Early hypertext theorist, noted anti-Nintendo crusader and Derrida apologist, Ulmer's texts range from the tenebrous (Heuretics: The Logic of Invention) to the umbrageous (Applied Grammatology) to the downright obscure (The Legend of Herostratus: Existential Envy in Rousseau and Unamuno). The latter is believed to have been read only by the author and a small number of narcissistic masochists employed as University of Florida teaching assistants in the early 1990s.
From his lectures: "If one does not apply grammatology as one applies sunscreen, one's signifier will undoubtedly get burned. And forget about the signified - that'll be toast, too."
Those who know him very well claim he looks exactly the opposite of Sterling Hayden...
