Notkin passes her Orals — Marx as pretend film-cartridge theorist

timeline_event

texture · 6 Nov YDAU

When: 6 Nov YDAU (the day before the 7 Nov party; "as of yesterday")
What: Notkin clears M.I.T.'s Oral Examinations in Film & Film-Cartridge Theory, taking A.B.D. pre-doctoral status, by delivering a self-admiring "devastating oral critique of post-millennial Marxist Film-Cartridge Theory from the point of view of Marx himself" — Marx staged as a film-cartridge scholar. This is the pure distillate of Notkin's academic register (cf. her Deleuze citation under interrogation, event 14).
