yes, nice article. though it seems to be more of a broad overview of the
field than something with a clear point or thesis.

[ btw, he quotes the entire second half of the Detritus manifesto. which
is great but he doesnt credit it. oh, wait, actually, i was reading a
hardcopy.
the web version does link to detritus in the paragraph above. ( brings up
an interesting issue about academic writing on the web. how to translate
it to print without losing information? ) ]

anyway, it's good. thanx for bringing it to our attention, Thom.
