Given it's midsemester, a few reminders: 1. All readings are posted on the website: https://www.societyand.technology/. 2. You're expected to complete assigned readings before attending class. If you do not, please don't attend. 3. Please obtain a copy of Playground by Richard Powers, which we'll discuss on 11/14, so less than a month from now. (It's definitely readable in that amount of time.) See you all soon! Geoffrey Challen // https://geoffreychallen.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I wasn't able to get the reading printed. I'll ask my staff assistant to do it, but just in case that doesn't work, the PDF is available on the website: https://www.societyand.technology/ Also a gentle reminder that we'll be discussing Playground by Richard Powers in two weeks, on Friday 11/14. I hope you're enjoying the novel! Geoffrey Challen // https://geoffreychallen.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
