   Author = {Beaver, BK},
   Title = {The Kardashians, Live! Fabricating Liveness in the
             Sex-Tape-Derived Reality Series},
   Journal = {Television and New Media},
   Year = {2024},
   Month = {January},
   url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/15274764231221764},
   Abstract = {This article explores the fabrication of liveness,
             understood as a category of affective urgency and narrative
             motivation, in two reality series derived from a sex tape
             scandal: Keeping Up with the Kardashians and The
             Kardashians. The reality programs narratively incorporate
             Kim’s live TV appearances to compensate for the sex tape
             intertext’s incomplete liveness. Consequently, the
             Kardashian series suggest that live TV might imbue other
             media genres, like reality TV and sex tapes, with the
             liveness those genres only partially replicate. At the same
             time, the Kardashian series indicate a deficiency in live
             TV’s intertextual influence. The two series necessitate
             artificial liveness, produced through esthetic techniques,
             and simulated liveness, manufactured from imitations of live
             TV, to bolster the liveness of Kim’s live TV appearances.
             The Kardashians’s intertext, Saturday Night Live,
             clarifies this complication in live TV’s intertextual
             impact by parodying live TV’s decline as the dominant
             medium for liveness.},

             film, and the new millennium},

   Abstract = {It is the beginning of the new millennium. Globalization is
             picking up the pace, and Marxist media theorists warn about
             affective and ‘immaterial’ modes of extraction, as well
             as the rise of the attention economy. It is within this web
             of post-Fordist anxieties and chameleonic, flexible
             mechanisms of control that Thomas Elsaesser first charts the
             rise of the mind-game phenomenon, in his 2009 article ‘The
             Mind-Game Film’. Elsaesser and his successors perceptively
             trace the mind-game film back to a range of global
             conditions and technological innovations which marked the
             passage from the twentieth to twenty-first centuries, from
             interactive VCR and DVD technology to confrontations with
             post-colonial Others. However, little-to-no mind-game
             scholarship thus far has centered the rise of Web 2.0 and
             the concurrent privatization of the Internet; furthermore,
             with the obvious exception of the Matrix trilogy, the
             mind-bending hacker films of the 1980s and 1990s (e.g.
             WarGames, Sneakers, The Net) have been largely overlooked as
             mind-game and mind-game-adjacent films. Accordingly, this
             paper examines whether and how the hacker film might be
             folded into the broader field of mind-game
             scholarship.},

@book{fds294195,

   Title = {POLYHYMNIA: THE RHETORIC OF HORATION LYRIC
             DISCOURSE},
   Pages = {1-282},
   Publisher = {University of California Press},
   Year = {2023},
   Month = {January},
   ISBN = {0520070771},
   Abstract = {Horace's Odes have a surface translucency that belies their
             rhetorical sophistication. Gregson Davis brings together
             recent trends in the study of Augustan poetry and critical
             theory and deftly applies them to individual poems.
             Exploring four rhetorical strategies—what he calls modes
             of assimilation, authentication, consolation, and praise and
             dispraise—Davis produces enlightening, new interpretations
             of this classic work. Polyhymnia, named after one of the
             Muses invoked in Horace's opening poem, revises the common
             image of Horace as a complacent, uncomplicated, and
             basically superficial singer. Focusing on the artistic
             persona—the lyric "self" that is constituted in the
             text—Davis explores how the lyric speaker constructs
             subtle "arguments" whose building-blocks are topoi,
             recurrent motifs, and generic conventions. By examining the
             substructure of lyric argument in groupings of poems sharing
             similar strategies, the author discloses the major
             principles that inform Horatian lyric composition.},

   Year = {2023},
   Month = {November},
   url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/09213740231206103},
   Abstract = {I read Denise Ferreira da Silva’s Unpayable Debt as an
             experiment that adopts “the wounded captive body in the
             scene of subjugation” as an epistemological standpoint.
             This situates her project in line with a tradition of
             standpoint theories that adopt, for instance, the
             proletarian or the feminist standpoint in similar ways.
             These standpoints grant us not only a superior knowledge of
             the current social order, highlighting its hierarchies, but
             also provide a political ground for seeking to abolish the
             structures of domination. Ferreira da Silva’s argument
             diverges, however, in that her standpoint does not present a
             subject to be affirmed, as do the other theories, but rather
             one that must also be abolished. In this sense, I interpret
             the aim of da Silva’s book to be a double
             abolition.},

