Beginning

This blog exists for the core audience for Big Brother UK: cultural theorists and their graduate students, sociologists, philosophers and the rest. It is for online real-time needlessly intellectual dissection of the programme: what it all 'really means' and 'what it says about the culture'?

The blog will incubate 'Big Brother Theory' in all its forms, to all levels of excess. It invites debates and disputes, theorisations and deconstructions of all kinds. It wants economistic critiques, genealogical studies of celebrity production, psychoanalytic explorations of the desires invited and repelled by CelebReality Media. You can apply neuroscience if you want to.

But we also want to know who you want to win.

Comments are invited. Anyone wishing to initiate a post on which others may comment is invited to e-mail their text to bigbrothersbigtheory@yahoo.co.uk. It will be posted.
