I was honored to be invited to share a chapter from my forthcoming book, Ether/Ore: Archaeologies of Cities and Media, at the University of Amsterdam in May. This particular chapter, âOf Mud, Media, and the Metropolis: Aggregating Histories of Writing and Urbanizationâ will also appear this fall in a special âGeology of Mediaâ special issue of Cultural Politics, edited by Jussi Parikka. You can find my slides here.
