Stay Awhile

Sometimes, I wish my mind to be a literal recording device. Full featured — rewind pause play. I say this because a lingering memory of paradoxically titling this posting Tomorrow’s Residue lurks in the background of present awareness. I'd gone as far as mentally rough sketching some content for my blog. But today, I simmer in a crockpot of nada. No instant replay option. Not even a brief note-to-self.*

* I thought it a bit invasive, at 1:00AM, to wriggle my sleeping companion out of a nooked embrace, turn on a light, grab a notebook and scribble.

While my former inspiration happily vacations in Aetherland, I am left with little to say.

Instead, I bring you a photogeny of the concept of mediated IDentity.**

** In this case the ID is not to be confused with Freud’s notion of that which is instinctive and anterior-to-ego-calcification. ID merely emphasizes the spectrum of personal definition that can be specifically tagged as something formulated by mass media or pervasive cultural paradigm.
