For this week's entry, I opted for a distant reading/thin description of Ulmer's TELEtheory, partly because the writing was quite dense, and at some points I was forced to rely on Internet clips, interviews and lectures and the explanation of other writers to create meaning. I was, however, intrigued by the concept of mystory and found myself skipping to Part 3 of his book to get a glimpse of what that may look like. After reading through the mystory, I am recommitted to working through new and complex concepts presented in the first two parts of the book. One idea that I am particularly interested in learning more about is the shift from hermeneutics to heuretics that Ulmer emphasizes.
