\nJet Blue’s mechanical glitch and
\nemergency landing
\nin L.A.<\/a> close to twenty-four hours ago has re-re-re-played out in both the
\nfootage and the passenger accounts.  The flight returned safely despite the
\nsideways-jammed and intractable landing gear; the culmination was a straight,
\nfrictional grind to a halt. Thereafter, the angle of many of the news reports
\nhas been the visibility of the event as it unfolded on the television monitors
\ninside the plane.  One of Jet Blue’s most prized features is a one-per-seat
\ntelevision monitor that can tune to a variety of programs, including live
\nnational news broadcasts.  Stunning as it must have been, what resulted was
\ndisfiguration of the flash-of-celebrity fan on the Jumbo-tron: "Look, we’re on
\nTV."<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\nJust a few minutes ago, when, after reading for much of the day, I was turning
\nthrough the final few pages of Imagologies<\/i>, the section called "Body
\nSnatching" synched with yesterday’s Jet Blue event.  I didn’t watch much
\nof the coverage–just one brief interview with a passenger shortly after the
\nlanding who described the televisual experience as post<\/i>-postmodern (a
\nphrase that, would you believe?<\/i>, came up again today in Eubanks’s essay
\nin Bazerman and Prior’s collection on discourse analysis…two post-post<\/i>
\nrefs so close together).  The few bits
\nand pieces I saw today (online or on the tube) echoed the passenger’s sense of
\nthe hyperreal.  <\/p>\n

\nIn "Body Snatching," Taylor and Saarinen pose the question, "is telepresence
\nabsence or presence?"  I don’t have an answer, but I’d spend both of my
\nnothing-to-fear-in-being-wrong<\/i> guesses on a two-part response: neither\/both.  And maybe this paradox
\nexplains what was perceived to be so completely eventful about the perilous
\nlanding broadcast to the passengers (LIVE) along with everybody else. 
\nThose on board were caught up in the reality-shredding loop: a question asked
\nfrom both in here and out there at once–will they<\/strike>we make it<\/i>? One
\nmore related quotation from the "Body Snatching" chapter:<\/p>\n

\nThe simulacrum is a novum that is neither original nor copy, real nor imaginary,
\nsignified nor signifier.  The operation of the simulacrum transfigures the
\nbody ("Body Snatching" 9).\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nI’ve reached the end of insights on this one for now.  While these ideas
\naren’t especially revelatory or bowl-you-over original, some of Taylor and Saarinen’s
\nvocabulary–terms shared by others who’ve worked for some time on questions
\ninvolving
\nmedia and the visual–clicked for me.  So I’m giving them a try.  Telepresence…etc.  Good stuff
\n(go on, tell me it’s been passe for eight years).  It’s pushed me to
\nconsider related stuff like (satisfying, disconcerting, voyeuristic) notions of
\ntelepresence in weblogs.  If the plan I have for tomorrow
\nholds up, I’ll have more to say about Imagologies<\/i> (but probably
\ndisappointingly little to add to the buzz re Jet Blue and hey, that’s us!<\/i>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
