copenhagen-bridge.jpg We went to Copenhagen and walked north for hours until a boat marked like a bus met us as though on purpose and took us south then north again whereupon we walked south once more past palaces, galleries, design, office workers hurrying home, burnt almonds and beer, neon lights, trains, hotels and sex shops till we paused for dinner. This morning, propelled by the energy of a goodbye kiss and an excellent week, I sat crosslegged at the airport and read and wrote. Yes.

    That’s kind of cool, getting writing feedback like that – I wonder what would happen to it if it were expanded? I think I’d rather compress it more, if I could, make it like a tiny thing that represented a whole day, you know? Not now though.

Don’t do a systematic review if you’re in the humanities

This paper is a great example of why you probably shouldn’t use a systematic literature review for a theoretical and conceptual research question like “How does artificial intelligence affect the perception of authenticity and aura in art?” However, if you’re looking for an annotated list of 48 recent articles about […]
