Other questions that will be addressed during the event include:

·      How come so much writing in England is realist, humanist and anti-intellectual?
·      Is all great literature pirated?
·      Why are Oxbridge-educated journalists obsessed with protecting ‘ordinary’ people from difficult language?
·      What do we need most – another theory of revolution or a revolution of theory?
·      Is everyone writing their memoirs today or does it just seem like it?
·      And why is Gary so mean to Tom McCarthy?

Updated on 8 November, 2024. Media Gifts is 'raw in its focus on content', having been constructed according to some of the principles of Brutalist Web Design set out by David Bryant Copeland. Except where otherwise indicated, content on Media Gifts can be distributed, reproduced, transmitted, translated, modified, remixed, built upon, used and 'pirated' in any medium, even without indication of origin. (This does not affect any rights others may have in it or in how it is used.) Given the lack of a licence that is consistent with the (inhumanist) approach to copyright that is articulated and enacted on Media Gifts - although the cc4r licence (https://gitlab.constantvzw.org/unbound/cc4r) comes closer than most - this statement is provided to acknowledge yet deny the copyrighting that is performed by default by a public domain CC-O licence or when all rights are otherwise waived.