   Abstract = {The 1970s was a decade of "subversives". Faced with various
             progressive and revolutionary social movements, the forces
             of order-politicians, law enforcement, journalists, and
             conservative intellectuals-saw subversives everywhere. From
             indigenous peasant armies and gay liberation organizations,
             to anti-nuclear activists and Black liberation militants,
             subversives challenged authority, laid siege to the
             established order, and undermined time-honored ways of life.
             Every corner of the left was fertile ground for subversive
             elements, which the forces of order had to root out and
             destroy-a project they pursued with zeal and
             brutality.},

   Abstract = {A prerequisite for today’s most powerful social movements
             is not only to analyze the interwoven and mutually
             constitutive nature of different structures of power but
             also to discover the means to articulate in a coherent
             organizational project diverse struggles for liberation,
             including, among others, those focused on class, race,
             sexuality, and gender. This article focuses on the ways that
             activists and theorists in the 1970s framed and addressed
             the political problematic of multiplicity and articulation.
             In some respects, one can trace back to that period the
             beginnings of contemporary practices and paradigms, but, in
             other ways, the theorizing and organizing of the 1970s were
             actually ahead of us, and our task is to catch up to those
             earlier projects for liberation.},

   Abstract = {The human aura is now being subverted by a variety of
             simulacra. OpenAI’s language-generation program GPT-3
             illustrates the challenges of interpreting
             algorithmic-generated texts. This article advocates
             interpretive strategies that recognize the profound
             differences (in the case of GPT-3) of language that issues
             from a program that has a model only of language, not of the
             world. Conscious robots, when and if they emerge, will have
             profoundly different embodiments than humans. Fictions that
             imagine conscious robots thus face a similar challenge
             presented by the GPT-3 texts: will they gloss over the
             differences, or will they enact strategies that articulate
             the differences and explore their implications for humans
             immersed in algorithmic cultures? The author analyzes three
             contemporary novels that engage with this challenge: Annalee
             Newitz’s Autonomous (2017), Kuzuo Ishiguro’s Klara and
             the Sun (2021), and Ian McEwan’s Machines like Me (2019).
             Each interrogates how the human aura is subverted by
             conscious robots. The article concludes by proposing how a
             reconfigured human aura should be constituted.},

             from Immanuel Kant to Gilles Deleuze, Michel Foucault, and
             Jean-François Lyotard. It demonstrates the centrality of

             underscored by the “bar” or so-called vinculum (a
             mathematical term). It ultimately concludes that the
             weakness or dialectical contradiction of the thus
             differentiated entities lies in their tendency to fold back
             into each other, returning to the One which it was the

             pro-democracy protest in South Korea—entered UNESCO’s
             Memory of the World Register in 2011. UNESCO’s inclusion
             provided international recognition for the Uprising after
             censorship under the Chun Doo-hwan regime; however, the
             narrative clarity presented through photographs, documents,
             and testimony in the museum now defines and limits

             There a Petal Silently Falls imagines what lies beyond
             archives. With its silent protagonist and fragmented,
             sometimes illegible prose, Petal interrogates the coherence
             of memory when stripped of testimony. Reading Petal and the
             Archives as distinct memory sites, this article questions
             how memory projects privilege evidentiary archives, which
             might perpetuate the very patterns of violence such projects

             increasingly predominant, Ch’oe’s novella reasserts not
             only that the agony of memory can exceed the intelligibility
             of the archive, but that it must.},

             Russell’s concern with immediate experience

             an era of changes. In the era of changes (1500-2000) or the
             era of the Westernization of the world, changes were linear
             and within the frame of the colonial matrix of power. The
             concepts of newness, evolution, development, transition, and
             postmodernity are concepts singling out the changes in a
             linear, universal time. The change of era cannot be
             understood as a transition in the linear time of Western
             modernity but as an explosion and the reconstitutions of
             planetary cultural times. That explosion marks the advent of
             the third nomos of the Earth and the dispute for control of
             the colonial matrix of power by states not grounded in
             Western political theory and beyond the scope of
             international relations after the Treaty of Westphalia
             (1648). Russia's 2022 special operation in Ukraine,
             responding to NATO's provocations, with the collaboration of
             Ukrainian government, to "contain" Russia, is a signpost of
             the change of era and the advent of the multipolar world
             order that is tantamount with the advent of the third nomos
             of the Earth. The second nomos, the Carl Schmitt narrative,
             was tantamount with the Westernization of the world and the

