Meta-Phys. Ed likes to put on what you might call The Theater Of Conceptual Ideas.  So it's no surprise that here they're presenting a multi-media cabaret taking off from Walter Benjamin's seminal essay.  Doing it online only makes it more meta (note the title change!).

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  An unreconstructed flâneur like Benjamin would surely want a Boulevardier — even if it's not quite the season for it yet:  pour 1-1/2 oz.Bourbon and 1 oz. each of sweet Vermouth and Campari into an ice-filled cocktail shaker.  Stir.  Strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe.  Garnish with a lemon twist, an orange twist, or a cocktail cherry.
