## Re: Marshall McLuhan, "actual destroyer of our civilization"

Hi Jim,
An interesting essay:
From Internet to Gutenberg
http://www.hf.ntnu.no/anv/Finnbo/tekster/Eco/Internet.htm / in English,
A lecture presented by Umberto Eco at The Italian Academy for Advanced
Studies in America (November 12, 1996)
http://www.inf.ufsc.br/~jbosco/InternetPort.html (in Portuguese)
.............
"Let me conclude with a praise of the finite and limited world that books
provide us. Suppose you are reading Tolstoj's War and Peace: you are
desperately wishing that Natasha will not accept the courtship of that
miserable scoundrel who is Anatolij; you desperately wish that that
marvellous person who is prince Andrej will not die, and that he and Natasha
could live together happy forever. If you had War and Peace in a
hypertextual and interactive CD-rom you could rewrite
your own story, according to your desires, you could invent innumerable War
and Peaces, where Pierre Besuchov
succeeds in killing Napoleon or, according to your penchants, Napoleon
definitely defeats General Kutusov.
Alas, with a book you cannot. You are obliged to accept the laws of Fate,
and to realise that you cannot change Destiny. A hypertextual and
interactive novel allows us to practice freedom and creativity, and I hope
that such a kind of inventive activity will be practised in the schools of
the future. But the written War and Peace does not confront us with the
unlimited possibilities of Freedom, but with the severe law of Necessity. In
order to be free persons we also need to learn this lesson about Life and
Death, and only books can still provide us with such a wisdom. "
Bye,
Regina

## "Proposal for a Great Earth Mother: Bio Art and Digital Literature" - A PLOG !!!!!?

A PLOG ????!!! - http://www.creative-catalyst.com/plog.html
13 March
"Regina Celia Pinto has made the first contribution to "e-Femoral: the
severed head and other stories.
(http://www.creative-catalyst.com/e-femoral/index.html)" Her story is an
extract from her current work in progress, an electronic artist's book
entitled "Proposal for a Great Earth Mother: Bio Art and Digital Literature"
(translated from Portuguese by Sabrina Gledhill). Read it here
(http://www.creative-catalyst.com/e-femoral/regina.html)."
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Proposal for a Great Earth Mother:
Bio Art and Digital Literature
Regina Celia Pinto
(English Version: Sabrina Gledhill)
The renowned anthropologist Sir R.B. was the first to note the strange
symbols on Kiwi multimedia artist HVJ's femur stem. As a result, this item
was immediately taken to the CALS (Center for Anthropological and Linguistic
Studies) in the main city on the Island of Aotearoa. The world's foremost
anthropologists and experts in linguistics and codes flocked to that
important research center to witness an unheard-of event in the world of
Science.
For months on end, these specialists devoted themselves to the study of that
femur stem without making any discoveries. Meanwhile, multimedia artist HVJ
got used to walking with her new tantalum1 hip implant, and was amazed at
the sudden fame gained by that former part of her bone structure. Every day,
the wildest claims appeared in the newspapers, but the scientists were
stymied. The code (?) was still unbroken.

## "The new beat" in your Sunday

Bossa nova is a style of Brazilian music invented in the late 1950s by a
group of middle-class students and musicians living in the Copacabana and
Ipanema beachside districts of Rio de Janeiro. The name could be translated
as "the new beat" or "the new way." In Brazil, it became well known through
the record "Chega de Saudade," performed by Joao Gilberto and composed by
Antonio Carlos Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes. The record was released in
1958." (wikipedia > more at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bossa_nova)
Below a WONDERFUL website in English, when you can listen to "bossa nova"
songs and watch some videos from this musical movement.
http://www.bossanova.fm/
I do recommend this site to all but specially to those who loves music.
Bye,
Regina
