antonin artaud & renée jeanne falconetti in »the passion of joan of arc« by carl theodor dreyer, 1928. (szene taken from godard’s »vicre sa vie«)
+
the silent movie _ artaud regarded cinema as kind of congenial to »the theatre of cruelty«. in his eyes moving picture lost this potential with the beginning of sound film. (generally sound movies caused a lot of protest when they came up)
+
instead of »silent…« it’s »mute movies« in german.

fever ray = when i grow up
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4F-CpE73o2M
when i grow up i won’t believe anybody who tells me »we’re going to the zoo tomorrow!«. cause when it’s tomorrow we wouldn’t go to the zoo, but instead i would send stupid sms which are far under my level. concerning zoos and people i’m still five years old . (people changed in the last 27 years. now they don’t even answer about my zoo asking. they just dissapear.)

and why is there no fever ray concert this summer?

I am here, right here Where god puts none asunder And you, in black dress and black shoe You do invite me under Go on, go there You can see me aging Stars turn, balls burn Coming kids are raging
Death to everyone is gonna come And it makes hosing much more fun Death to everyone is gonna come And it makes hosing much more fun La la la …
Every terrible thing is a relief Even months on end buried in grief Are easy light times which have to end With the coming of your death friend
Death to everyone is gonna come And it makes hosing much more fun Death to everyone is gonna come And it makes hosing much more fun
La la la …
So strap me on and raise me high Cause buddy I’m not afraid to die But life is long and it’s tremendous And we’re glad that you’re here with us
AND SINCE WE KNOW AN END WILL COME IT MAKES OUR LIVING FUN
Death to everyone is gonna come And it makes hosing much more fun Death to everyone is gonna come And it makes hosing much more fun
Death to me and death to you Tell me what else can we do die do Death to all and death to each Our own god-bottle s’within reach
Death to everyone is gonna come And it makes hosing much more fun

listing everything you can miss. what a wonderful job. 100,- E per hour at least. »vermissbar«. miss-erable. they never heard about it. not even in german? well…
(must be that some people grow this ability kind of late in life. for you have to be connected to a thing first to be able to miss it later – in it’s absence… i’m becoming better in it. yeih.)
+
this pillow is obviously missing a neonmarker.

»absence of nothingness« spooking around in your head as your cycling through the city. takes a while to realize you didn’t catch it from a poster on the streets. it just poped up out the blue – not to write »out of nothing«.

i miss san francisco. but it’s fine in the very second i remember: it’s still there. i can go there. worse is missing dead authors. you just can not shake hands any more. and no »hi, how are you, kenneth?«
+
»praise the hands of the air… « is all i remember of this certain poem by kenneth patchen. cant find it in the www and the book was from the library. like 90% of all my past books.
+
i still desperately WANT the trench patchen wears on this one pic.
+
sounds as if modest mouse knows it all:
people as places = people are the places that i wanted to go
It was not the intention
But we let it all go
Well it messed up the function
And sure fucked up the flow
I hardly have people that I needed to know
‘Cause you’re the people that I wanted to know
All this scrambling around
Hunting high and then low
Looking for the face love
Or somewhere to go
I hardly have places that I need to go
‘Cause you’re the places that I wanted to go
Yeah you’re the places that we wanted to go
Yeah you’re the places that we wanted to go
You’re the people that we wanted to know
Shouldn’t have to ask
You shouldn’t have to ask
‘Cause we are your real place
