Further readings - Erik Davis's TECHGNOSIS

Many of the ideas raised by David Blair in WAX are taken up in different ways in Erik Davis's book TECHGNOSIS. Davis also proposes a new and ancient theory of networks, which may relate to Carrie's thoughts about Greenaway's networked TULSE LUPER narrative ...

His research into McLuhan in this text is particularly good.

There are a number of excerpts from this book available at http://techgnosis.com/techgnosis/tgexcerpts.html

Tulse Luper Suitcases

So I was going to start doing the readings for this week but decided I really needed to become familiar with Greenway's project before reading the academic responses so I decided to google it and...

HOLY CRAP!!! this project is pretty exhaustive.

this is a cutesy online, I'm not sure what to call it, overview perhaps?

here is a media rich version--i found this one a little too chaotic for me to get a handle on

and this is a little more about tulse luperhimself.

I just can't believe I have never come across this work before!!

Hopefully this will help the readings make a little sense to me.
