Title - Phenomenology of the Real (upcoming talk at WVU BIOS conference)


The eye isn't like a camera. It scans, simultaneously receives and
constructs.

The eye tends towards interesting things, movement or anomaly.

Scanning creates the choices and the Pale.

Scanning creates the authentic and problematic.

Scanning is an active process in the world, constructing worlds.

Scanning implies bandwidth, implies negation: scan(x) and (x)(-x).

Let us think for a moment about the edge of scan, about the infinite real
or analog, about for example a theoretical motion capture device with a
complete description of forearm skin during the average step of the
average walk.

Clearly one needs an infinite number of sensors; clearly the data becomes
equivalent to the real with an ontological shift; clearly an infinite
amount of energy is necessary; clearly this is impossible.

Scan implies choice; I say, my raster is sufficient in this instance -
meaning, I can divide this object or even clearly and cleanly in such a
manner that nothing of importance is left out.

Now I, perturbed, scan the perturbed body, perturb software; what may be
for example flesh becomes file becomes image, and such an image that it is
suitable for your eyes only, for this species within the sign of eternity.

And I inject these images into the imaginary of both body and perception -
that is, within the perceiving and receptive body - a body internally
folded in a manner recalling Riemannian geometry - a body conceived as a
multiply-connected manifold of tensions and distortions.

This is the multiply-vibrating body, the body internally connected in such
a manner as can only be the result of external connectivity; otherwise, as
Kant might have it, the world may split apart.

Such a body ingests time.

It takes no time to ingest time; time disposes, indisposes.

Every line is after every other.

Imagine: An Access Grid moment: I send my body-image across the earth.
A shot is fired.
I am dead but read you reading me alive.
I will not die on the Access Grid.

A multiple-exposure photograph becomes a totalization, indecipherable; a
multiple-exposure scan becomes stitched, recuperable, archaeological.

I assert it is the body that is traveling on the Access Grid, it is the
body that speaks to another body in online gaming or MOOs, it is the body
that participates in a true, real economy, online and off, it is the sexed
body that is scented online and off: For one, therefore the other; for the
other, therefore the one.

Let us never forget that other economics of the feasible, of starvation-
extinction; there is there there. There are no scans there. There is
there.

There, is not present here. To understand its absence, one must understand
the absence of digital, absence of analog, absence of the figure-in-the-
landscape: perspective. There, is not even another question. There, is
future. the future of impresent. This does not travel the Access Grid;
this does not travel at all; in the future, we will not travel; in the
future, we will not learn.

i liked the work from lead pencil studio.
when i was a teenager my friends and i had a fort we built
inside a v-shaped pair of billboards on the side of a highway.
I call it "fort," but it was more like a hideout.

it stayed there for many years until some kid got up in there
and started taking pot-shots w/ a .22 at the cars on the highway
using it like a human hunting blind. I don't think anyone got hurt,
but the police tore out our fort.

Laurie Anderson was great last night.
2nd row in the orchestra pit!
Interesting discussion of her time spent as the 1st
and last artist in residence at Nasa.

she also made reference to the literary and biological grotesque
in several oblique ways. One was about a dream she had of a two-headed calf
saying hello to her in a dream, and another was a kind of almost ETA 
Hoffmanesque
tale of a tree climbing telephone man who didnt work for the telephone company.
this was all following on her circuitous route to 911 which went through the 
image
of a Turkey buzzard "calculating" the weight of her little dog..

Earlier that evening

http://www.pica.org/tba/tba06/detail.aspx?eventid=67

The show on Vietnamese birth defects and the innocent victims of our poisonings following our lovely war there made me 
cry and Kara nearly vomitted.

but then we got eroticized watching Marina Abramovic's Balkan sexything 
movies.. some of this based in real ritual.
http://www.pica.org/tba/tba06/detail.aspx?eventid=63
http://www.pica.org/tba/tba06/detail.aspx?eventid=45

Then we met a German performance art group (I forget their name!) and I had my Chakra fixed by Apollo/Ra and the 
Dionysius/Bike Messenger.

