Readings for our May 3 meeting

Hi all - Great to see you this weekend. I'm really enjoying these discussions!

In addition to the two readings in Google Docs that I emailed you about (by Grant McCracken and John Irving), here are two online readings for our next meeting:

Karl Marx on commodity fetishism

John Urry on "Automobility, Car Culture, and Weightless Travel"

The Urry piece ranges all over the place and is a bit theoretically dense in places - you may want to read it in chunks, instead of all at once!
