I swear, when this beast is finished and handed in, I'm going to take a week and do nothing but sleep, read comics, watch movies and play video games. Trying to condense two years' worth of thinking about All Things Transmedia into one solid document is threatening to make my head explode.

Current THESIS score: 22,944 and counting. I may have to jettison the third part of the beast if this keeps up. I'll know more by the end of the day tomorrow (erm, today) – wish me luck.

In related news, most of our C3 team had lunch today with Christy Dena herself. That was a real treat, although I'm afraid that our group of C3 jackals didn't let her get a word in edgewise. I wish I had more time to talk to her – we're definitely on the same page about a lot of this research, and I now recognize her as a kindred spirit more than ever before based on her iconoclastic attitude towards academia alone. Hats off to her – I look forward to the next time we cross paths!
