He is here at the Menil and I'm doing things with him on Friday and Saturday. We met and hit it off in about five minutes.
It's quite remarkable how similar his work is to our work in OOO and how keen on OOO he is now he knows about it. In fact, we might as well have been the same person!
It's also very interesting how he has been criticized, which is remarkably similar to OOO. The stories he was telling about [unnamed journal x] were almost identical to my recent encounters with [unnamed journal y and z], insofar as a certain form of cultural Marxism sees what we do as a threat: we are naive consumerist commodity fetishist narcissists, bla bla bla. Only he's been having it since the early 80s!
