Thanatacism and Alcopop Marketing


Thanks to McKenzie Wark's notion of #thanaticism and soylent greenification of our food which is becoming more artificial colour and preservative - centric

Ok so I'm riffing about food and how companies are even post-artificial flavouring and now food coloring and preservative centric, so to speak.

The notion of Pineapple Alcohol Infused Detergent or PAID for short, ergo lemonpaid, cherrypaid etc

The alcopop should have the color and texture of industrial detergent. Blue pink green etc

The intoxicant is to be best psychoactive mix of legitimate preservatives if it's cheaper for companies to use than alcohol. But of course, charge the same price or more as your competition. And it means everyone can consume it legally

Have cocktails like *weekend washing*, *dry cleaning martini*, *spin cycle schnapps* that you can drink at Sydney club The Chinese Laundry.

The mission from me being that such marketing as master code is code mixed so much with toxicology that the sense of medical epidemic looms and marketing as master code dies. Oh and lazy design aesthetics too...

And if there's any master code, it's death. Death to toxicological marketing and products.

But sure toxins are ok if not ingested - enjoy cinema and culture responsibly

AND imagine the nightclub in house promos...

...Did you get PAID tonight?

Drink PAID and get laid....

This vermin has legs.

But this isn't mere marketing fatal thanatos. It has to be done by food science and make big mass marketing. Background with money ice-aggro cool and self-congratulations over deep multiplicities of vacuousness afforded by an income. I want a product.

And for the community at large to be provoked, to see social epidemic - enacted in some way. So that an engagement of death driven capitalism by negation gets discussed at large...

And that the legal age to drink is to be raised when you can handle your drink without acting like a combination of ADHD and UFC. I don't blame you though for the lower tolerance to alcohol - it's the epigenetic result of your bong smokin', eckying tripping parents and many other things, including socio-economic problems beyond your control...and the fact that most things are beyond control, means of production and the like that is.

This is a mix and postmix product from Detourne Marketing dot dot

The word became signifier but the signified pointed elsewhere


So, as a poet I am unafraid of language

the notion of incarnation in theology and how it related to embodiment in critical theory and science.

verbo caro factum est - the word became flesh

and there's more to the quote in the Angelus prayer in Latin. and it's in John 1:14 and recited at the end of the Tridentine mass.

secularising, scientising, schizophrenising (a la Deleuze) the notion of words become things is what's aimed in my thoughts of the upcoming poem.

and with the notion of displacement and perdurantism of things
would a word become something other than what it's about, to a schizophrenic

ie - would the word table become the table. maybe the word table becomes a fork. or

if a word is a thing then by recursion, could the word become a word.

here is a line and it's a fork, a vinculum-----------------------------

maybe the phoneme blocks in my throat and I speak flesh. and read it and hear it, and sense it.

that's language becoming thing, or objectivising...I don't know how to use the word object today in light of OOO and I don't like the world being reduced to ready-to-hand and therefore taken for granted even though it's supposed to be pragmatic and get things done, where present to hand supposedly never could. I side with Husserl here.

My point then is arbitrar-ising. Because like Neruda - I have a mind to confuse things, unite them, make them new-born, mix them up, undress them, until all light in the world has the oneness of the ocean, a generous, vast wholeness, a crackling, living fragrance.

and that's the reason, is there ethics there?

That too is important even though poets don't have to be ethicists or Talleyrandists at all but ethics is important to me.

it's a reassemblage...do things require reassemblage at this level?

The non-exchangeable, and no ice, please

Someone boasting about
their awesome bank balance
incessantly

is the same thing
as a capitalist singing you 
the song of their people 

- poet ARP.

Baudrillard's notion of non-exchange applied in current socius (*society, social media and social strata/groups)


the current tribalist urbanism, beard cultures as repetition of indie in an age where no real independent music companies exists.

and why a large bank account, a soccer jersey emblazoned with brewing company "Cristal" and the dilapidated fetishisation of the object brings non-exchange as cultural *snowline* to the cool and vertiginous pose of the accumulators of objects.The real fiscal arch, in the mould of someone like Wallace Stevens, are to be found in auction houses. Every other fiscal display is pretending and therefore transparent n vapid.

What do such fiscal peacocks do when their best taste for money, their conspicuous consumption, is already passe to a street bum?

You just can't buy good cool anymore...it's not in exchange.

FURTHERMORE

the right wing whine of left critique against rich old white men is only based on it being repetitious is a sign of exhaustion. To repeat that it's a victim mentality is only the opprobium of fiscal morality of the already established.

it's a second level myth therefore and blaming the victim for the injustice. Fallacy of unnatural justice. Or are you just being kingkey? We love real estate...

These things are objective and of object inscribed economy. The colaratura of the rich is a psychopathology of fear and stamping in the concrete value by non-exchange or MC Hammer singing "you can't touch this". Or Lord Haw Haw drinking the lemon water tureen.

But the street bum can sneer now. The art you like, the aesthetic you frott to modernist whimper, can be sideswiped by Pozo, Vladimir and Estragon as a piece of shit. The Duchampian finality is - that the big bank balance as object is a piece of shit and all the things you've brought with it, including their street credibility and signification under charmed chandeliers and champagne from Minnesotta. And I haven't even mention Freud yet - but who has to anyway?

The non-exchangeable, or the non-object democratised via an equal distribution in the knowledge economy. Yes they say get a job and I say, waiting for clenched fiscal urinal stream trickle down hyperdesert to rain pennies from heaven.

I understand and I even empathise at insipid liberalism's as ovine mantra...having thought as freshly minted currency in a knowledge economy is an asset, a value pool and it can only be translated to the ovine ovals by crystallisation. But my point ultimately is against the insipid....and the line drawn around crystal palaces in the air - ones that no longer for any one or thing I do care

about

The simpleton's way out of the crystalline is to buy something of value and easily communicated cultural sophistication value. But Beckett beckons your bullshit - beggars belief! And no bouquets for any tu quoques. The bum knows your beaujolais sucks ass, and they giggle.

Even Noam Chomsky has to dress down because it's an economic necessity - ethically and physically. Don't count the lucre in front of struggle street and watch out for the rogue thug mugger. It's unfortunate but the mugger won't complain about old rich white men...they're easy pickings on the wrong side of the street.

Other crystalline values (and they're very fragile...) are access to elite spaces (gentleman's clubs, beautiful dance halls), muscular bodies, urban aggression as pivot to the line of non-exchange and social status antagonism. Postures for a power that is power over.

And the soft passe equanimity of power-to has laurels...power to seduce, power to build, power to sway, power to steal, power to fight. Is it a soft fuzzy crystal? - This is in the shadows, or it's the prismatic spectrum of colours that are visibile, dazzling through the crystal of le venge

but non-perceivable, non sensed to those who only sense the object graspable. This is the zu-hande bias, the to-hand fallacy of Heidegger. Haptic or it doesn't exist. This is facile ultimately and a foundational feature of great analytical cultures.

The other parties of in this architecture besides the crystalised are, the fluid and the recollectable ie memory.

