Acknowledgments Writing is an act of gratitude. My thanks go to Barry Alford, Anne Alton, Gary Astrachan, Bill Brevda, Mary Ann Crawford, William Doty, Hedwig Fraunhofer, Peter Haddad, Heidi Holder, Robert Hrdina, Joseph Lease, John Moore, Jerry Neeb-Crippen, Daniel Patterson , Robert Paul, Steve Scholl, David Smith, Christina Tassev, and Aparna Zambare. A special note of gratitude to Ron Primeau for initiating me into the lore of the goat, to Stacy Thompson for keeping me meandering toward the flag, and to Mark Freed for holding the nonmodern door to the Academetron open. The Dean’s Office of the College of Humanities, Social, and Behavioral Sciences at Central Michigan University, as well as the Faculty Research and Creative Endeavors Committee and the Office of International Education, provided essential support for my work. Parts of TechnoLogics first appeared in scholarly journals. My thanks to Arthur and Marilouise Kroker, editors of CTheory, to Mark Bracher, editor at the Journal of the Psychoanalysis of Culture and Society, and to Geraldine Shipton at Psychoanalytic Studies for their permission to incorporate the revised essays into the book. It has been a pleasure to work with all those involved at the SUNY Press. The astute comments of the anonymous readers greatly improved the book. Without the invaluable assistance of Wyatt Benner, Diane Ganeles, and Susan Petrie, as well as the expert guidance of Joseph Natoli, the series editor, and James Peltz, editor-in-chief at the Press, there would be no book. My gratitude to them all. Hats off, as well, to the kinfolk on this and the other side of the line: Prakash Chand, Chris, Anil, Marilyn, Stephanie, Rachel, Nathan, June, Gray, Tom, Laurie, Will, and Hunter. As for Kanta, who travels between worlds, well, she knows what she does. ix ...
