"A symbol does not define or explain; it points beyond itself to a meaning that is darkly divined yet still beyond our grasp, and cannot be adequately expressed in the familiar words of our language."

History does not merely touch on language, but takes place in it.
—Theodor Adorno
“Between the experience of living a normal life at this moment on the planet and the public narratives being offered to give a sense to that life, the empty space, the gap, is enormous. The desolation lies there, not in the facts.”
—A Man with Tousled Hair, John Berger.
“In such gaps people get lost, and in such gaps people go mad.”
“What is near provokes a vertigo.”
“the terrible space existing between spoken words and what they are meant to mean”
"Convulsion of the diaphragm (laughter) usually provides better opportunities for thought than convulsion of the soul."

ESA novembrikuu raamat: Sotsiaal- ja kultuuriteooriad
Novembrikuu raaamtuks on ESA nimetanud Anthony Elliotti toimetatud "Routledge Handbook of Social and Cultural Theory". Raamatu eesmärk ongi tuua kokku sotsiaal- ja kultuuriteooriad, mida seni ehk liialt vähe on koos käsitletud. Nii võttab raamatu 414 lehekülge kokku kirjastus ise:
This Handbook, edited by Anthony Elliott,develops a powerful argument for bringing together social and cultural theory more systematically than ever before. Key social and cultural theories, ranging from classical approaches to postmodern, psychoanalytic and post-feminist approaches, are drawn together and critically appraised. There are substantive chapters looking at – among others – structuralism and post-structuralism, critical theory, network analysis, feminist cultural thought, cultural theory and cultural sociology. Throughout the Handbook there is a strong emphasis on interdisciplinarity, with chapters drawing from research in sociology, cultural studies, psychology, politics, anthropology, women’s studies, literature and history.
Nimetatud käsiraamat on küll veel trükkimises, ent saadaval eeltellimiseks. Seni on eestlastel võimalik nautida Elliotti varasemalt toimetatud kogumikke kaasaegsetest sotsioloogilistest teooriatest nagu "Contemporary Social Theory: An Introduction", "The Blackwell Reader in Contemporary Social Theory", "Profiles of Contemporary Social Theory" ja "Critical Visions: New Directions in Social Theory", mis on kõik raamatukogude vahendusel vabalt saadaval.

“Võimu mõiste muundub ajas vastavalt sellele, kuidas muundub tehnoloogiline, majanduslik, sotsiaalne ja ideoloogiline reaalsus. Võimu mõtestamine teoreetilisel tasemel on viimase saja aasta jooksul teinud läbi ulatusliku deformatsiooni.”

Kes tahab vähe põhjalikumalt teada mis loom on Chroma subsampling, see lugegu.
Põhirõhk on artiklil hoopis sellel et DV kompressiooniga video ei jõua üle FireWire FCP-sse oma täiel potentsiaalil, kuna Apple kasutab kehvakesi algoritme 4:1:1 video "pehmendamiseks". Kes tahab oma miniDV kassetile salvetatu võimalikult hästi sealt kätte saada, kasutagu (kui võimalik) maha mängmimist ja digiteerimist kompresseerimata kujul üle SDI.
