I wonder if there are english translations anywhere, or if anyone is working on him. My prime interest is in Paul Virilio .. and Flusser sounds great .. A friend of mine alerted my attention to three titles (her translation from German): ~ A Philosophy of Photography, 1983 ~ Into the Universum of Technical Pictures, 1985 ~ Writing. Does 'Writing' Have a Future, 1992 Biographical details on Flusser: 1920 born in Prague 1939 emigration to Sao Paulo 1959 professor of philosphy of science and since 1963 professor of philosophy of communication at the University of Sao Paul and since then he taught at a plenty of Universities all over Europe and the USA 1991 died I apologise if this is the wrong list to submit such a request, perhaps if it is someone could let me know of a more appropriate way procede. Many thanks for any help, take care all .. ian.r.d. p.s., is anyone interested in starting a Virilio list? I am. =======================================================================Ian Robert Douglas, Department of Politics, "Modern demolition is truly wonderful.
