We can speak of events only in the context of the problem whose conditions they determine. We can speak of events only as singularities deployed in a problematic field, in the vicinity of which the solutions are organized. --G. Deleuze

I have a separate page dedicated to various approaches to the study of "cyberculture." Some of these problematics include:

--The difficult matter of the virtual body, including some comments I made a few years back on the Dibble "Rape in Cyberspace" article
--Digital co-labor: I presentation a gave on collaborative online research that grew out of my work on the Postmodern Spacings project
--Literary machines: an exploration of Joycean hypertextuality
--Complexities of Networks: My Emergent Essays project
--Archiving Modernity: My web project on The 1939 World's Fair Tiime Capsule

The links below present a tangle of sorts--mappings of my own trajectories through various flights of reading and writing.

Deleuze and Guattari

My article "Virtual Topographies: Smooth and Striated Cyberspace," in Cyberspace Textuality, Ed. Marie-Laure Ryan (Bloomington: Indiana UP, 1999)
Smooth/Striated Cyberspace: A compilation of comments on and about the WWW and its relation to D+G's "smooth space."
Pragmatic/Machinic: An Interview with Guattari, conducted by Charles Stivale in 1985.
Deleuze's ABC Primer, also prepared by Charles Stivale
Postscript on the Societies of Control by Deleuze, text-version archived at the Spunk Library.
Deleuze's Tuesday morning lectures from Vincennes St-Denis, courtesy of the Deleuze Web
Detective Deleuze and the Case of the Slippery Sign, by Stephen O'Connell

Baudrillard

Here is a link to my article Baudrillard in Cyberspace, which originally appeared in Style 29 (1995): 314-327. Since 1995, when I first put this article online, this webpage has found itself caught up in a number of linkages to other Baudrillard pages. At the time, my institution was called DeKalb College. It has since changed its name, along with its server address. In the summer of 2004, my College finally stopped mirroring the "dekalb.dc.peachnet.edu" server address. As a result, most links to this article are now dead. Although this article still exists "on" the map of the WWW, a minor change in code has radically altered its ontological status. Don't believe me? Follow my dead links!

For a significant collection of Baudrillard's writing online, try Baudrillard on the Web. UT Arlington's Project Baudrillard provides an interesting blend of critical material as well. Of course, there's Baudrillard's own website at the European Graduate School, including numerous articles, resources, and more links. Mine is dead, of course.
