Here is a useful year-in-review reading list from Stuart Elden over at Progressive Geographies…

As for me, I spent much of 2013 digging through historical monographs on information, data, and other such subjects.  That and I finally read Middlemarch (and Silas Marner, and Mill on the Floss)!

Infopolitics Talk

with 4 comments

UPDATE: a video of the talk is now available over at Synthetic Zero (thanks, Dirk!).

Below is a flyer for a talk this afternoon at OSU… I gave a version of this earlier in the quarter at Penn State, and another version at Utah back at the very start of the quarter… Many thanks to Stephanie Jenkins (of OSU, and before that Penn State for the Ph.D.) for the invite… Looking forward to the class visit, too, to talk about Foucault.
