Orientaciones transpacíficas: la modernidad mexicana y el espectro de Asia (Chapel Hill: The University of North Carolina Press, 2019) rastrea una orientación intelectual hacia el este y el sur de Asia en la tradición intelectual y artística mexicana de los siglos XX y XXI. El libro abarca un arco temporal amplio, desde el Porfiriato tardío, pasando por los imaginarios culturales del nacionalismo posrevolucionario, hasta la Guerra Fría y la expansión del neoliberalismo en los albores de este nuevo siglo. Torres-Rodríguez demuestra que, aunque después de la independencia mexicana se corta el importante vínculo comercial y las redes imperiales que mantuvieron materialmente unidos al virreinato de la Nueva España con el continente asiático durante el periodo colonial, el este y el sur de Asia continúan constituyendo un punto de referencia crucial a través del cual la tradición intelectual mexicana afirma su centralidad global y ancla sus discursos de singularidad cultural y/o excepción política. Más allá de comprender el orientalismo mexicano como una imitación ornamental o accidental de los archivos orientalistas europeos, Torres-Rodríguez lo reconceptualiza como una orientación espacial, corporal y geográfica enraizada en la propia historia (post)colonial mexicana y en una tradición transpacífica de larga duración. Este estudio marca el giro transpacífico en las crónicas de viaje del diario de José Juan Tablada, en las fotografías paisajísticas de Manuel Álvarez Bravo, en los ensayos culturales y en las campañas de alfabetización de José Vasconcelos, en los ensayos marxistas sobre el modo de producción asiático de Roger Bartra, en la novela negra de Rafael Bernal, en la ópera coral juarense de Marcela Rodríguez y Mario Bellatin y en las instalaciones tijuanenses de Shinpei Takeda. Orientaciones transpacíficas revisa el énfasis tradicional en la relación trasatlántica con Europa y demuestra que es una imaginación transpacífica y verdaderamente planetaria –en vez de una mera dialéctica entre ex colonia y metrópolis– la que define la conceptualización sobre la modernidad cultural y literaria mexicana. Orientaciones transpacíficas explora los puntos de intersección entre el orientalismo mexicano y las ideologías centrales del latinoamericanismo para develar la influencia espectral de Asia en la formación de definiciones culturales y continentales que son fundamentales para el campo de los estudios latinoamericanos. Presenta Rodrigo del Río, a researcher and writer with experience in Latin American literature.

True North Country Comics Podcast Presents In Conversation with J. Torres
So as we continue to huddle down in our hovels, reading, gaming, binging, and possible snuggling other humans and fur babies. I figured I’d reach out to some o0f my fellow comic creators and other creatives to see what exactly they’re doing in these times of uncertainty. Specifically I wanted to speak with J Torres. He’s done loads of work with Oni, DC, and even Kids Can Press. One of the big reasons I wanted to talk with J is that he does a lot of YA stuff, and wanted to focus on content you can watch with your kids. That’s a big deal it’s one thing being stuck indoors on your own, but doing it when there’s wee ones involved is extra taxing cause you need to keep them entertained as well as yourself. So EVERYTHING J brings up today is kid friendly…within reason. Just listen, you’ll get the idea. Contact: Twitter @Fearless_Fred Facebook @fearlessfredontheradi Guest: J Torres: @jtorrescomics

"I wasn't really a big fan of government when I was working as a freelancer, I was very skeptical, but when I stepped in I saw the incredible amount of work…and it was insane, and it was overwhelming…these people are doing so much work and sacrificing everything."

Para la colectividad política opositora, Partido Popular Democrático, en voz de su presidente Aníbal José Torres, Rosselló no debería dimitir solo por los chats.

This weekend several comic book podcasters got together to do a non-stop 24 hour comics podcast. They included DC artist Mike Norton and Chris Crank of Devil's Due (The Crankcast) Marvel artist Skottie Young, Chris Neesman Brian Salazar & Tom Katers (Around Comics) Stevie D and Eric (The Comic Book Queers) and John Siuntres (Word Balloon).Along with the round table discussions, there were informal interviews with other comic pros like J Torres, Tim Seeley, Chris Moreno Jeremy Haun Chris Burnham, Sean McKeever and Brian Michael Bendis. Most of the pros just talked casually about work in general, but Bendis dropped a few comic news items regarding his books. On this special edition of Word Balloon, we present the Bendis interview, moderated by John Siuntres and the Around Comics hosts. Some highlights from the interview...On Ultimate Origin being re-scheduled...Bendis and artist Butch Guice have three issues completed, but some tie-in stories written by Jeph Loeb won't be ready till next year. Plus they didn't want the Ultimate Universe storyline to conflict with Bendis' Secret Invasion miniseries, so Ultimate Origin is getting pushed back until the end of summer 2008. On the ,b>Avengers/Secret Invasion/Illuminati books…When artist Frank Cho finishes his Mighty Avengers arc he will move to the Mighty Avengers Annual featuring an all female Avengers team facing a group of female villains. Mark Bagley then replaces Cho on the series, and he's already finished drawing his arc. After issues #6 and #7 of Mighty Avengers comes out, Illuminati #5 will be released. New Avengers #38 will be a very special issue focusing on Jessica Jones and Luke Cage drawn by Alias co-creator Michael Gaydos. "I don't want to spoil the story but it's called ‘The Break-Up.'" On Secret Invasion...There are clues to who is a Skrull in some of the tho
