When famed literary theorist Jean Baudrillard passed away, I wrote a memorial on Brain Drain, my literary blog. In that post, I demonstrated through his stream of repeated news obituaries, that Baudrillard’s “The Precession of the Simulacra” was playing out in his name. This post was picked up by the International Journal of Baudrillared Studies and included in their special issue, Vol4-3, “Remembering Baudrillard.”

Kim Clune predicts that Baudrillard will remain important to future generations and offers a poignant thought on paradise and Disneyland.
