    Hi,
    I would have a wish, and namely if you don´t have a possibility (I couldn´t find it anywhere online) to find and share the book by Matthew G. Kirschenbaum – Mechanisms: New Media and the Forensic Imagination. MIT Press, 2008.

    Thanks in/for thousands :)

    - SILVA, Armando (ed.). Urban imaginaries from Latin America. Documenta 11 (Kassel: Documenta i Museum Friedericianum-Veranstaltungs GmbH, i Ostfildern-Ruit: Hatje Cantz Publishers, 2003)
    - A Silva and others Global imaginaries, Fears, Bodies and Doubles en: Cat, Microwave and Tinfoil, editado por Lars Bang Larsen y Lars Mathicen, Copenhagen: The Danish Arts Agency
    Most of this books you can get in amazon.com

    Thanks,
    Henderson.

    Sorry, should have put the request here:

    I’ve been looking for Adrian Mackenzie’s “Transductions: Bodies and machines at speed.” If you could upload it, that would be great.

  17. Andre Costa on February 22, 2010 12:05 am

    I don`t know if it matches the profile of the blog, but could you start posting Les Cahiers du Cinéma? Best cinema magazine in the world, the new edition about Rohmer looks precious.

  18. kyd on February 27, 2010 8:54 am

  26. Pavel on August 7, 2010 1:34 pm

    Hi,

    how about “Hertzian Tales: Electronic Products, Aesthetic Experience, and Critical Design” by Anthony Dunne?

    Thanks for your wonderful work!

  27. Simon on August 22, 2010 10:59 pm

    Hi,

    I think it would be realy great if there was in adjunction to this site a hub for edupunksters to interact and learn based on the reading material you provide us with. To be an autodidactic learner is a loners affair that can get to be taxing on the moral at times. Such a space would allow for a community to emerge which would makes it possible to discuss, share and even apply what is learned in the real world better.

    This is idealy the purpose of the site I’m working on but you are in a much better position to lauch one considering all the people who download books and who suscribe to your mailing list.

    Though reflection in action projects are what can turn education into something totaly else and worthwhile as opposed to the feudal model we still have most everywhere, I think that you and a Drupal site could help make possible this other viable and stimullating alternative that networked communities can make possible.

    Thank you very much for your attention and always surprising work!

  28. monoskop on September 5, 2010 8:26 pm

    hi Simon,

    thank you for the good point.

    Put shortly, Monoskop/log was not meant to be a discoursive platform. It is simply an offshoot of our research into media arts and culture, and in itself is a small attempt to give a slight push to the humanities academia to find its way out from the 20th century narratives. The literature and references are on the table.

    Besides that there is a handful of autonomous (onoffline) initiatives that provide the social field and a bottom-bottom infrastructure for organic peer to peer learning (aaaaarg.org & The Public School, mailing lists, P2P Foundation, University of Openness, and many more).

    In other words, this site aims at making the literature for media studies and overlapping and bordering fields more visible, and to inspire other initiatives to make their own use of it.

    If you are willing to build up a discussion platform, i’ll be happy to give a hand.

    Dusan

    PS. I have to say, I’m very much surprised the site still exists. Up to this day we only got three complaints (one from the publisher, one from the author, and one from the magazine editor), while there is around a thousand PDFs linked. I believe it says a lot about the collective need for this kind of resource and about how media culture shapes our society, what makes me occassionaly happy.
