When I was in grad school

January 5, 2001 by Michael Boyle

I read a lot of Jean Baudrillard, and he remains one of the few theorists I still read from time to time – my tolerance for academic work has gone way down. Feed has published a review of The Vital Illusion, the latest of his works translated into English. I read a bit of it in French last year, but it’ll be fun to read it in English as well – there are some pretty good translations of Baudrillard out there.

content management system for this is aaronland that includes this neat “category” thing. It’s a cool way to look back over old material – the categories are themselves meaningful content, in addition to the posts they represent. It’s not new, but I’ve been browsing it during the past couple of days and it’s very cool.

of Communication Arts today at the office – it’s the advertising annual this month. Flipping through – the best one I noticed was a billboard for the California Avocado Commission that said:

Trees supply oxygen.
Really good trees supply oxygen and avocados.

[Pretty nice website too]
