Imagine my excitement, when I was able to bring the exhibition The Design of Dissent, and Mirko himself, to Cal Poly. Mirko is wildly intelligent, slightly subversive, really funny, quite bawdy and totally un-P.C. In other words, he's a breath of fresh air in academia. He managed to both inspire and demean my students—California softies—who are in need of a good demeaning once in awhile. I wish I could hang out with Mirko on a regular basis, so I could soak up a little of his brilliance, talent and charm. Thanks for making the first week of my quarter the best ever, Mirko.
