b"We start by viewing one of the film projects that a student did for his midterm: blinking eyes. \\xa0This will be more or less silent in the podcast, for a minute or two. \\xa0Then a discussion of blinking, partly Erwin Goffman style. \\xa0And then on to Vertigo, another movie about repetition: one's own; the world's; the other's. \\xa0Comparison to Groundhog Day\\xa0and Source Code. \\xa0Opening considerations on Freudian repetition, as in Beyond the Pleasure Principle, via an account of the relation of pleasure to instinct or drive (the incentive that a drive aims at or the incentive to reduce unpleasure that drives the drive), and the the beginning of a discussion on repetition compulsion among shell-shocked veterans of the Great War."
