Bullet points on Chapters 7 & 8, because I like bullet points and scattered thoughts.
- Postmodernist example: The entire genre of filk/parody music (Leslie Fish, Al Yankovic, etc.) is a postmodernist construction. Its entire existence is devoted almost entirely to allusions and parodies of a) other songs, b) other parodies of other songs, or c) popular culture topics (the internet, lolcats, the vagaries of Facebook, and much, much more!)
- The total worldwide subcultures propagated and supported by technological advances bring to mind a more tangible view (right word? I am not sure) of the Jungian theories of the collective unconscious.
There were more thoughts, but they will have to wait for later, since I want to get home before Sandy makes the roads impassable.
