It’s funny to me, being in sociology, that people who study Capital are all too eager to give over our labor power for free to billion dollar industries.

I’m not sure what it is that I’m having trouble articulating. But what I have been thinking about is how every use of the digital is […]

It adds a read later bookmark to your browser and then you can access that on […]

Besides just finding it on a search engine, how will people learn of […]

I don’t think we talked about in class but it has been on my mind […]

I have read Hayles, and I very much liked it. I haven’t read Curtis, but will do so.

As for the blog, I will be compiling resources, including lesson plans, but not creating new […]
