    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, A Delightful Caribbean Vacation

    Chy — you seem really skeptical of the ellipsis (& rhizomatic projects/constructions) here, and perhaps for good reason. I think your comment about pleasure is particularly instructive and productive, by the wa […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, In Defense of Windbags.

    “The novel’s companion site is the book’s appendix—if one visits the site without reading the book, the site is useless.”

    This assertion — and your comments around hypertext, linearity, and how to “use” th […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, As Flies to Whatless Boys, aka Technological Ruminations

    “As such I think we might consider As Flies to Whatless Boys’s website as an exploration into the ways in which evolutions in technology overlap/ draw on previous iterations/ construct something new. The website i […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, Making Archives, Archiving the Internet, and Archival Projects

    I think an Archive of Violence might best exist not as a new archive, but rather a organizing structure which laterally connects to other, existent (digital or “real”), archives and makes connections across bor […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, What Do We Talk About When We Talk About The Computer?

    If we’re spawning paradoxes here —

    I’ve pulled out a couple of your statements that I’m wondering if you can or would like to talk more about. First, the following argument: that “to imprint our images upon t […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, Naniki, the story,

    Aaron, I’m particularly interested in what you (and to a certain extent, Chy as well) suggest here, a reaching toward “a plethora of ways of talking about textualities of technologies.”

    If “each […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, Simultaneously Necessary and Impossible: the Uneven Archive

    “One thing I’d like to point out is that the internet itself is a giant archive (though unstable). As such the same sort of concerns about the constructed boundaries (this website vs. that, who visits where, e […]

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, Best and Venegas: A Dialogue

    “Though Best’s reflections on the intersections between space, place, and technology in the Caribbean were generative and interesting, his focus on making technology fundamentally flawed was puzzling to me, as t […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, the giving-voice-to

    Returning to this post after last week’s class discussion, Aaron, I want to connect your reading of Majah Hype/the Di Rass character with some of the issues of production, reception, and (for lack of a better […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, Site Review: Slave Revolt in Jamaica, 1760-1761

    Lindsay, I’m finding this review really helpful for me as I think about how to most effectively map out (pun not intended) my final project — though I’m primarily trying to “map” an archive rather than an event, I […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, Naniki + Murray’s Digital Environment

    Jeff, I’m interested in your idea that Murray’s engagement with the Victorians shapes her outlook on technology. It’s interesting that she began as a Victorianist before engaging with techno-pedagogy, and that she […]

    The Digital Caribbean

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, Naniki, the story,

    “Rather, it’s an example of digital storytelling which invents new models while also drawing on older ones.”

    Yep. Revisiting last week’s readings, I actually feel like Punday’s reclamation of the word […]

    Maxine Anderson commented on the post, The present absence of women and gender

    Benitez-Rojo: “Let’s be realistic: the Atlantic is the Atlantic … because it was once engendered by the copulation of Europe … because Europe, in its mercantilist laboratory, conceived the project of […]
