McKenzie directs the DesignLab, a new media consultancy at UW-Madison whose mission is to democratize digitality, just as public education helped democratize literacy in the 19th century (for better and for worse). To this end, DesignLab seeks to democratize design beyond the professional designers of commodities and to democratize post-ideational thought beyond experimental theorists such as Derrida and Deleuze. We serve students from potentially any discipline, and our means are smart media, emerging scholarly genres such as TED talks, podcasts, theory comix, and persuasive games, genres which supplement books, articles, and conference papers. Smart media remix concept and affect, eidos and imagos, logos and mythos: they target new venues and new audiences and point beyond the monomedial disciplinary expertise that still dominates humanist—and posthumanist— discourse and practice. One instantiation is “The Revelations of Dr. Kx4l3ndj3r,” a lecture performance whose disastronautic refrains slip past the all-too-human truth modes of correspondence and adequation (which inform debates over realism vs. constructivism) in order to explore recursion at a cosmographic scale