Give me the shovel and the gravedigger, because laughter kills all gravity. Your airs and heirs and hot ere and hot now and hot air forever till Heat Death do us part.

Death crosses lines by night and with impugnity. It kills us all and even them of infinite jest.

But don't be fooled - there's a filthy rich version of Godot under the couture dustman's cap of pricey chic vintage fashion as cultural signifier - the crypto-affluent. If they ever turn right, knock em dead on the head, Ted, mmm perhaps take the bread and the lambspread.

and any token to humanism must overcome and overcompensate, overreach and overarch...double golden arches and triple axle for the saccharine. Even Jesus thinks saccharine is sucks cultural and cinematic ass.

Any questions from the dirty rascals?

Object, Process, Time, Space, Identity orientation in language

The philosophical notion of the interstitial, the relations between objects. the between-ness.

Now, lapsing into Heidegger we see the object bias in language. the between-ness, not an only incredibly baroque abstract noun, but showing language's lean to the "what" of stuff. Or the being as Heidegger notes in his famed Neo-Aristotelianism of being and Being.

Language is object biassed and oriented. Does this necessitate an object orientation in philosophy? Is philosophy still constrained by language's biases?

This is the point of departure for major speculation. For one, the question of language object orientation could beg the speculation of the possibility of language being process oriented, for example.

That language biasses toward the "how" of stuff. Not to mention when and where etc. Speculated base of language therefore could not only include the object orientation but process orientation, temporal orientation, spatial orientation, and identity orientation. All these orientations will discretely influence the others.

We have something like a hypergeometry of multiple orientations and their discrete influences. Or a physic of such. Perhaps following this trajectory to science is a continuity of the object orientation bias, is creating a trajectory of the other orientation/s possible, or their interstitiality. In a object way to imagine how a temporal and process combine and relativity would operate/sound/appear/ feel like, or are we already immersed?

Tip of iceberg.


"The growing disciplines of systems biology, sensory ecology, and chronobiology are founded on the principle of the ontologically equal exchange of information in a state of awareness between the organism and its surroundings. Finally, the tired old issues of illusionism, dualism, and skepticism regarding consciousness can be laid to rest."

I don't really think so. The Fallacy of Systematism we also see in cybernetics

WT2KSB7K7THB

Philosophy of the Grid

Virilio's notion of Pure War inscribed in architecture might be a little histrionic but I don't fault immanent critique for aesthetics, just the maths.

The little dandelion breaking through the street concrete - it's not a fanciful beach. It's the earth as another monster giving us gifts like that. The cracks, the gaps, the voids - it's no longer Heidegger's fork in the road of being. It's material, real, quals and quants, objects and process...the interstitium, the integementum, the pericycle - these are of human and plant world, the gaps where exchanges coo like doves. These gaps are something, Niels Bohr I say answered Heidegger correctly though, he may not have been informed of phenomenological contexts. Dynamic balance in exchanges.

The notion of dynamic balance is not only biological or ecological. It's used in many trades and disciplines - including photography.

These are relations and processes as exchange and flows. asystemic and systemic, complexist flows.

Neurocriticism

In this recuperated state of socialized health via neuroplasticity realizations blissfully blossom.

The uptake of reasoned language - the simplified tone, clarity, economy and the Hemingway toolset so admired as felicity of style. I'm happy with my facility with the prosaic. I celebrate it.

I have an entirety of engagements with this rapprochement with common sense language prescribed by 20th century English (Oxbridge) philosophy.

First is the fields one orients to. I talk now of government policy but not governmentality or governance. I talk of stability but not metastability. I appreciate architecture but I won't giggle at what nomadic architecture could really be in material construct and tensile terms - sure I could blather about fluidity as parametric motif but nomadic architecture with neither domination, basal orientalism or postmodern inversion where the margin is everything. Postmodernity's inclusivity of the margin could be a replication of the Frankfurt model of capitalism - it subsumes what approaches it. But just because the model is mechanistically similar is no fatal Zizekian chiasmic grunt of guilt by association.

Oxbridge common sense English applied to the plural, speculative, poststructural realms of rigour is appreciated because after reading Heidegger, Derrida and Deleuze and Guattari the leap to use stylised new languages or terms are not necessarily warranted.

That leap to neologism should also be examined if we are coders of the void.

The challenge is two ways - that continental tradition use common sense language (speculations, ooo and current realisms are thanked) AND that Oxbridge philosophy draw closer to speculation, pluralism, multiplicitous thought and thought images like Whitehead did and that contemporary logic intimates.

The schizo makes clear sense and the whitebread couch potato agrees that a lot of life is dream in an everyday no bells and whistles way.

Though I can appreciate the drifts and recall the spectrum of topologies that was the experience of a mental health condition. I even have an archive of passable written work that to some were impressive and to me just agog I had achieved that. Articulating this history and work is fulfilling too. The unmanageability and alienation though were very difficult to live in. One of the many continuities in my life was the notion of abundance and my suspicious ambiguity at survivalist and scarcity world views - something I'm keener to today.

Ontologizing Australian Culture

It's funny - tokenism.

It's my decided view at the moment that one huge lump of manifold Australian culture is utilitarian unassumingness. Withholding and withstanding, with/with and holding and standing. An old person doing a hand stand. Epistemological to the point of youth and freedom that is wasted on the old.

A lack of ontology. The large thing that is large is not only an icon of holiday proportion - it's the Big Other. A kind of psychological Big Brother but more about Darwinian anxieties of status where difference is equalised into a flat epistemology but which is though not identical to pluralist egalitarianism.. Some of you would know that in psychoanalysis the disappearance of the Big Other is the end of analysis. If you don't have that big other to overshadow you as monster master signifier you're old and free.

The artistry is then to assume this unassumingness for adaptive success in the wide flat epistemology where withholding and withstanding are not only a stoic badge of courage but a willingness for oppression as mark of physical strength. Mental strength is slowly entering into the equation but only because of the hidden fact that most of our flat epistemology have quietly gone through mental illness and will joke with Robert Welsh that you're suspicious too but withholding is paradoxically ill enough to legislate culturally "I don't know how to have an internal life". Ontology being just silence.

It's why Australian poetry is rural, pastoral as a guide. To tease an ontology is the quiet. The culturally integrated voice of David Malouf, the collegiality of quiet consensus by creeks. That tender rare masculinity - that by its rareness connotes value. Quiet is the value and so thus is unassumingness. I guess in the spirit of Lacan the end of the not-necessarily-Orwellian big Other is not self-same as party time. It's the quiet of Curlewis Creek or the mute boy in an Imaginary Life - you're either told to shut the fuck up or more integratively, be a linguistic gem, the strong silent type with women falling all over you - cute fantasy from an Imaginary Life...

Why quiet I don't know. Is there an audial tumult to this big cultural demographic I examine? Is loudness (via, say, cosmopolitanism) the denied term because of a cultural hyperacusis?

There's a millenium of monastical practice to bond cultural quietism - an entirety of nodding pastoral caring approval. Maybe the world isn't modern or the section I'm mentioning anyway. As quietism continues its cement march through corridors of power and it returns to the consensually agreed beginning of democracy - in Ancient Greece, where quiet was literally, political idiocy.

