Constructive criticism of Rhizome?

Hi All,

I've been checking the discussion board lately trying to find a good opportunity to discuss my new book and recent ideas, kind of like the good old days. It's been a little troubling to notice that there is really no discussion to speak of here anymore. There used to be a very great deal of it, so I wonder what this means or if it is even a negative. Discussion can't fix everything, but is isn't pure evil either.

Therefore I will be posting on this and related topics until the end of January. Please feel free to discuss or disagree at will. If anyone has major, national-security-type concerns please feel free to contact me via regular e-mail.

Roughly speaking, I'll be posting about the decline of discussion on Rhizome and similar developments elsewhere, and how my recent book Le Cafe and new proposed art-historical period, Networkism, may relate to this issue and offer context and possible solutions.
