My favorite use of this website was years ago when iDRMRSR used it as
a response to purple! What a HOOT it was to see purple trying to analyze
it and make comparisons to his own post-modernist drivel!
Of course, iDRMRSR is old enough to be of the school that says, "When
WE were kids we didn't have X-Boxes and iPODS! We had to make our
OWN entertainment!"

Just because you can't tell the difference between serious scholarship
and computer generated blather doesn't mean no one else can.

Yeah, yeah.
Did you know there's no record of a census by Augustus or
any other roman emperor? Because they didn't collect taxes
by heads, but, rather more sensibly, by land owned.
And watchanow, there was no city of Nazareth until the
second century, at the earliest.
Clearly, Academia has failed, and must be replaced by
Jesuits, who can be trusted to bring forth the right
results. Or perhaps SubGenii, who can be trusted to bring
forth just about anything.
Isn't it time for a SubGenic expedition of
archaeology-adjacent persons to excavate the TRUTH about the
X-sists?

And their own stools, if they are not too drunk and there is enough
time, although there is an equal chance that if they do so, they will
just scratch the hell out of your car hood.

Validity is lodged in the prefrontal cortex of the believer,
just like that construction site worker
who got a pipe through the head
and ceased to have any short-term memory storage,
resulting in no LONG-term storage.
He came to a mental halt with whatever he had
on his meat-disk at that point.
This is a perfect description of religious or political zealotry.
Failure or success seem to have been
allotted to men by their stars.
But they retain the power of wriggling,
of fighting with their star or against it
and in the whole universe,
the only really interesting movement
is this wriggle.

I just finished reading Sheila Watson's invaluable PhD thesis (1964) on
Wyndham Lewis. Like Don Theall's PhD (1954), it reveals much of what
McLuhan was teaching to his classes in the early Fifties.
Theall's is on Yeats, Pound, Eliot, and Joyce. He did not have the time
to add Lewis to the four, although MM was hoping he would. So Lewis
eventually ended up in Watson's care.
What I get from Watson's work is how Lewis intuited the TV Body (the
media "EN BLOC") so he was a big factor in McLuhan's strategy and style
in the Fifties, what some of us call the "early McLuhan."
As McLuhan encountered the "seamless web" of the Sixties, he shifted to
Joyce and Finnegans Wake as his figure for perceptually presenting in
his books his intuition of the post-media Android Meme - what I regard
as the Chip Body. This leads to the "later McLuhan" and is probably one
of the reasons why conventional McLuhan scholars missed the significance
of Lewis.
"... the earth has in fact become one big village with telephones laid
from one end to the other, and air transport both safe and speedy." -
Wyndham Lewis, America and Cosmic Man, (London: Nicholson and Watson),
1948, p.16
"America and Cosmic Man (1948) is the equivalent of the 1919 Caliph's
Design: politically more informed and culturally more open-minded and
democratic than the earlier work, for [Wyndham] Lewis had learnt in the
forties to appreciate the popular culture of the United States, which he
found so much more fertile than the class-ridden gentility of England.
America and Cosmic Man predicts and welcomes the forthcoming
universality of that eclectic and 'rootless' culture. It is the first
celebration of what is now called the Post-modern condition, and,
appropriately enough, it shaped the ideas of Marshall McLuhan,
Post-modernity's first prophet." - Paul Edwards (b.1950, Senior Lecturer
in English at Bath Spa University College), Wyndham Lewis: Painter and
Writer, Yale University Press (583 page coffee-table type book with many
images), 2000, pp.5-6
"Wyndham Lewis is perhaps the first creative writer to have taken over
the new media EN BLOC as modes of artistic and social control. (Joyce
and Eliot have done so on a smaller scale.) In Apes of God, Pierpont's
'broadcasting' is central to the esthetic effect of that work. In The
Childermass, movie dissolve and montage are the very mode of
presentation of scene and character. The effect of daily technological
and social change in society at large is encoded in the Marx-brother
sequences between the characters Pullman and Satters:..." - Marshall
McLuhan, Third Program in the Human Age, Explorations #8, 1957, p.17 (in
the second section)
Watson provides, for me, an interesting hint of Lewis's artistic
strategy anticipating the Rumplestiltskin effect in the AM/AP situation
of today:
"Lewis defined clearly the relationship of this individual stranger to
any fully working patriarchal or communistic unit. His function was to
give 'a personal form to all the anonymous outer power of the
universe... against which - on usurious terms and in exchange for
service and taxes, or, if a king's man tallage - he agreed to protect
them. He was their ENEMY, a representative of the outer hostile world,
between whom and themselves the terms of propitiation and sacrifice had
been systematized. It was a pagan, human arrangement and naturally with
the Reformation it disappeared." - Sheila Watson, Wyndham Lewis and
Expressionism (PhD 1964, published by MLR Editions Canada, Wilfrid
Laurier University, Waterloo, Ontario, 2003), p.105
