The narrative examines the difficult and necessary relationship between the writer, the written word, and the production of social change. In focusing attention specifically on the power of text to influence systems of oppression on a large cultural scale, MAO II provides examples of the ways... ![]()
Dok Hall i osobe poput njega surfaju kroz računalno stvorene svjetove, stvarajući svoje favorite i bilježeći svoja zapažanja, oni surfaju kroz dvodimenzionalne HTML dokumente, iako će, slijedeći pravilo Teda Nelsona o učestalim mijenama, svakih šest tjedana, oni uskoro vrludati kroz... ![]()
