I'm a PhD student in the English department at Duke University. I recently completed a Masters in Comparative Media Studies at MIT, where I published my thesis on early modern text-generating poems as a web-based combinatory reading/writing program. I spend a lot of time thinking about what it has meant historically to read and write across various media platforms. I spend an equal amount of time playing ukulele, piano and flute; pontificating anarchist politics; riding my bike; tearing up grass; collecting dictionaries; watching videos of Richard Dawkins debate atheism; and renovating my home.

Mountweazel, Lillian Virginia. n. (1942-1973)

American photographer, b. Bangs, Ohio.

Turning from fountain design to photography in 1963, Mountweazel produced her celebrated portraits of the South Sierra Miwok in 1964. She was awarded government grants to make a series of photo-essays of unusual subject matter, including New York City buses, the cemeteries of Paris and rural American mailboxes. The last group was exhibited extensively abroad and published as Flags Up! (1972).

Mountweazel died at 31 in an explosion while on assignment for Combustibles magazine.

delicious.
