Jan 18, The Ruling Ideas
Pad: The Ruling Class and the Ruling Ideas
Today's session was very interesting. In the first half of the day, we observed and discussed an illustration by Chad McCail. The three panels depict how robots run zombies for wealthy parasites and according to Karl Marx. At first, the visualisation reminded me of 'The Garden of Earthly Delights', a triptych by Hieronymus Bosch. The longer I look, the more things I see in common between the two pieces, from the illustrative approach of each author to the vivid imagery, to the complexity of symbolic meaning.
Later, we read and discussed Chapter 1, p.9-12, Pad: The Ruling Class and the Ruling Ideas by Marx and Engels. We ended the day with another discussion about weddings as rituals, what they share in terms of characteristics, and how all those relate to games.
