  • Wear Your Work or No One Else Will


    HammermarksAuthority Authority: 126
    Even my spiky Clipped necklace is wearable! One of my biggest pet peeves is when I go out to an event, and jewelers don’t wear their work!  It’s the most grass roots way of promoting yourself, yet so many don’t do it.  I once went to an annual meeting of a goldsmiths’ guild where hardly anyone was wearing ...

  • How existentialism made women the second sex


    Oz ConservativeAuthority Authority: 414
    Existentialism is one of the more interesting expressions of modernist philosophy. The logic of existentialism seems to go something like this.

  • Theory 3: Existentialist Illness of Cyberneticism, or Cybermental Illness


    SocybertyAuthority Authority: 567
    The phenomenon of cyber-mental illness is a growing problem. Indeed, it would be of great benefit to expand the sociological field of cyberneticism. If we follow the positivist constructionism rule, it can be tested that, as a form of mental illness, may be applied to computer users and their psychoanalytic, ...

  • Theory I: Positivist Constructionism


    SocybertyAuthority Authority: 567
    I admit that the insufficient and short memoir is a shortfall of words with little or no emotional attachments. Nevertheless, the dictated body does offer a hint of constructionist events that defaults on the positivist agenda of absolutism, objectivism, and determinism. In other words, events are done out of relative ...

    Christopher Schwartz's WeblogAuthority Authority: 117
    It’s been a year of loss, upheaval, and disappointment, but also one of journey, discovery, and accomplishment — more than usual, that is.  Many of the changes were seismic: I left one religion for another, one continent for another, sacrificing the security of home to finally become, after so many years of ...

    Feminist ReviewAuthority Authority: 541
    Constellation Considering Evangelista is side project of musician Carla Bozulich—a rather unstable project at that—it is hard to imagine that a work of quality would be produced by a band that seems to be a metaphorical revolving door. However, despite the constant entering and exiting of band members, ...

    Thought for FoodAuthority Authority: 109
    Cynthia Williams was a reluctant medium, which was not hard to imagine when you realize that the catalyst for what was eventually to become her life’s work was the unusual attention she received from, of all things, a dolphin.

It’s from Carlin Barton’s  Roman Honor: The Fire in the Bones (pg. 32, UC Press 2001): As the art historian Bettina Bergmann points out, the Romans had a taste for moments of high tension, frozen instants of “explosive emotions,” “excruciating suspended ...
