everything on sale this time of year
“Okay,” he said, “everything 90 degrees.” And we became temporary helmsmen, the act of organising one’s knowledge and one’s life to be a 2nd Captain job. Here, the sea is misty, the sea is cold, the sea is snowing, but we aim for 90 degrees, give or take a few, 90 degrees today or tomorrow relative. I missed the pounding on ice, her roommate bouncing before the ice turned sweaty; it’s dangerous but not scary. No, not scary at all, love, we just go, we just go, through broken ice or slippery snow, because the thing is the thing, and let us share this thing that is not ours to keep or own. Six shirts, everything on sale this time of year, let’s get rid of them all or let them go slowly.

Who made this? asks the naive moment.
My first stir of thought has been to think of making.
The idea of making is the first and most human of ideas.
“To explain” is never anything more than to describe a way of making: it is merely to remake in thought.

BEFORE AND DURING AND AFTER: Three days’ thought on media culture and artificial life
…as responsible human beings, we forget (Ha, seduction!). Were we unable to, every horror and every pain experienced as the newly born would retain itself, excruciating, just as every moment of laughter and joy, but we would never recover. The mirrors of Lacan are as inevitably linked to artificial life as self and world. And forgetfulness is not so much saying no as being able to say yes again. Are you ready to rule the world?

“and what do you think?” asks the situationist to the audience. a collective holding of breath before the girl that looks like litty speaks. “and what is it that you were expecting from our educational institutions?” he is held responsible. but, “WE were talking about” …something else. we welcome you to this situation. but now she must feel stupid.
regard the distinction. a series of solos that collide on occasion, when it’s a butterfly—–he holds his fingers to his lips—–’amazing’, but otherwise, precisely unaware of the other.
and a series of presentations about the future, the aesthetics of work and collaboration go a long way. but she doesn’t want to talk about the fear of aging. not right now.
i was constantly in fear that it would be like this. two bodies curled in fear of the infinity of three dimensions turn, clockwise. they must have been over aware, acutely, but he did not like to use the word ‘execution’. a series of solos passing on occasion.
