Our new feature:

If geniuses still exist in Germany, then Friedrich Kittler, who died
at the age of 68 on 18 October, was one of them. The literary scholar
and media theorist wrote as much about drugs as he did about weapons,
and he was as interested in war as he was in love. One of his PhD
students is a Eurofighter pilot in Afghanistan. Andreas Rosenfelder
talked with him in his Berlin apartment at the beginning of the year.
