXT. SPACE NEAR ZENN-LA. The Surfer soars all around, searching—and awakens to discover that he is flying upward from the now safe Zenn-La…and that everything that just happened was a dream. Yet even now he hears Shalla 2 Bal calling to him, her voice fading out only after the dream has ended. 3. As the Surfer ponders this, he realizes that he is hearing another distress call through a COM BEAM. It’s the leader of a group of REFUGEES, fleeing from a planet that has just fallen to the KREE EMPIRE, and asking for a safe haven. Right behind the Refugees is a KREE FLEET, and the pursuers begin FIRING THEIR ENERGY WEAPONS, hitting not only the Refugees but the Silver Surfer as well! He’s hit again and again in rapid succession, reeling weakly to one knee, as we FADE OUT.

"Don't Point that Gun at My Mum: Geriatric Zombies" in The Walking Med. Eds. Lorenzo Servitje and Sherryl Vint. University Park PA: Penn State University Press, 2016. Publisher link. © 2016 Penn State University Press. Used with permission. Some images have been removed from this version of the chapter due to third-party copyright restrictions. 1 • DON'T POINT THAT GUN AT MY MUM Geriatric Zombies Gerry Canavan Academic analyses of zombie narratives have tended to read these stories as genocidal fantasies of unrestricted violence against monstrous Others with whom no sympathy is possible and who, as a result, can be murdered without guilt. The typical critical move, that is, has been to read such stories meta­ phorically, as murderous ideation against the raced, classed, and colonized subjects whose extermination is no longer wished for openly but whose dif­ ference is still _perceived as a dire threat to white middle-class subjectivity in the industrialized West. 1 This is true even of more politically utopian readings of zombie narrative, such as Sarah Juliet Lauro and Karen Embry's widely cited ''A Zombie Manifesto" (2oo8), which accedes to the basic terms of the violence but chooses instead to take the zombies' side, identifying their bru­ tal destruction of the existing order as a sideways vision of a longed-for revolution. Novels, films, and video games may nominally be about fantastic encounters with zombies (or robots, or orcs, or alien invaders, or sentient apes), the argument goes, but on the more abstract level of ideology they are actually about reproducing and/or critically reexamining cultural narratives about who in real-world society is "killable" and who is not.

  • Eons Ago, the Alien Race Known As the Kree
    Eons ago, the alien race known as the Kree experimented upon early man, imbuing some of them with heightened physical and mental power—and the potential to manifest amazing abilities. These humans became THE INHUMANS. After the Kree abandoned them as a failed — experiment, they discovered a way to unlock those abilities using the mystery element TERRIGEN. Millennia passed. In the modern day, the Inhumans—ruled by their king, BLACK BOLT, and queen, MEDUSA— established a home for themselves outside Manhattan called NEW ATTILAN. But after Terrigen was released into the atmosphere, the Inhumans learned it was lethal to mutants, and so Medusa made the decision to destroy the Terrigen, meaning there will now be no more new Inhumans. As a result, she — abdicated the throne leaving the Inhumans without their Royals.

As the Avengers face Karnak, who has discovered the Inhumans secret, Medusa struggles to rule her vastly increased population, and Marvels heroes - including the Hulk, Spider-Girl, the X-Men, the new Illuminati, Iron Man, the Jean Grey School, Avengers Academy, Luke Cage and the Superior Spider- Man - must cope with the fallout!COLLECTING: Avengers Assemble 21.INH-23.INH, 24-25; Inhumanity 1-2; Uncanny X-Men 15.INH; Indestructible Hulk 17.INH-18.INH, 19; New Avengers 13.INH; Iron Man 20. The individual stories dealing with how the particular characters deal with the crisis arent bad, but the main story isnt resolved in any kind of meaningful way. It starts after the terrigen bomb/Attilan explodes, but ends before the crisis is over. For a collection as big as this, you kind of expect some sort of resolution. In the blurb for the book it says, Black Bolt is believed dead, then he appears in the final (almost unrelated) story with no explanation whatsoever as to what the hell happened with him and his brother.
