Tomorrow! (Friday)
January 16th, 1 - 2:30pm, in the Cortes School portable.
This was postponed last week due to the power outage, but it's ON for tomorrow:
Dr. Michael De Danann Datura will be discussing the spectacular (in the Guy Debord sense of the word) nature of ideology in late 20th and early 21st century culture. This will include an exposé of the layered and concealed aspects of commodities via Kinder Surprise eggs; a critique of Hollywood’s authoritarian master fantasies as embodied in Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy, and a brief foray into what it might mean to embrace desire without stuff.
