Teaching Vertigo was always a highlight midterm.
I was able to introduce my classes to Nouvelle Vague, La Jetée and 12 Monkeys for intertextuality.
What a feast that was.

Currently on the difference between allusion and Intertextuality in Paris: A Poem as part of an argument I’m trying to make that the increasing uselessness of search engines may have *advantages* for scholars.

Idea for a sequel to my intertextuality thread! Inspired by a spirited discussion-
I’d love to explore how games have meaningfully incorporated techniques and disciplines from other mediums to enrich their games…

Not to disagree - because I don't! - but to give more due to tEoE: speaking of intertextuality (though unreferenced), I came across a piece on Moby Dick (yalereview.org/article/tom-...) & couldn't help but think of tEoE throughout, esp. considering iGhetti description: cathedral-size "white plumes"

Friends, I come bringing horrible news on this otherwise pleasant day. As you know, I am in the midst of writing a novel, and as you know, I am committed to pastiche and intertextuality, and as you know, I am cursed with vision. And so, for the sake of art, I am going to read Dungeon Crawler Carl.

if I may append a post-script, a little epilogue, a wee coda:
Ultimately, the name of the game is *active* intertextuality. More than a passive state, engage in conversation, learn another discipline's underlying principles and apply them elsewhere.

Bear Talks Games: "You Cannot Be an Artist Until You Are Civilized."
It's a line from a stage play with which I've become mildly obsessed, a dramatization of an episode in the life of artist Mark Rothko. Specifically, the time in which Rothko was commissioned to paint a set of murals...

A fun thing about becoming very familiar with Psalm 95 as a daily invitatory is that in reading through Jacob in the Book of Mormon it jumped out at me that the whole book was framed with the direct language of Psalm 95. I see others picked up on this before, but it was new to me. #intertextuality

Wrote about John Green’s new novel — and intertextuality and the perils of fame and the importance of human connection while pursuing the artistic life @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social
Review: John Green takes on Hollywood
His novel, "Hollywood, Ending," charts a new path for John Green, offering a sharper social critique than his Y.A. work.

The thing that made Disco Elysium great isn't simply that it knows Marx and Russian avant gard and so on; those help, but what gives it the soul isn't the intertextuality. That gives it depth, but what makes it *great* is introspection.

Intertextuality helps to create great art, but there's always the question of "who gets to be civilized". Have any of *you* read Jung? Wadsworth? Aeschylus? Even those of you who do read?
Shakespeare was low culture that became part of the modern canon because it survived through popularity.

Galatians begins with a blessing that gives glory to God forever, ending with “Amen,” a common pattern of prayer that is also used at the end of 4 Maccabees. This similarity shows how Paul was connected to Jewish literary and theological traditions. #intertextuality #bible

Be an anachronistic hodgepodge of nonsense and dick jokes and maybe your work will be remembered five hundred years later because you didn't just rewrite an older story but because you contemplated on something deeper.
Low culture becomes high through interiority, not just intertextuality.

it's 2027, posters are now working on so many layers of intertextuality inside of 300 characters that you are often required to read an explainer wiki, recognise a 15 year old dril tweet, and listen to a concept album about stoned wizards to fully parse the joke.
