Started another semester of @DarkData today. So lucky to have candidates who range from BFA, MA, MPS, MS, MFA, to a PhD candidate. Student representation across 3 colleges at @TheNewSchool including Parsons, New School for Social Research, and Schools of Public Engagement.

As you might imagine, some enrolled in my class after seeing #TheGreatHack but one said it was because it’s one of the classes stickered on the windows at @TheNewSchool University Center! Gotta love that. Photo of me in front of the PSAM5752 Dark Data course title
ProTip: Switching the semester you teach a class can shift representation in a place like @TheNewSchool that fosters cross-disciplinary and cross-school enrollments. Moving from spring to fall increased this diversity by a fluke; it became more open to other programs’ electives.

Update: Bekah Mercer is now suing Alexander Nix for doing her the ‘favour’ of running Campaign Analytica/SCL into bankruptcy/insolvency as to enjoy the moratorium on data protection act violations which the UK ICO described and affected all registered voters (not just 87 million)
Weird “Payback suit” acting as Dynamo Recoveries after Bekah Mercer already achieved absorbing Cambridge Analytica/SCL into Emerdata Limited and Nigel Oakes got defence gigs/assets as SCL Analytics Ltd
Did Bannon ever cooperate with probes into CA/SCL? We know FTC tried to serve him. But no press follow-up on that. Now a jury is forming on his Jan6 obstruction indictment after shady pardons and whatnot. That Leninist-Duginist who came up with the name Cambridge Analytica.

this feeling of profound despair derives from the extreme minority rule engineered by the slave owners who designed this place
the minority worships guns because they are consumed with the prospect of having to kill the majority if it ever manages to exert any meaningful power
i was watching hannah arendt’s last interview this week via @openculture and her remarks on what makes the usa exceptional relate to minority rule so it’s informing my thoughts on question why our exceptionalism leads to a society animated by gun violence
