Finally saw THE BRIDE! It’s a mess, but what else Is a monster movie supposed to be? I preferred it to the seriousness of last year‘s Frankenstein. Felt like the return of postmodernism.

Few pre-book copies of "Unlimited: Aspirational Politics and Mobile Media Distribution" arrived in package, and some kind endorsements from scholars whom I deeply respect. The book is going to be published in late March through MIT Press.

CFP: Stanford-Leuphana Summer Academy on Humanities and Media 2026: Periodization After a one-year hiatus, the Stanford-Leuphana Summer Academy on Humanities and Media is back!

Periodizations—whether in the form of epochs, ages, turning points, or more heroic “eras”—belong to the most fundamental and at the same time most frequently contested historiographical operations in literary, art, and media studies.
