Resumo

Various authors interested in postmodernism suggest that Las Vegas is a particularly strategic site that promotes and even exaggerates a postmodern logic and 'structure of feeling.' The present ethnographic fragments seek to evoke this postmodern logic through its subjectively experienced structure of feeling. The approach used to produce these fragments consists of juxtaposing postmodern insights; unstructured interviews with, and interventions by, a wide variety of individuals encountered in Las Vegas; and self-reflexive observations in the rapidly disappearing space separating the mediascape from the everyday.