And I have no remedy, legal or philosophical. It means I also carry no poison. So the manifesto for the ontologizing of where I live which seems to have not much of it. Talking of being, as opposed to knowledge and technical stuff like how I put scoops on my Torana SLR vintage muscle car, is not the same as whinging or navel gazing unendingly uselessly. It's scientific. For a culture where loudness is a automobile motor yet research excellence is within Biology and it's offshoots like biomedicine and biomedical engineering. The cochlear implant - why Australian? Perhaps the cultural quietism....

The quietism, even with correlational philosophies of mind with Sam Harris and Daniel Dennett (now that's a huge guess so please feel free to delete at least Daniel's name but it won't affect the point), is much like the joke

"X is asked to pick one of three doors by Satan for his brimstone eternity. Door 1 sounds of chaos, 2 pain and screams, 3 though is a low quiet thrum. On being thrust into Door 3 X is up to his lower lip in shit and the others quietly say "don't make waves".

Opposing - Beckett says if you're up to your neck in shit you might as well sing. Scientifically - the peak wisdom of cultural quietism is the misguided mentoring of "observations affecting systems so please, no observations."

We are immersed in observation. Observation is actually fabric. There's no outside to it. It is embedded. Observation doesn't require what we call human - observation occurs whenever there are two electrons present. That is basically the whole universe except for modern experiments of atom splitting up to photon isolation requiring incredibly complex machines and more money than one countries defence budget - like the Large Hadron Collider.

So praising the engineer is kind of redundant but it does keep war and the global economy going and local culture understands the garage. But even an engineer would say - oh the Large Hadron Collider: the company who had the cheapest quote using the cheapest materials and labour got the contract, and heads shake. Back to fatal correct quietism even for the engineer. It all ends with a whimper sayeth TS Eliot.

Engineers are used to being told they're idiots, idios in the Ancient Greek, and become very quiet. The people who rebuke them are architects and scientists. Just ask them, any of them.

And what's being said is observation is ubiquitous. No need to hide heads in sand - we have to knowledge, we have the technology. Time to be ontological like they always were in cultures that pick up women easier than you.

Ontology, that is. Coming out of the Continent, the USA and UK.

And now - well Australia cos we are young and schweet

and yes, it's a project, the cultural ontologising of the fair wide brown land - not only cultural, scientific and philosophical but political as the experts become more and more bureaucratic and celebratedly cruel and big Othering to the law, and say, visa laws or land laws, employment laws and health laws

but hell, even engineers know you can change a law. Taking it all lying down is usually what's done but when they take the entitlement away of lying down and 4 weeks holidays, then navel gazing about science, quantum and being the best you can be cognitively or with wellbeing, is another way to be.

You know Frank Sinatra sing-sang that song well on the all the world's stages - dobedobedo too, Australia.

One ontological point at the moment, from Levi Bryant, is that difference actually makes being. No wonder, perhaps then, Australia never pondered ontology much, traditionally

Science and Philosophy - salt and pepper

s - monstrous problems, limits, varied access to results via theories and models, workable, materially mechanisable, kindly prove me wrong it sincerely and necessarily asks, methodical, optimism of cosmos, everyday militarisms - yet with ontological naivete

p - ontological rigour, dialogue, refinements, indifferences, counter-intuitive, political, consistencies, turning, spinning possibly, mechanisable metaphysically, conceptual, it proves you wrong as it targets everything - the ambitious become arch of social ruins and will find dulcet hermitage

both immersed, embedded, speculative and discrete. One's the lover and the other one goes on without them.

Pepper philosophy loves wisdom - that knows it doesn't know; and salt science just knows and understands - it makes and quenches thirst.

Can't you see I'm right/Can't you see I work without that?

Philosophy has a garden it's stuck to and wants the greener-otherness cache of science because it died from universal indifference and hunger, of hatted hit-bliss hermitude. "What have you done for me lately?" asks Jackson science.

Even by bang or whimper we're done, science will be at the end, as cause and effect thereof say the people. With endlessness so too and all legally centralised stuck exclusions that philosophy knew. Push it, good.

GeoTrauma

Debord's psychogeography is aesthetically staged

Deleuze's Geo- is a "science" of violence

and maybe why I'm a cinema snob.

"A number of 'ecological' theories of cinema have emerged in recent years, many of which remain bound by antiquated models of figure and ground. These models typically belong to a pre-cinematic aesthetics of nature, sustaining an image of humanity uninformed by the recent prospect of species self-extinction. We hereby propose a new model for conceiving of this relation, one based upon Nick Land's post-psychoanalytic notion of geotrauma, and which suggests that the earth as ground gives rise not just to territories but moreover to processes of ungrounding. These processes are recapitulated in the human history of a traumatic relation to this (non)ground, suggesting a properly geophilosophical understanding of cinema that observes catastrophism as a genetic principle. Of consequence for any attempt to theorize human artifice and design under the present 'environmental' moment, such an understanding presupposes a thoroughgoing revaluation of creative practice and process. We hereby provide a reading of three recent films in which the figures or iconography of the natural environment reflect this 'revolt' against ecological fixity. Visions of catastrophic environmental change force us to reconceive of the very concept of nature as something fundamentally at odds with our perception of what is natural. We thus combine Land's theory of geotrauma with Deleuze's conception of cinema to argue that the cinematic image testifies to a 'pantraumatic self-movement', one by which the relations between parts forming the conditioned or ecological whole are subjected to a universal ungrounding, and therefore by which something necessarily unconditioned escapes its 'natural' conditions. This geophilosophical emphasis upon escape, flight or deterritorialization should replace the ecological aesthetics of figure and ground with a perceptual catastrophism, disrupting every naturalizing appeal to an harmonic relationship between the human and non-human, cultural and natural worlds."

introducing geopsychology in the emergent Geomedicine.

Abstract

Temporal and regional variations in psychological processes have been associated with three geological factors. They are geochemical profiles, geomagnetic variations, and tectonic stresses. In the geochemical domain, copper, aluminum, zinc, and lithium may influence the incidence of thought disorders such as schizophrenia and senile dementia. These common elements are found in many soils and ground water. Geomagnetic variations have been correlated with enhanced anxiety, sleep disturbances, altered moods, and greater incidences of psychiatric admissions. The effects are usually brief but pervasive. Transient and very local epidemics of bizarre and unusual behaviors are sociological phenomena that sometimes precede increases in earthquake activity within a region; they have been hypothesized to be associated with tectonic strain. Many of the contemporary correlations between geological factors and human behavior are also apparent within historical data. The effects of geophysical and geochemical factors upon human behavior are not artifactual, but they are complex and often not detected by the limited scope of most studies.

Geophilosophies and geopoetics (geopoieia)

And thus the field of trauma broached in postcolonial discourse. Geotrauma - and its scientific research. South American geochemical soils contribute to medical research. The wildness of Exile Heterotopias of Raul Ruiz, the crookedness of country and people, body of earth.

Geopsychology and the geopsyche.

