I really enjoyed this weeks class on the beginning of post-modernism. I thought it was interesting to go through the many significant events of history and learn that there is no specific beginning date of postmoderism. I also liked how we viewed many different ads of shows and how they were RE-made as time went on, for example That 70's Show. This idea could also be related to the privation of history because when looking at shows like these we do not know where they came from and we assume they are original. However, with show like Lost there is usually another origin related to the idea of the show.

It is great that you have taken a CMC term "privation of history" and linked it with the idea of Retro. It is true that through time we tend to lose the origins of certain things. You have some good ideas and it would be great in your next post if you could expand on them.
