...and the ingredients of identity...


as it seems to be the fashion to make lists of stuff by which you identify yourself by proxy, here's mine. well maybe it's not so mad, can you imagine recreating culture of this level entirely on your own? maybe this is honest.. it's the cut and paste paradigm i'm afraid, and as ms haraway as said, we are all cyborgs

the links aren't gratuitous, they are pretty much all to some interesting stuff, enjoy.
