"What a rewarding read! This unique blending of philosophy, poetry and personal experience, combined with an impressive scholarship, has enlightened me beyond my expectations. I especially liked the constructive attitude which turns the ugly past into something which contains future - a dialectics of hope. Like many educated people I had a certain knowledge of the issues at hand but this work has convinced me that we need to know so much more about it. We must finally recognize how strongly this past still influences the present worldview and our actions. "'Talking Cheddo' established forcefully the key role of language and the power of (forgotten) words ..." Prof.Dr.W.Schirmacher Program Director, Media & Communications Division European Graduate School EGS Manga Clem Marshall conducts ongoing research into the intersection of language, culture and race. From inside the circle of his ancestral Cheddo (Freethinking) tradition in the Senegambian region of West Africa, he lectures on Afrikan art, language, culture and race. He was named 'Teacher of the Year' for his work in Sociology at York University, Toronto; taught Community Arts at Ryerson University; pioneered the series Learning to Love Africa Through her Art for the Art Gallery of Ontario and was a lecturer in the prize-winning Ontario Science Centre program, 'A Question of Truth'.

The second and revised edition of a groundbreaking philosophical treatise from a leading authority on the theory and practice of electronic culture in the media age. Continuing the work of post(e)-pedagogy of Applied Grammatology, Ulmer's Teletheory is the second book of his trilogy on the modes of inquiry which concludes with Heuretics. Teletheory addresses the paradigm shift from literacy to electracy, using philosophy of science as well as Roland Barthes' design of an image rhetoric. The invention of a new historiography as experience of subjectivation culminates in a poetics extracted from philosophy of science, critical theory, and videography, which is tested with a sample of the genre: "Derrida at the Little Bighorn." The functionality of collage-montage as logic is probed, resulting in a position of singularity.
