Hi all
For any members interested in the work of the French cultural theorist of
technology Paul Virilio, here are a couple of news items concerning recent
and forthcoming publications:
1) My colleague and fellow CSL member, Mark A. Featherstone, has recently
published a Virilio related article in the e-journal _Anthropoetics 6, no. 2
(Fall 2000 / Winter 2001) entitled:
"Speed and Violence: Sacrifice in Virilio, Derrida, and Girard".
The journal can be found at:

Mark's article can accessed at:

His email is: [log in to unmask]
2) [For Dutch readers/speakers]. My latest interview with Virilio in
_CTHEORY on the Kosovo War has also been translated
into Dutch and has recently been published in Antwerp as:
"CASUS KOSOVO: OORLOG IN DE DAMPKRING" John Armitage in gesprek met Paul
Virilio, in: _AS: MediaTijdschrift_, No. 156, October, November, December,
2000,
pages 112-123.
3) I have recently finished editing _Virilio Live. It is currently in
production and will be published by Sage/Theory, Culture & Society next
August. The details (ISBN's etc.) and the contents of the book are already
