Re: Wrestling with Angels
This should be read - Edward compares Alan Sondheim to
Bach -well, Bach or whatever, he's by a mile the
nearest we have yet to that sort of giant & this
review certainly articulates well some of the delights
and rewards of this extraordinary body of work.
It does seem a tad meta to comment on the commentary,
but Edward's review ( and his critical writing in
general) does generously repay attention.
Even where one might take issue with details it's a
model of careful attention and reflection, critical
but generous in spirit and presented in crystal clear
language.
If only more new media criticism were this mindful of
the object of attention and forgetful of itself!

Re: Call for submissions: 1st Bachelors Prize for Net-Literature
<is calling
for entries in a
productive net-literature competition. In accordance
with the nature of
the venture, participation is restricted to men.>
this is appalling - semi literate drivel used to
'justify' nasty and reactionary practice.
What next - whites only competitions?
