Not A Review: A Primer


It is my intention not to review books, movies, television shows, or music on this blog. Instead, I intend to invite discussion of these works and discover previously unexplored nuances of them. That is the best case scenario. At the very least, I intend to abate the opinion smog of the Internet.



Reviews are a species of writing which have procreated to the point of overpopulation on the Internet. Every few moments,  a book, movie, television show, or piece of music is hastily scrutinized and summarized and then left breathless and bloated on the digital landscape. I'd like to practice some 2.0 ecology and manage the population of the species by not allowing unchecked propagation on my little piece of the electronic frontier



In the interest of efficiency, I will include a link to a review of the work in each "Not A Review" should an overzealous search engine burn a path to my posts.
