mitchell is a u of chicago hotshot theorist on visual representation/ iconology/images & art as a visual language.

why i ckd it out:

is not on my list, yet felt i needed to know about this stuff. may not read cover to cover.


e-topia
by:william j. mitchell

guess how i found this book...

this guy is a hotshot from mit & this book appears to be about the impact of technology on culture & where it is going.

why i ckd it out:

part of being current/of my time. even if i do not use it directly, any new knowledge will translate somehow to my work & writing.
