Rorty is Sporty, But Blonsky is the Bombsky
I am reminded of a cat named Rorty by Sugarbaker. If the Matrix is bringing back philosophy, and short films, there could be a miniature revolution going on. Since I was a philosophy minor at a state college, I see this as simply cool.
With some luck then, we might see the rise in popularity of one of the most single insightful books I've ever read: American Mythologies. It's a long shot.
I'm not particularly keen to offer a great amount of detail about it at the moment, but it can be said that I spent some significant portion of my life searching for answers to the questionableness of American life. Blonsky's book gave me a context like a big red pill. When I swallowed it, I still wrote in pomo-speak:
Marshall Blonsky, in American Mythologies, examines the symbolic discourse between the performers and the performed upon as if to examine the state of the cieling in the house whose walls have already collapsed. Yet it remains a valid work because while we all stand in the cold ruins, the ceiling remains frozen in mid-air suspended like our disbelief, while from its reflections we measure our steps. As intellectual excavator and personal ruminator par excellence, Blonsky will become the McLuhan of the 90s.
There's a lot more where that came from. You can see how crazy I was just after I took the pill.
