I ha...I'm gonna say, this font is not pleasing. I hate to ask a Rhetor what he's doing (it's like asking a magician about his schtick — not quite egregious, unless one is kidding with the magic man... but, even that... to say something annoying, and then claim to be "joking" is terrible behavior), but if you're not partial, use the other one. <br /><br />Otherwise, I'm going to copy and paste them and change it myself. Which would be a quirk, so maybe you should stick with this one...

And the man is extended out into everything.<br />Its pure-trancendece. furthermore nun of this mediation makes the experience any more superficial then if it was unmediated. Each stage of mediation<br />caries its own essential element, its own character, its own message. A universe of total filtration is Total transcendence.dustygravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01877215902611486889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7461948747659071092.post-56658893510171642892011-04-21T04:41:54.180-07:002011-04-21T04:41:54.180-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.dustygravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01877215902611486889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7461948747659071092.post-3386194268679292172011-04-21T01:38:03.508-07:002011-04-21T01:38:03.508-07:00"Both are at once immediate and mediated by o..."Both are at once immediate and mediated by our fears, memories, desires, language, eyeballs."<br /><br /><br />This touches on something that fascinates me, The seemingly opposite ways that Mcluhan and Deleuze arrive at their supreme views of interconnectedness.<br />For mcluhan everything is mediated (metaphor)<br />and for deleuze nothing is mediated (representation).<br /><br />Mcluhan is all about transcendence he's a religious man. Deleuze insists on pure immanence, denise the transcendent. Mcluhan has no need for pure immanence, immanence for him can be imminent to any number of things God, the subject, a toaster, the virgin marry, the cinema, its all pure to him because every single thing is media. To both these philosophers the world is a flux, a flow of connections.<br /><br /> <br />I get the sense that if you put these two views together, anything would be possible.<br />You could build a monster with augustine's left hand,<br />heidegger's ears, and nietzsche's mustache.dustygravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01877215902611486889noreply@blogger.com
