projectjulie and mostlikely2, I'm lookin' at you -- there's this quote in Donna Haraway's...FemaleMan and OncoMouse, I THINK. Near the intro or first chapter. Goes something along the lines of: "we cannot pretend we live in the world where the cyborg never emerged fully formed from Zeus' brain" or something, but BETTER and without Zeus.
MAN it is one of my all-time favorite quotes -- iffen any of you out there could find me the proper verbiageization, as I have long hence sold my FemaleMan/OncoMouse back to the bookstore in exchange for food and shelter, I would be, well, relly just full of critically theoretical bliss.
The short version, of course, and the one I'm actually going to get tattooed on my hip, is Tony Kushner's, and goes a little something like this: THE WORLD ONLY SPINS FORWARD.
Same thing, really.
