Media studies folks! Can anyone recommend a short, accessible-to-first-years reading that introduces the historical periods generally referred to as TV I, TV II, and TV III?

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

New work out (written in Chinese)! Together with the amazing game designer and scholar @molleindustria.org , we discussed why all games are political, how certain logic of games infect real-time thinking of politicians, and how to make better politics possible with better games. Hold our grounds!
作為一名遊戲記者,使我記憶深刻的還有特朗普對於「玩牌」(playing cards)這一比喻的極度迷戀,以及澤連斯基對此説辭的努力迴避。倘若現實政治是一把 #遊戲 ,那麽從特朗普的視角出發,想必他是贏定了:美國有著軍艦、資金、武器裝備、軍事基地。如果全世界是一把「大富翁」(Monopoly),那麽烏克蘭不過是一個無關緊要的玩家,若無美國對它所借用的資源睜隻眼閉隻眼,它隨時都能出局。

🃏 倘若我們是這把政治「大富翁」中的澤連斯基,我們就一定會輸嗎?點擊連結,了解為何這場關於政治如何被理解為遊戲的辯論對於我們理解美國政治至關重要:https://buff.ly/o530U9A

An informed electorate is a cornerstone of whatever comes next, something that can’t be attained without significant U.S. media reform, notes Victor Pickard, professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Annenberg School for Communication.

Hey that’s where I grew up.
After the war, Scott moved to Kentucky and took up work as a carpenter. He died in Fayette County at the age of 70 in 1830. That's all I know about him.

The point, of course, is that, along with white, Christian Europeans, Continental units were filled with immigrants, colored people and atheists.

4. More horror authors should read Kier la Janisse, Carol J. Clover, Susan Stryker, etc. Going past thinkpiece depth in your understanding of the genre really does wonders for your work.

I worked on a digitisation project around a decade ago. Earlier this year, I found that host organisation subsequently lost the digital files, but the physical archive (which was also restored in the project) is still there.
Occasionally we remind people that paper is the most stable long-term storage medium* and it's always a surprise.

*Unless you're into carving your own stele, in which case you might have some significant long-term storage SPACE problems.

My first paper is published!🤩 In it, I analyze how 20th century plant morphologist Agnes Arber understood teleology in plants.🪴 Spoiler: I think that she had two different notions of teleology and only liked one of them.
