Marx I am here to fight for truth, justice and the American way. —Superman 1978 It's too bad for us "literary" enthusiasts, but it's the truth nevertheless—pictures tell any story more effectively than words. —W. M. Moulton (creator of Wonder Woman, and pioneer polygrapher) In Guernica Picasso expresses the tragedy that is taking place without showing piles of bloody flesh. The import- tant thing in art is after all to transpose reality into an image which is sufficiently enthralling and meaningful so that the viewer gets an even better grasp of that reality. —Jacques Ellul1 Gary T. Marx received his PhD from the University of California, Berkeley. He has held positions there and at Harvard and the University of Colorado. He is Professor Emeritus MIT and the author of Protest and Prejudice (1967); Undercover: Police Surveillance in America (1988); Undercover: Police Surveillance in Comparative Perspective (with C.J. Fijnaut 1995); Windows into the Soul: Surveillance and Society in an Age of High Technology (2017) and articles in the scholarly and popular press. He is rooted in the sociology of knowledge and in the centrality of reflexivity, but with the firm conviction that there are transcendent truths to pursue and fight for.

It provides historical and contextual background for the development of the vidding community, and explores the role of agency among this specialised audience community. Utilising semiotic theory, it offers a theoretical language for understanding the structure and function of remix videos.

Steeped in more than 125 years of tradition and a proud history that runs deep and strong, the Maritime College remains a premier institution and a global leader in the field of maritime education and training. We intend to maintain such leadership through a continuing process of strategic improvement of our programs and facilities as well as key engagements and focused outreach to leading industries and academic institutions across a variety of fronts, both nationally and internationally. I can state without reservation that few colleges offer you the combination of such a highly respected academic degree with a strong, hands-on practical component (including Summer Sea Terms onboard our training ship Empire State VI), the opportunity to obtain a Merchant Marine officer’s license, a commission in the armed services if you choose, and the unsurpassed leadership opportunities availavle in the Regiment of Cadets. Indeed few such opportunities in life allow you to grow so rapidly and develop both leadership and technical competencies, which are in high demand in today’s globally integrated and complex environment.