To thank them I read them a few lines I had had Kara transcribe on the way to 
the show that had been rolling around
in my head for two days. I also showed Apollo my 15th Century carnival badge I wear on my green 100% Hemp fibre Lenin 
cap

which depicts a fish faced man peeing into a butter churner while he churns it, 
and both he and the churner are riding
a giant fish like a surfboard. Here's the lines I pronounced upon the German 
Apollo/Dionysius:

Oh, the endless, ageless bliss which
speaks its labyrinthine name
through these shattered monsters!

Let it
laurel our Seizurina
of imperator air!

They both liked it and asked me who had written it. I told them my Ford truck 
had written it
in my mind as I drove to work one evening which seemed to make them chuckle. 
Dionysus
was smoking incense through a giant hookah.

We went and watched a Theo Angell film which for a while became my favorite art 
film ever.
So good! Like a cross between Jodorowsky and Beuys.. A very odd and good use of 
video compositing..
I would certainly like to have the knowledge to use whatever it was he used, 
Avid, etc..
The dialogue was presnted like poetry onscreen, like a comic strip as well..

http://www.pica.org/tba/tba06/detail.aspx?eventid=46

What's funny late last nigt I put on Barbarella,
and still just love it, when she salutes her president
and just says,

"Love.."

Love (Kara rolled her eyes..)

Love (whatever, I don't)

I'd certainly rather have flower power, than generations of
horribly deformed Iraqi's to look at..

Apollo was all painted gold
and had a baseball cap with the eye of Ra
and he was smoking a cigarette.
Maybe even Divinity has a few bad habits..

This is my Apollo. He's just a working joe.
He offerened me some bread and wine,
but I was already full on Tandoori chicken and saag
and a Kingfisher beer.

I'll say it again and make a little hyle itlure

"Love"

The last paragraph I read

2006-09-10 Thread Halvard Johnson
last night, on the eve of our anniversary (Lynda's and mine--our fifteenth, as near as we can recollect) and the beginning of another new year for me, my seventy-first, was found by chance in John Ashbery's Three Poems, written back when he was in his late thirties and seeming today something like a little prayer for all of us."We were ideally happy. we had reached that stage in our perennial evolution where holy thoughts no longer existand one can speak one's mind freely, and the night shotback an answering fragrance: too far to the stars, but itwas here in its intimacy that wraps you in permissiveness,leaving you free as it wanes to learn more about your specialthoughts or any ideas you might have. It is never too lateto mend. When one is in one's late thirties, ordinary things--like a pebble or a glass of water--take on an expressivesheen. One wants to know more about them, and one inturn lived by them. Young people might not envy thiskind of situation, perhaps rightly so, yet there is nowinterleaving the pages of suffering and indifference tosuffering a prismatic space that cannot be seen, merelyfelt through the mists of helpless acceptance of everythingelse projected in our miserable, dank span of days. Oneis aware of it as an open field of narrative possibilities.Not in the edifying sense of the tales of the past that weare still (however) chained to, but as stories that tell onlyof themselves, so that one realizes one's self has dwindledand now at last vanished in the diamond light ofspeculation. Collar up, you are lighter than air. The onlyslightly damaged bundle of receptive nerves is hummingagain, receiving the colorless emanation from outer spaceand dispatching dense, precisely worded messages. Thereis room to move around in it, which is all that matters.The pain that drained the blood from your cheeks whenyou were young and turned you into a whitened specterbefore your time is converted back into a source of energythat peoples this new world of perceived phenomena withwonder. You wish you could shake hands with yourlovers and enemies, forgive and love them, but they tooare occupied as you are, though they greet you withfriendly, half-distracted smiles and nods. The Hermithas passed on, slowly and haltingly, the light streamingfrom under his cloak, and in his place the Hanged Manpoints his toe at the stars, at ease at last in comfortablyassuming that age-old attitude of sacrifice; the goldcoins slither out of his pockets and fall to earth whichthey fertilize with many ideas, some harebrained, othersdaringly original. In the sky a note of fashionablemelancholy has begun to prevail: it is the quick-witteddevotion of Sagittarius, the healer, caustic but kind, sweeping away the cobwebs of intuitive realism thatstill lingered there in pockets of darkness. The Archertakes careful aim, his arrow flies to the nearest card,the Five of Cups: 'Trouble from a loved one. Troubleintroduced into the midst of an already realized state.Amorous dangers. Perils through a woman.' And alsorectitude, for the aim was just. From the tiny trickleof blood from the wounded card a green stain grows;some leaves shoot up and then tiny white odorlessflowers, the promise of what still remains to befulfilled. But of course since that was no shot in thedark it is an already realized state in its potential.The note is struck, the development of its resonancesready to snap into place. For the moment we knownothing more than this."--John Ashberyfr.

