From: ReDionysus-AT-aol.com Date: Fri, 12 Aug 94 01:57:03 EDT Subject: Seamus Malone intro Now this list and Nietzshe have calmed down a bit and my life is slightly more together, I'll take the opportunity to introduce myself. I'm one of the three moderators on Marxism, I also moderate Bakhtin and Nietzsche. I'm an artist and theorist, engaged in the relationship between aesthetics and politics, particularly how art can be used as a preliminary space for the development of methods of praxis (or the pole of praxis Marx describes as reality striving toward thought). I'm a recent grad of the Art Institute of Chicago, and will be attending the Whitney Independent Study Program in NYC in the fall. I have focused on Marx's early work and the Grundrisse, as well as critical response ranging from Gramsci to Negri, Lefebvre to Deleuze, Foucault and Althusser, Adorno to Habermas. I've been doing a lot of work on Walter Benjamin lately as well. I am on the editorial board of P-Form performance art magazine, (we're always looking for writers and subscribers so write me if you're interested) I guess that's not much of an intro, but I realize I'm going to finally have some time to particiapate here, so I thought you should all know who I am. I also encourage everyone interested to join the Bakhtin list and contribute as its been slow. It is also not out of vanity that I put my name in the header, anyone who is on the list (who can hear me) who is going to post an intro, I'd suggest putting your name in the header, I for one save them and refer back to them when I don't remember where someone is coming from, or I need some juicy biographical material to flame someone. well what would you expect from a/n (economist) from a back water school like (drunken state) that publishes his work in a right wing mickey mouse rag like (jokey journal). I think everyone else might find it useful to. [][][] Seamus Malone