Psychogeography  is discursively quite facile in comparison - even though it's engendered heated theoretical political debate.

Pacific Standard Time

In a previous existence, short though it was, I practiced stillness and meditation and would arc through thought and comet wave of sphere underpinning string and pulsing bow,

dotted fleet to return and wrote modulo solidus in the skein of line, graphe and leather doubloon ersatz forgotten desinance

In the larval tilde of tessalation traced, between you and me

For second rest and the insight I sat. 20 minute sittings and yes there were scans and we thought /a to health with it/

I set the alarm, as foreign as that may seem to many and then roamed, Iguaza Falls reigned thoroughly from peak ground zero and and and

in the diminuation-meander I thought I would open my eyes

I held the alarmist timepiece of an Edison, the smell rosemary memorial of Skapa shoals by the by of horses

and 20:00 flashed

soundly in front of my eyes.

Occupy what?

So - the emperor is naked. Say hello to the new boss, same as the old boss.

But how about this to stir the wasps nest. "I like your old stuff better than your young stuff"

The word whateva takes precedence, does it not? The being-dismissed out of what the commons people of Occupy and rebellion and anarchy and all rebellions soft and sweet is the bone or pie of contention.

And the anti-intellectual but nevertheless intelligent say "get over it - it will all work out in the end".

I think of my butt and the guarantee that shit happens.

To the occupiers and the didacts who want to show me the emperor's donger - well, yeah, nothing no-one has never seen before. Bullies, black-eyes and also some real bad bruises.

It is understandable and I think it would be remiss for ostracised people NOT to have the shits.

But is that it? wallowing in frustration? That capitalism does not give us free money to buy our feathers and caps to strut like cocks of the walk or spray our scent so you get one you want?

It's a question of distribution of money. And distribution of employment. And as well the healing of the rift between animal alpha pimps and hoes - and the rest of us plane jane and schmoes looking at the pornography of desire and actually thinking we deserve better.

Thinking won't do it. A lot of activists reach a point of desiring threshold to bring down the Patriarchy and the Imperialist Semiotic Machine. The discursive and economic spores and spermatozoa to make scents in the countries of riches. While hell freezes and Africa starves for no good reason. Surplus produce... is inflammatory. You can't give free food without some engine starting. And I thank my friends and fellow activists for nourishing my soul and my body.

and it starts from there - and it can end there. Letting spirits rest.

But let's take up the Occupy challenge. So, the rebellious spore and spermatozoa and scent. Let it have it's Rio de Janeiro of cake and pussy time. Now, Chomsky opines that the system is too big too fail. And he's pragmatic.

So shall the activists keep working themselves into a lather? And showing all that those well placed in everyday mercantilism on a micro-economic level that economic DISTRUST and social hypothermia rules?

When I say economies, I mean social, financial, fiscal, libidinal, sexual, creative, electronic and domestic home economies.

Trust lost - and it's cold inside too - Hell Hath Frozen Over and the mad winds belong to everyone - those who run the symbiosis, those who attack it, those who live in it comfortably and those who snuggle up to someone and does not wish to think about it or are unable to make decisions.

Well - the social buck stops here. Not only now is there geo-economic hunger, and intransigence military-industrial-media and governmental. I am forced to re-evaluate all values of economics.

Economics tells us in clear terms that money is a nominal value based on the ups and downs of markets macro - micro and interconnected.

The old native American Indian jibe of the capitalist unable to eat money when the last tree is gone is anthropological fairy floss - so let me give you a toffee apple.

Geo-Economics or Ecology as guiding principle to governance and therefore economics and the city is the ground.

The value is not in invisible hands or even what Timothy Morton wrote a few months ago - that human beings are ghosts that radiate isotopes.

We are flesh, blood, scent, sweat, hair, sperm, and all the abject and the beauty of eyes lips, lashes breasts hands buttocks arms, strengths.

Yes we are made of carbon and have a small radioactivity within us. Therefore it is imperative that to manage the Radioactive in us that the first value is by necessity Bio-Value.

I questioned tonight - why do humans see themselves quite so high up the food chain. Wouldn't it be more sensible that the fundaments of the food chain be solidified in seed banks, phytoplankton fars, clover commons, that recuperates the anthropocene?

And while where on the topic - the animal in us or the animal we think animals are - would require a re-evaluation of taxonomy to see them in the stark day of light.

The tightest belt of animal taxonomy I can think of.

The Non-imal.

autochtoneity - for Rajiv


Thanks for your time - to define indigeneity or the colonized as non-equine cultures is consistent. Yes in Native America - horses were there and disappeared and the mythic prophecies of the horse's return came true.


when I speak about models of successful resistance in engaging Discovery colonialism most Anglo-Europeans get  the shits - dunno why - I can guess... the horse is the fundament of World Power. And to make an inkling that two non-equine cultures exist uncolonized, unappropriated or not co-opted - the anger is a fascism full stop.

non-equine indigenous cultural successful resistance to Discovery colonization - patagonia and an island in the Indonesian archipelago

horse = horse power
sex = war
from the seeds and eggs of families - and differing models of familiarity - autochtoneities (indigenous) are seen as brutish by European etiquette social ethic and yes if the river makes noise it is because there are stones that are carried in it or - stereotypes are based on some truth.

in an autochteneity of no walls. 


The war machine of housed cultures and horse-dynasties think of their justifications and hail maries. This is seen in the apologetics of Liberalism. 


Back to colonization. Royal houses, the familial proximities of the euro-royalty - is an ecology of familial power structures that are an an-oedipal organism that spreads as Power. 


It is not as if the autochtonous war machine is imperialist - it seeks inhabitance and obviously open to cohabitance - recognition is enough at times. And resistance followed that being educated in Australia I never heard the name Pemulwuy until I was 29 years old!


In Chile the token was made by marked mention of the Mapuche nation in the national anthem. In Australia? Sorry and the wisdom of leaders to develop a bridge to cohesive national inhabitance - more sorries obviously and ego-dissolution to be embraced as acceptance in the future.

and of politics? equality - equal - equus - with this non-equine culture uncolonized there is a political superiority and therefore a psychological superiority (Nietzsche) - unfortunate but suck eggs. And Calle 13 - a rapper who made a magnificent eco freestyle rap caused a riot in his becoming-earth - and to hear it was without equal - his album is called "no hay igual" trans. there's no equal - no horses except hay for the iguana - to play on the imperfect cognates to English. Everyday unique diversity - just big it up because they are good... this was one press report.

the rapper backed by a band of Conservatorium-gravitas caused a riot in the theatre of this International song festival - I would like to translate that rap because it is incendiary poetics fuelled by the destruction of Patagonia by the current Neo-Con government for what has been exposed as false economic bottom-line analysis and reportage - multiple bottom lines. The era of smartphones and internet now stops the Chilean President, also major Media Mogul and the major shareholder of LAN airlines, creating media red herrings.


CALD is imho great and useful for governmental governance when used correctly - as community members who affirm social distributive capital. Yet socially preferable to me is a holistic appreciation of diversity from cybernetic and second level order cybernetics as anthropologist  Gregory Bateson described, that's my personal sociology.


