emanuel swedenborg post retiring from being director of swedish mines and before he experienced the visions that led to his reinterpretation of christianity was fascinated by the idea that different functions of the body were controlled by different areas of the cerebral cortex. 

percy bysshe shelley and mary shelley were fascinated by `galvanism`. 
they inadvertently electrocuted the family cat whilst trying to utilize

an editor should be respected even feared maybe even disliked by her
contributors. her job is to dock their prolixities unify their styles and
force them to conform to a consistent and clearly defined vision of the
work in hand. it is no job for a democrat.


one thinker champions "the construction of autonomous tools" 

one thinker in just four lines champions the printing press to avoid
upsetting the editor and the thermos bottle for no reason. another
nominates television but remarks of this pervasive socially transforming
invention merely that it provides information influences patterns of
behaviour such as sex and crime and has reduced the popularity of live
performances.

another leading thinker in the course of a long and rambling rant against
the whole idea of invention states that he "doesn't think he could hack
... assholes and complacent dopes living hundreds of years". 



applicable to nettime's constant regurgitation of dubious observations by
complacent dopes.
