Tupac enters academia after death.
Some lady is teaching a class at my old school using Tupac as a main reference. It’s a CHID class, which has always offered cool courses.
I think that if a rapper is going to be studied in universities, Tupac is only a good example because he’s accessible and hugely popular, even [...]
Who made it into Rolling Stone? That’s right, my almost famous crush, on the way to being more famous.
A friend (hi Owen!) just sent me a link to Maya Hayuk’s page. Wow. I like her paintings, but I really like her photos. Lots of focus contrast and accessible images.
And I just found this interview with Slug. Personal hi-lites: he gives props to Oddjobs, he breaks down his influence and what he hopes [...]

I was reading a couple articles here and here (Wired). They aren’t really related, but I came to the same question with each of them:
We persue and seek knowledge, but at what cost?