The value here is not the j'accuse of classical European discourse but of non-equal diversities - uniqueness in ecology being the grounds of science and community. A social inclusionism around that! 


A reminder for a sociological awareness of the struggle to be de-orientalised. Sad militancy is common esp in the margins. Dems de breaks sometimes and monumental movements like jazz would not have happened without that. I have gone through such struggles Rajiv.


Anger is also part of Universal production - to be inculcated in the system. Seeking commonalities developing productive differences - community specific if needs be. Walls are good for studios, libraries and other positive giftings of Equined Cultures (European and Asian)

The being bi-lingual and approaching the roots of Romance and Germanic language allows for etymological unity and difference. The differences are funny in imperfect cognates and sometimes very telling from my perspective - one can read too much into it - but if I follow Chomskyian linguistics - positing a deep linguistics then one reads the world and all its glory and strife from imperfect cognates. Here is an example - the word Male in English - the imperfect cognate in French male means "evil" - surface and depth linguistics - it is comical and I am reminded very much of Fawlty Towers. 


The din of conflict is too much for many except for the anarchist strain, french poststructarilists (NOT postmodernists), inhabitance sociologists, biosemiotics and rigorous hybrid sciences.

I keep my anchor points and references to respected academic authority strong - or else it is all piss and wind, fancy and sickening violins of orientalisation and the victims of orientalisation.



My goal? An individual and community goal of communication and practice - to speak generally and be wise to correction -- not correctional facilities - jail hospital university church.

Post scriptum - in the face of increasing neo-conservative insults to the commons  and environmental vandalisms in the US Europe Middle East Latin American and I now believe in India with forced migrations - here is a humble translation of the song/rap - the video comes with a preamble from the performer describing his travels in the towns and ports of the country.

To my ears these are artists becoming warrior-animals howling, these are gardens of my frequenting and frequencies.

Themed show - Customs

Here is a curatorial idea - a show for the consideration of your artists.

Working title - "Customs"

Academic background from Pierre Bourdieu and his notion of habitus (one's habits and daily environments where one plys them) and further works.

Customs as the border at national entry - passports, anything to declare, quarantine and illegal flora and fauna (incl people smuggling)

Customs as traditions - personal customs/habit (issues of repetition, ennui, addiction, grooming, OCD, for example) cultural customs (the orientalisation of food fairs, ethnic dancing and personas, cultural profiling)

The one thing that can be connected in these notions of customs is how they relate to each other in terms of multicultural inhabitance, hybridity, and revolution degree zero the curator terms as "the milkweed seed revolution" we are seeing now from the middle east to the mediterranean, and greater europe - all with markedly different agenda and representations -

that flora, dusts, messages digital cross over - a border aesthetic of hybridity - in terms of personal/social consciousness and conscience - of ecos - of tensions between ecology and economy - personal social national - the taxonomies of classical discourse - the border crossings here.

(sometimes I feel like downgrading all my citizenships to permanent residencies - and keeping my passports, with nothing to admit and nothing to declare)


The Field of Cultural Production - Cartels and Cartons

The tribes of Essenes who took hallucinogenic mushrooms - the Aegean tales of smoking cannabis - the Pharoahnic orders of priests who developed beer - the liquers of Monasteries - the spirits of the New World (bourbon, rum and coca-cola).

And the yields and crops of the Field of Cultural Production. As a resident goat, who lost a rifle and found the short-cut in Pan's Labyrinth video game - I navigate haphazardly, as someone on a ghost ship of shipwreck - newly fragmented by the whipping seas and the sensitivities to profiling.

Profiling - in the case of OJ Simpson I recall David Letterman made a joke about OJ's biography "From Zero to Hero to Shapiro" - Judge Shapiro of the US Courts. And humour comes at a death of an emotion, and in most cases from death itself - the ones that make it to the media.

No better thing than shoot-em-ups - dramatic or reported - all filters at all times.

I will keep the holster well buttoned.

Profiling - most decent human beings have been profiled, and probably not to their complete liking. The copyrighting of one's image can no longer be faithful today. That person though is a member of a community - does one apply the media filter to the person who one works with?

"Support the artist that supports you" - James Ryan winner of the Australian Jazz Bell Awards 2011 Cross-Disciplinary category.

Having worked in the music industry as a support professional - with CV in hand and having done things in other fields that if it equated their audience in terms of numbers - well,

"Support the professional that supports you" - AARP 2009

Of course, all within the budget of the artist - separate business from pleasure. And I put my professional buskers hat here. Audience development and show the professional some love - this one is not an artist by living but has the same povertous jacket and history of chemical brothers and sisters.

Further in terms of music - the notion of "accelerated culture" - taking antecedence from the creation of amphetamines and then the use of them in counter culture, rave culture and just culture in general - is a beautiful brimming cup and in what cupboard are they...we will find out. The few that I know that I have made disclosures to, but are not personal friends - well, they are the cellars, distributors of such notions.

Time is the last place

As Werner Herzog noted in an interview about inhuman or rarely explored place, the language surrounding it can be dangerous. Embracing the rarely inhabitable place as a condiment in the spice rack brings new sensations - johnny cash had a song of caution around this

I will play one chord of the altermodern "Time is the last place [to explore]"

A chanson of Bergson, separating Space and Time - in global science this lost out to Kant and ultimately Einstein nailed Time as a separate region with in a funerary Tardis.

Yes the elasticity of experienced time - duree. It is the sense of duration of time. What is time without duration except another space? It is the fabric. As space has so many ascriptions to it. first of affect, then surface, solidities and it mutates into an eternal production line. Spacetime.

I picked up snippets of Bergson's duree from text and long conversations with friends that seemed like hours then, and was approximately so, and now I remember them vividly as approximately so. The joke here is that yes a poetic sliderule can be used. Poetry for poetry's sake though, is obsessive. Try something different for a change of habit.

Bourriaud then is like all good frenchmen, duelling dullly with Germans. Timespace. To accord respect to altermodernity then. Bergson smiling shadow is given light.

How do we, can we sense the space of Time? That is another article. Changing the order of semipermeable taxonomic terms yields different results and different investigations. Quo - temporalising space yields different results. In subjectivity, and human production. The temporalizing of the human.

An old wives tale says that rosemary is good for memory. So as the experimenter, I walked and smelled the rosemary bushes as the aromas travelled to me, with an immediacy that endured rains, storms, worms and summer. I took a small bag of rosemary home and smelt it, took it in, intoxicated by smell, a drunkenness of days - for a about 5 minutes in the morning for a week. Did I remember anything?

I walked to work and past a greenhouse. I looked and the sun glinted off the windows into my eyes. I suddenly smelt rosemary. For a split second, - the recollection of  that stayed with me for days - my vision went black and everything of me was transported back home with my face in the small bag of rosemary. A second later, I regained presence, and kept walking. One of the most amazing experiences of my life. I remember it now, this happened in 2009 and the memory came to me today. Memory in this experience, if memory is a metaphor, became literal. It was time travel not of memory as senses but as total body to place of presence. Time travel to a past space in chronology. This opens the experience to non-linear travels.

