Just realised what you said here, and find it very interesting. I was wondering if
you'd care to elaborate on the point above where you say Baudrillard went spatial.

This is by no means a criticism of what you say, nor is it the prelude to an argument
to the contrary of what you say. I am genuinely interested in how you think JB went
spatial - it kind of ties in with my PhD, and could prove most insightful.