Let us find time for repentance…
Sorrow we need not borrow,
Each other’s joy we may employ,

Joe bragged bragged about owning a commercial dairy route: lady gets
pissed at your driving, you call her a crazy bitch, she calls the
number on the truck to complain, you say the "driver"'s right, she is
a crazy bitch.

Ecce Homo

Ecce Homo



Utterly unutterably scum squat meltdown
(to ratchet up, in the thrall of exacerbated dust,
the oblique fossil of a comet from the glass riverbed)

tickling singe trickling 
(fickle zipper in my cassock,
I shit in my britches, dead foliage of my femur,
rubber meat, superficial effigy -- my filthy cock exceeds me)

curd lung as far as a butt, or
daylight displaced in my throat
(lugubrious teats, organs of malice, testicles and entrails)

serrated foreskin rupturing a lush nipple's stamen codicil
(I lick my fatidic shadow, I sniff the tip of my dick, 
O one-eyed syllable, mutilated)

glazed wads of tantrums plunged into disembodied bubblegum
(I slobber over the torso of my name 
under the creaky shadow of the moon)

inverted, simulated hiatus, throatless tangent 
tenderizing my softer thirst
(it is palpably implacable, sterile loins of zero)

feral sinkhole, liminal vinyl, splattered axel, 
barefoot ducts, gouged-out pinhole cove
(I puke on the gutteral marrow 
in the voice of my ringworm,
cadaverous cockring convulsing)

onyx cul-de-sac, unsaid frothing, undone switchblade
(dustless wrinkles, indifferent crow's-feet squinting)

empty field of nothing but eyelashes
(the vigil festers, a wake over the corpse of the cat's-paw)

The body/works (fwd) - corrected URL apologies

2006-09-10 Thread Alan Sondheim

The body/works

These works characterize anomalous space whose worlding is internal, by
which I mean there are no external relations, only the body generating its
own skein, represented by markers situated at the nodes of motion capture
technology. The shuddering of the space is the shuddering of the body; the
emblems of the space constitute the space in its entirety - there is
nothing else; what you see as background is designed for visual pleasure
alone. Now you will notice that bodysphere is ragged; this is the result
of considerable compression, bodysphere being a production of quaggy, that
is, quaggy mapped onto a sphere which then moves/motivates as nodes are
distended, memories of a totality, 3-dimensional Jordan surface, or
perhaps given the break=throughs, multiply-connected toroi of which the
sphere is only the visual external remnant, already penetrated. Penetrated
by what? By the very nature of digital motion capture, which as in all
things digital, requires both raster and bandwidth, as well as tolerance -
here what are absent are the entrances and exits of body tubes, holes in
other words, as well as those details which, for us, create the semblance
of both sentience and physique. In these spaces, only crudely represented
in a 3-space mapping into 2-space, something new is being born: the world
as representation, not will, the hollowed world of virtual skeins which is
already our future anterior; we are what we will become; these are blown
images, imaginaries, as flat as the bytes from which they are visually
constituted; these are, literally, all that there is, eyes and ears, touch
and taste, scent and smell, within. Within, without, there is no symbolic,
no difference, no differance. The future is here, one's memory.