The life of time are different curves and waves and colours, a map of various, intermittent landscapes, hills reappearing but changed as hills change in seasons, weathers and plantations. Really, Julie Andrews as Sister Maria in The Sound of Music? Belief matters not. But there are bears, raccoons, antelope, and other Austrian beasties, like Moose in them hills. The hills are alive with music, but let's not get too belle epoque convent-girlies, well, there are rabbits and kittens and foxes tied up in thick string too. Crickets, and wind in trees and aeroplanes in friendly skies - that is all music.

Earth Art was of a time and the music from it. I heard stories of earth art musicians digging holes and connecting tensioned wires to sturdy trees and creating sound frequencies, akin to plucking harp strings with the hole dug as the resonance board. Cannot find references yet. People visualise memory, Proust made memory tactile and olfactory. (Tripping on the break in the footpath jogged memories and of course, the aroma of perfumes and rosemary.) Hearing your memories, not just recollecting conversations, but hearing time - that is a semipermeable taxonomy that is diagnosed as inappropriate affect in Medicine.

If Proust x Bergson then A la Recherche du Temps Perdu could have been 20 pages. Proust prayed to the patron saint of lost objects, to not accumulate, but recuperate or revisit the Times he found. The Lost Times, well, they probably in the back of his writing chez-lounge.

Timespace. The afterlife is a time and not a place and it exists in the vocabulary of timespace, so do imagined histories like CS Lewis and Tolkein Middle Earths, and Tardises. People inhabit space, spacetime, time, timespace. The afterlife is a literary device, no-one on earth lives there, some people want to get there, by leap or natural causes.  If people do live there, they either are in a jail in life, or keeping very very quiet. The previous lives! Please shut up now. It's like hearing your great dream, it is vanity and no-one cares except your girlfriends or so they say.

But pay attention when someone tells you their history, that is at least real, without the frippery of technologies, successes or limits of understanding.

Anglo-Australian culture and mimesis

"You can tell a lot about a culture in the way they rhapsodize about their horses" - a corruption of a Mahatma Gandhi meat is murder quote.

There was movement at the station as the news had got around that the cold from Old Regret had got away...

The Man from Snowy River, The Song of Roland, Don Quixote, Equus, ...

and then there are the cultures that don't have horses.

Horses for courses. - In Anglo-Australian culture, the pasts of racism, the Black History, Empires of Eternal Sun, there are places of mass murder - and fair enough, they happen everywhere in colonisation, when they become part of the curriculum or of a nation's culture. I wonder if later high school they teach Australian History of Colonial Wars and Massacres. The mirror back is not nice, and thus the general anti-intellectualism of Anglo Australia. But they Anglo-Australia can tell a joke and mimick. I would celebrate this, the rough, and politically incorrect comedy of Rodney Rude and Kevin "Bloody" Wilson. If you turn the volume down, you hear nothing.

Come Fly With Me from the Little Britain comedians, has a skit with a racist Airport Internal Security Officer, questioning a new staff member of an airport shop.

"Where were you born? Pakistan??"
"No, Birmingham!"
"What about your parents??"
"Um Birmingham"
"Okay, your grandparents?"
"Yeah, Pakistan"
"So, if England played Pakistan in the cricket, who would you support?"
"I don't follow cricket, I like Wrestling!"

and the satirised contemporary security interrogation is scuttled and funny. It is mimesis - satirising racist mimickry and being self-reflective about it. This self-reflection is an ethical admission and that's why politically correct English can handle this comedy. - It is a re-embodied mimickry and will be Benny Hill in 10 years. Maybe why Benny Hill was loved by the French after leaving the UK might be something for you to consider.




Non-English listening Pakistani immigrants would just see interrogation. Potentially confusing, no? Present this surface reading to the self-reflective chortling socialist, they may worry and get the guilts again. Any comedy where you can turn they volume off and not see ostracisation is politically correct. The three stooges though are guys from the same culture - volume on or off, it's the same thing really. It's an artless physical humour working off schadenfreud. Schadenfreud and the goat - the best schadenfreud is when the misfortunate other is a cause of great misfortune themselves aka poetic justice - as if Hitler were the scapegoat. Michael Palin rhapsodized over Chile and Argentina for a reason.....he learnt the secret bound by death. He would have been killed on the spot but for his continuing global humanitarian services to the humours.


The white Australian comedy of mimickry as opposed to mimesis, is swell of Anglo-Australian culture. There is no groundswell though, unless if Anglo Australian culture is the culture of prison. A culture of dismissing, not the herd mentality of mimesis, but the undomesticated brumby packs of mimickry. In European modernity, mimesis is cautious of herd-mentality. Mimickry is environmental, not individual, the coo-ee needs the response. If you don't fit in easily, learn mimickry, respect the Austrlian accent, which is so culturally and internationally fragile in a global politics which works on sophisticated mimetic exchange. Anglo-Australians who realise that power in politics or culture where mimesis is the lingua franca - have got to come across  to a wild mimesis. Mimickry is funny and scapegoating. Watch the goats, they can consume anything, live in all lands. It is an ordinariness of living.

Sometimes cunts can be like this.



Mimesis is political and can be shot up, shot across, or shot down.

Mimickry is the kookaburra, is Rodney Rude's theory of how Vietnamese names came around. The Cronulla Riots was a cultural groundswell and is part of the mutation of Australian Multiculture as the ground.

Assimilation assumes one culture and conforming to this. Conforming to National Laws though I have no issue with.

Multiculturalism is damned. Multiculturalism is totally fucked. That is why it's the best, because it reflects what Australia has been since the end of World War II. Love the fuckedness. I speak as a wog though. The aboriginal people will have their own writing on this and I appreciate their general talk of connectedness to everything. It is what the West can't do, from the universal to the particular -- it's a worry for the gubbas. How aboriginal peoples engaged with the arrival of domesticated horses I would love to know.

Social Worker talk of "mainstreaming" gave Governments and institution a kudos of contemporary discourse which is in no way deserved or accurate, at all.

Fuck the social worker acronyms - CALD - Culturally and Linguistic Diverse. It's a funny and inappropriate word - because using only two terms as the focus of diversity in society is a malapropism. They are keeping their eyes on social diversity - all two of them.

Mimickry is earthly and earthy. Mimesis is earthly and domesticated. Come clean white feller, on the global political stage there are much smaller and less resource rich third world countries that have more political clout than Australia. Barry Humphries was good enough to coin a cultural cringe. In the Australian culture, there are many types of this. Thissy here is a fringe cringe.

Inhabitance

http://tap.sagepub.com/content/19/6/728.abstract

"Yet I show that, from an epistemological point of view, habitus theory is not deterministic. Bourdieu’s treatment of this concept implies at least three principles that exclude determinism: (1) the production of an infinite number of behaviors from a limited number of principles, (2) permanent mutation, and (3) the intensive and extensive limits of sociological understanding. After identifying and describing these principles, I show the reason for their incompatibility with a deterministic perspective and consider their implications for the corresponding model of action."

