Reading psychotropics and ‘biocodes’ in Spielberg’s Minority Report
How might a 'posthuman' account of drugs and texts be shaped? Rather than to drugs, posthuman critique has turned to more 'materially technicised' readings of the body. I thus point to a number of 'gateways' by which posthumanism might initiate a proper critical consideration of psychoactive drugs, beginning with my reading of Minority Report.

This paper very briefly suggests the possibility of a resurrection of psycholinguistics (and suggests its devalorisation) in relation to the assessment of mental and mood disorders. It does so in the context of a consideration of the emergence, development and epistemic affirmation by the medical science community at large of psychopharmacological medicine.