             former colonies outside the West with the political
             domination they suffer from their Western counterparts.
             Decolonial thought, by exploring global epistemic designs,
             can fully explain such political dependency, which, for
             Aníbal Quijano, results from the local elites’ goal to
             racially identify with their Western peers
             (self-humanization), obstructing local nationalization. We
             explore why the racially dehumanized local elites believe
             they can humanize themselves. Our claim is that this happens
             because of modernity’s pretense that everyone can become
             civilized and, thereby, human, hiding the fact that hu(man)s
             are only heterosexual men that are simultaneously Western,
             white and Christian. Only by focusing on the enunciation of
             Western knowledge, instead of on its enunciated content, can
             we make that argument.},

             matrix of power from the sixteenth century until today.
             Reading Schmitt from Quijano, this chapter recasts both
             stories in terms of – on the one hand – Westernization
             of the world (1500–2000), the emergence of inter-state
             de-Westernization and the drive toward multipolarity, and
             the counterreformation of re-Westernization to maintain
             unipolarity of the global order. And, on the other hand, it
             also traces the emergence of pluriversality and the closing
             of universality in the sphere of ideas and praxis of living
             managed by the people, neither by the State nor by consumer
             persuaders and digital managers of desires. Both

             is a statement highlighting two Western concepts “space”

             civilizations, before 1500, have and care about these two
             concepts introduced in the vernacular modern European
             languages. I use the example of ancient Nahuatl speakers in
             the Valley of Mexico, since I cannot go through planetary
             civilization, to sustain my argument. Nahualts stressed
             places, directions and landscapes (e.g., the condition of
             the land in a given place), rather than space. I am not
             comparing two cosmologies but looking into their
             entanglement since 1500 and the power differential that set
             up the privileges-through today-of Western civilization over
             the others. It is a gnoseological argument that situates
             Western epistemology in its limited and well-deserved place.
             It is also a political and ethical argument relevant to what
             we in the planet are witnessing both at the inter-state
             conflict and in resurgence of the pollical society
             displacing the “social and the individual” separated

             auditory surveillance of queer life. Refunctionalizing its
             tools of espionage as poetic tactics, Schuyler eavesdrops on
             errant conversations (the espoused) and joining (espousing)
             them in paratactic assembly. In so doing, Schuyler expands
             José Esteban Muñoz’s “queer optic,” the utopian
             capacity to see beauty amidst ruins, beyond the visual into
             a queer otic that drags into being a world of freer
             espousal. I survey the aural surveillance of mid-century
             queer life before tracing Schuyler’s détournement of
             bugging, wiretapping, and overhearing in his 1969 Freely
             Espousing . In turn, I uncover the queer political

   Month = {May},
   Abstract = {In nineteenth-century imperial Germany and the
             Austro-Hungarian Empire, new scientific fields like
             psychophysics, empirical psychology, clinical psychiatry,
             and neuroanatomy transformed the understanding of mental
             life in ways long seen as influencing modernism. Turning to
             the history of psychiatric classification for mental
             illnesses, Cate I. Reilly argues that modernist texts can be
             understood as critically responding to objective scientific
             models of the psyche, not simply illustrating their
             findings. Modernist works written in industrializing Central
             and Eastern Europe historicize the representation of
             consciousness as a quantifiable phenomenon within
             techno-scientific modernity. Looking beyond modernism’s
             well-studied relationship to psychoanalysis, this book tells
             the story of the non-Freudian vocabulary for mental
             illnesses that forms the precursor to today’s Diagnostic
             and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Developed by the
             German psychiatrist Emil Kraepelin in the 1890s, this
             psychiatric taxonomy grew from the claim that invisible
             mental illnesses were analogous to physical phenomena in the
             natural world. Reilly explores how figures such as Georg
             Büchner, Ernst Toller, Daniel Paul Schreber, Nikolai
             Evreinov, Vsevolod Ivanov, and Santiago Ramón y Cajal
             understood the legal and political consequences of
             representing mental life in physical terms. Working across
             literary studies, the history of science, psychoanalytic
             criticism, critical theory, and political philosophy,
             Psychic Empire is an original account of modernism that
             shows the link between nineteenth-century scientific
             research on the mental health of national populations and
             twenty-first-century globalized, neuroscientific accounts of
             psychopathology and sanity.},