Habitus, Psychology, and Ethnography: Introduction to the Special Section Theory & Psychology December 2009 19: 707-711Mathieu Hilgers
--

Here goes,

habitus in this writing, is principled, theoretic, a productivity is modeled to create infinity and spanning denoted zones (inside/outside)

the notion of inhabitance from me, As the above quote from Neruda presents, it is an intention for hybridity as making a Chilean salad. Pablo Neruda wrote a book "Elemental Odes" where odes to various things elemental like rocks ("certain rocks" as his turn of phrase happenstance), tomatoes, ("dressing the salads of Chile") , a pair of socks, - they are everday - poetry for him is to make the everyday esteemed, and celebrated with wine. The mediterranean style celebration.

t's celebration not like potlatch when it became political by becoming destructive of "wealth" products in the ceremonial exchange, - especially when Western Industrial products, like furs, books, and other assorted consumer items were burnt and was deemed illegal for 70 years. This is not the disordered "word salads" of medical symptamotology. It's an old term.

The Chilean celebration is the asado, the barbie, salads, dancing, wine, music, dirty songs, teasings and jokes - traditionally. Chilean male to male, and female to male, is by jokes and teasings. Any Chilean or anyone with that heritage and connected to the tradition knows this by heart and exchange. Distinctively, the celebration is immediate "ya empezo el hueveo" - "now the jokes have started". To bring you along, when  Chilean good friends meet and embrace, men usually, commonly they would start - heeeey, fatso haven't seen you for ages! - yeah baldy, how you been? "ya empezo el hueveo" as you could read, if there is no acquaintance or the friends are estranged, it can usher on physical fights, ugly, because there is no native or national martial art from the land - just warriorhood from the sovereign indigeneous nations- but that's another story. Watch out for cutting implements at the salad table - just a rule of thumb.

I will push slowly now. I sensed that I "look" at landscapes, I look at the lay of the land of discourse, and mix up the taxonomies, like a salad. I am in discussion with an economist regarding psychopathological labels of global economics and credit agencies (Moodys - Standard and Poors), he let go a raft of the metaphors of economics. Besides the manic depressive nature of global economics as was pointed by Alan Greenspan, Ex-head of the Federal Reserve 2008 - Bear and Bull markets - Keynsian terms, he described as "animal spirits" metaphors. The arbitrariness of money value - that all commerce students know. Pluck Adam Smith's Invisible hand. So I read the metaphors of discourse and then approach from another metaphorical model to mix things up, as the blog quote denots.

So I read things, poeticaly - metaphors, and then mix the taxonmies with other metaphors culinary wise,  or like a highschool chemistry lab experiment. Throwing models together through semipermeable taxonomies - the blog title itself borrows from biologies - cellular biology and classificational biology. Solanum lycopersicum with a small percentage of sodium chloride it is good for the anatimo.

Reading.

As I am want to look for the point of entry through these surfaces - It is visual as poking and probing - but the Simpson Aliens had exhausted all research possibilites.

Looking

Have I seen what I looked at, or did I look at what I saw - Hart Crane

So I explore other senses - searching for intensive or extensive limits - hearing, tactile. And traveled on landscapes with those. Much has been made of traveling in nomadology.

Habitus as percieved by the senses - what ever mode of sense (say visuality) and submode (surveying, readerly) - which ever sense or way of that sense -is habitus as perception.

If Robert Anton Wilson wanted to remove the word "is" to open up perception from ascription. I would like to remove the word "as". So that immediacy, and it's ascription of time as distance (it's nearly 8oclock, "I should go home soon" - can be mutated to the term "inhabitance" - playing with the senses, in ways semipermeable, like discursive synaesthesia, or celebration. Latin American "asados", salads and chimichurri, pebre (great home made green and red liquid mix of medium chilli, but liquid, not Tex Mex or even Mexican salsa. - I know not yet how to do this marvel) - a friend's mother calls it "pasta base" - freebase sauce - oh Gloria you are wicked hahaha.

The mix of the chimicurri is not Latin American but South American - damn, is there an Oda al Chimichurri , Versos al Pebre? I am sure there is, maybe not in Neruda's work but I will check a major selector, "Pablo Neruda is my homeboy" - the first facebook Neruda group I joined - I looked at it in the mix, hybrid way - I now taste the fine chimichurri,- hang with the cross-cultural homies - yes. Inhabitance - so many great works by Neruda, and the uses of inhabitance is his joy - "Residency on Earth", Canto General (General Song), The Captain's Verses, Winter Garden, and his first publication and culturally embed is "20 songs of love and a song of desperation" - everyone in that country knows it, damn I speak English and I know it.

Inhabitance - taking up the modes, navigating the Chilean Archipelago through open submodes, rocky submodes (paranoia, inattentiveness, unfeeling, frostbited for examples). Vast submodes - visionary, cosmic, universal, global) (submodes of mobility - travel, nomadology, sedentary, acrobatic, flexible, contortionist) and the chapters of hands. In the Chilean Archipelago, you will find Robinson Crusoe Island, where the real-life person ascribed in th novel was shipwrecked. Easter Island....I would not go there - get lost in the subterranean cities, those Moai. Bah! Chiloe and its traditions - a magic place.

mix them up - the infinity factor comes in - I believe there has been calculation of submodes and then the mix of these (paranoid vision, inattentive cosmic unfeeling universal ---)_ these are unproductive modes Productive modes are inhabitances, obviously. And fun. And the complexity of productive modes, submodes and these mixes, and then mixed the with the same in the anti productive and and the same in unproductive - is the soup we are made of. Autochtonous, a common word in Castillian, not so English....Primordial? Leave that to Carl Sagan and Mel Brooks. Discursive, metaphorical, inhabited soups? hahahah is there an Ode to the Soup du Jour? My father recalled a handful of times in his life something an acquaintance said to him in old 1950s Chile "no mucho sopa para la cabeza" - not too much soup for the head. Yes the cryptic shit my dad uttered - a Winey Shatner as therapeutic homilies. Must have been a soup glut one year in the obsession of the underclass home made cook books...

To produce modals, submodals and mix them up has been done in cybernetics as linguistics, anthropology, psychology, and my preferences. Read the snippet again. Un abrazo calido - warm embrace. The farewell to go home, abrazos (hugs) to sign off familial and friendly emails. The cut point of Latin cultures. Across people. Embrace and hey be good, take care.

Inhabitance by walking, home life. The dancing there is different - people of certain communities gather at dance halls from kids - to flirties, to slight more flirtiers, to married with prams, to the old happy people.  inhabitance

This is not literalisation of metaphors, but the swimming in them, passing through them, don't fucken play El Condor Pasa, just fucken don't! hahahah ya empezo el hueveo! Inhabiting metaphors. Nietzsche mentioned mobile metaphors in his powerful work "On Truth and Lie in the Amoral Sense". That metaphors move.

