Intertextual Droid...

An interesting point was made during the lecture this afternoon, one which seems to illustrate the richness and potential of this 'ere 'intertextual' idea. I was talking through my Jacob Epstein. H.R. Giger example, and it was suggested that the 'Rock Drill' sculpture also had some resemblance to the droid figures in the later Star Wars films (the rubbish ones).

What this demonstrates quite clearly, I think, is the way in which everyone has their own intertextual 'web' that is constantly sparking off connections and ideas.
