By removing the line that separates fact and entertainment, expertise and the uneducated, Mike Bertino layers commentary and insight on a generation raised by cartoons, video games, and media. He creates a world so overloaded with cultural options and noise, all information is equalized in strength of voice and merit. A world where aesthetics and charisma determine truth so harshly, that self-worth, cultural-history, and reality give way to interpretation and a void of intellectual neglect.
He has a great blog as well here.