End of the World, Cape Horn, Archipelago. Wild glaciers
Adventure "Psychocentric" Travel as Travel Management
Theory has it. Michael Palin visited here in his Pacific Rim
BBC Show. He as well sold tickets to the regions as
Mr Frank Bounder, Manager of Adventure Travel
in a Python skit-
"Hello!, Bounder of Adventure!" - he still cracks me up ;)
This is spicy territory for leaky boats and nationalists.
Nietzsche and the mobility of metaphor. Submodes of sedentary, walking, balanced, flexible - ha - Zarathustra sees the tight rope walker fall - a beautiful death as Philipe Petit said of his Twin Tower walk, if it ended badly - Nietzsche's tightrope walker falling to his death and Zarathustra eulogizing his death and dying through his passions. The other "clown" on  that tightrope, far more nimble, jumps, taunts and teases the tight rope walker. It is sad, but don't take it personally, Nietzsche is a navigator, a ship sailor, a marine lover as Irigiray smiles. The channels through the archipelago take art, balance, concentration engendering flexibility, to go pass the taunter. Engagement with the clown taunter was a comedy of acrobatics misplayed. On the tightrope though , there is not many places to go to hahaha the tightrope walker in this case missed the comedy of the taunt due to singular, linear path over a height. Professional tightrope walkers in the circus tradition with training and performance obviously hop, jump, and do fancy bodywork. Nietzsche's dead tightrope walker was a poor plodding sod. Hahaha, the other tightrope walker, the clown, - he was the professional. And guilty of tragedy. But it's not that bad, as tightrope goes, Nietzsche's is using a taught singular beginning - end acrobatic feat. It is walk the walk, talk the talk, tragicomic acrobatics with some priest-foil atheist.

I think the tightrope scene in Zarathustra currently that this is a homily - caution, nimbleness as virtues or anti-Lutheran preaching don't take the narrow path, take many paths or wider, safer, more scenic, warm, sensual and interesting paths.

I am reminded of Dauno Martinez, Sydney based bass player and the nicest badass you would really like to meet, hear and smile with. The virtuosity, yes, the poetics from the virtuosity, yes, the stratosphere, yes, the bottom end to make a groove rhythm inhabiting different altitudes, grounds, environments, poetics of his electric pedal use to make the mixes - wonderful, the ability to respect the genre, that is there.

Borges said that the history of the world can be drawn back to a few metaphors. He had a unique originariness. Back to the original few "walls" - which Cortazar played with in his opening story of Bestiary - where a tenant inhabits a new house. And someone in that house is making walls, more walls, until the protagonist is walled out of his house.

Neruda liked Borges but found him dreary - not much to work with. Borges criticised Neruda as a rightwinger - Borges turned blind in more ways than one...could only see really really large print towards the twilight of his life. They are not books of sand which is a a impermeable surface of eternity and specificity - his inhabitance was a handful of XL letters.

The eternal mutations of joy. Inhabitance with the senses and their productive antiproductive and unproductive submodes - is affirmed as yes. Infinity is questionable in quants? but the soup du jours are everyday. But have the fish of the day on Wednesday or Thursday. Chilean portsides - the seafood is exquisite. As well as the omni food of Peru. yeah. native herbal curative teas of South America. Yes that's down home. Peyote well, that's there and in the eyes of splendid visionaries who own the world. The master of the world...as a street acquaintance told me of his shamanic beliefs. That is romantic - that is a little nerdy of the hippy hipster chomskian. He was cool sort of, the sweet Aussie nerd proselytizing buddhism and shamanism was Howl sung to the melody of El Condor paso otra vez - the condor flew past his in his irises.

Moving house anxiety. Domestic anxiety of living on my own. Suffering anxiety for hours, but bergsonian hours that fit in my small change jeans pocket. My hands, knees, enviro no fluid cleaning products. Own the dirt. Something is missing. A crackling living domesticity - fragrance of orchids. My own cooking does things to my friends - indirectly sometimes hehehe the comics taunts the "walk of shame" walker. Well, I don't have professional bowels, lucky I don't do that for income.  Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes gold plated Suri's first number two, and put it up for auction on e-bay. It would have made fiscal paper for the vaults and home kitty

I should get a pet - it is a safeguard.

cute - with table manners

This will be no way as great as Pablo Neruda's houses, his dinner tables and bars, shoe and butterfly collections. In the manner of the alterlatino academic discussing the world of the gothic forest (readings of European sensibility) - I dunno - level of philosophy?

The french are very interested in houses - what's your house like? Their philosophy is aristocratic, examines structures and it's technics - genealogical and dynastic. The House of Namey, and they flee with ethnography, refuge in anthropology and otherness, alterity, they like you and your house, but they wear no pants in the morning. Nomadology is the footsteps of this dynasty in fruitful activities away from the Palace. Historical studies in Nomad culture document that in medieval city centres of the middle east, political power sharing arrangements - familial based - were practiced - one family ruled for a year, and the other five made an existence in their wanderings.

This was a codified practice of distribution of political power. Nomads explores, wandered, met, but they have a lineage and are waiting for succession. Deleuze and Guattari are orphan dauphins. Nomadology as Deleuze and Guattari, read through postcolonialism, is are footsteps to ascendancy whose traces are transient as sand,  stopping at oases, with Xanadu as mirage, shimmering in a delusional distance, of escaped foreign legion soldier Beau Geste - who aint no-one's cop. the uniform of discourse is but surface.

To be kind to phenomoneologist which I don't know anything about really. Phenomenologies should acknowledge from Bourdieu, mutations, the mutation of perception and sense and the inhabitances of these, as mobile phenomenological inhabited mutations.

The English, see-sawing, happy in misery, melancholic with transience of niceness, and that, in pose, that niceness can never return? Talk about the weather, in a strange way, global warming is bringing out an English beam, but civil order and propriety till then. A basis of inclusion to sensibility and exclusion to ignorance of this propriety. Cliched, the rich mixed cultural and political points of London, it is nicey and dicey.

I cue orderly when I am the only person waiting in the line, don't you?

That old cliche is old duffle hat, nostalgia is power though I sense. The pining for the sun never setting is reborn in Little Britain, The Office, and Come Fly with Me. Nostalgia - greek for homesickness - Nostalgia for empire, yes hit that again, it's a feelgood - Come Fly with Me. Yes lunatic. I wonder what non-english listeners think when the comedic volume is turned to zero. Not so funny... but have your day in the sun. I hear you get more nowadays :)

The geneology of Germans, the Aryan pure transplanted in Noveau Germanias in South America. As well as Nazi fugitives. They are the comical scapegoats of Chilean humour. The irony is not lost on the Chileans. Chilean folklore has a secret which I am bound by death not to tell. Truly bastard lands and the Aryan immigrants want purity, noble Aleman? The Nazi fugitive wants sanctuary?

One silly old chilean dad joke - Mr Otto walks up limping terribly wincing in pain. Mr Fritz asks urgently "what's wrong Mr Otto? You look sick!" - "my shoes are 3 sized to small Mr Otto!"

I guess the next alter-chilean story from me is "La Herida Justo y su Canya Mala".

Neruda's house shoes - size 30 men, the biggest he could get.
The courier from the factory apologised and said they were both left footed/
He laughed and said "it's fitting"
