Yes but I gotta point out that my actual collages were much better than anything I ever did with so called digital media.
_________________ with real collages, things rot and lose their colour, the glue comes undone,
as with real bodies,
i'd suspect or imagine that with so called digital collage
they won't 'age' in the same way
------------------------------------
I did a collage once that was 6 feet its still over at what's his name's house....
I wonder really if it
s any good
collage in general doesn't age well I mean in terms of content most of it could go in the garbage, no one
will remember any of it. Good Collage is rare.
and rare by definition is rare.

Add the names of those who died at a certain age :
Names that come to mind
Felix Guattari was dead at 62
Joyce was dead at 59 and all these years I thought he was dead at sixty something
and it turns out , in fact, he was not quite 59 'He would have been 59 years old Feb. 2." as he died January 13, 1941, .
I find this so shocking, Not even fifty-nine yet so heart breaking Not 59.
'He awoke at 2 a.m. on 13 January 1941, and asked for a nurse to call his wife and son,'
It rips me apart to read it.
Joyce is our father, he is, I believe our father, or like something very near to our father in 20th century letters. Near everyone who met him got that sense from him, and anyone who's read him deeply gets that sense of paternity, something strong and terribly responsible. (the sentiment is echoed in the last page of Wake )
I don't understand it. In the sense that whence it comes I do not fully understand, I had it early on reading him, even when I didn't understand what he was writing, in the Wake especially, I had the sense it was already inside of me... whence this? this knowing?
His devotion to his work,family and children was exceptional.
I think he is to 20th century Literature, at least to those who've read about him and his era, I believe he is something like Maurice Richard is to hockey, a very powerful father figure. And all the men, and the women too, who knew him had this sense from him. Joyce drew tears from grown men.
Joyce is all father. and there is so much laughter in his work, and also the regret and anguish there in the terrible calls which ring out in the last pages of the Wake, but it is momentary as it all begins again.
Joyce is the least bastard of Literature in the twentieth century which is also why so many writers from so many cultures have come to be drawn to him.
Joyce is at the opposite spectrum to Genet the bastard of twentieth century literature and by virtue of that he becomes the father to bastard people, to bastard children, and individuals. He becomes a Father too but from the other way around.
He too will reduce you to tears but the tears come I believe from a different place and I don't know the name of that at this moment.
Genet never knew anything about his father, not a thing. Nor does anyone else. He knew little of his mother but far more about her than his father.
Joyce on the other hand, knew everything about his Father and his family and likewise he knew all there was to know about his Mother.
Genet was the only bastard son of a mother who had to leave him to charity as she could not afford to keep him. She herself was to die at the age of 31.
Joyce came from a family of 10 3 brothers and 6 sisters.
On one of my uncle's and aunt's side I have 8 cousins none of whom I have seen since the early 80's of the last century.
Cousins O cousins where are you? are you content with your lives?
Each of us comes into this world not choosing where and how we will be born.
If literature means anything it is what we choose to make it.
Yes life and death and breath and breaking bones, and getting old, and cold. or mad, and crazy Lear like madness on the beach and only our true selves found in poetry, the poetry we write.
And life those we love and love dying and being born.
It happens every day doesn't it , people die before their time whatever their time was. my own father at 29. and so others thousands even at this moment are dying away as others are born. and some
writers live to be old
and some not.
pick out your own names. There are the mothers and fathers.

Alexander Cockburn
I quote the the first item of Cockburn's article
about the Clinton maniac machine
Ever since she realized back in early March that Obama was going to take the nomination Hillary Clinton’s long-term strategy has been to do her best to ensure McCain will win this November so she can become the Democratic nominee in 2012. But she had a short term strategy too and on Friday she deliberately made it explicit in a newspaper office in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. There she suggested that some is likely to step up to the plate and assassinate Barack Obama in the waning moments of the California primary, just as Bobby Kennedy was forty years go almost to the day. The wish is mother to the deed. If anything does happen to Obama in California Mrs Clinton should surely be indicted as a co-conspirator.
How to else construe her grotesque remarks in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, in the editorial offices of the Argus Leader newspaper. Here she told the editors, "My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don't understand it," she said, dismissing calls to drop out.
There is no other way to construe these sentences, not thrown over her shoulder on a campaign walk, but delivered in measured tones to the Argus-Leader editorial board, but to interpret them as Mrs Clinton’s more or less explicit statement that she is spending a million a day just to keep her hat in the ring because Obama might well get killed. Then, just like the scenario at the end of the Manchurian candidate, Hillary will straddle Obama’s bleeding body, make the speech of her life and become the assured nominee. In fact, right now she’s probably sitting down with some numbed vet and whispering coyly in her best Angela Lansbury mode to the Lawrence Harvey stand-in, “How about passing the time by playing a little solitaire?" I pass on whether Hillary reprises Angela Lansbury’s famous incestuous kiss on her son’s lips. Perhaps Sid Blumenthal is the stand-in, though I doubt he’s a very good shot.
To get added insight into what a truly nasty woman Hillary Clinton is, remember that her remarks on Friday came a couple of days after Edward Kennedy was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. Next thing you know, his fellow senator is saying that California might well be celebrating the fortieth anniversary of his borther’s murder by killing the candidate he has endorsed for the nomination.
Now Hillary Clinton is dutifully saying that she was misunderstood, that she had no intention, no thought, that she might be taking about SOMEONE KILLING OBAMA, SOMEONE SHOOTING THE BLACK MAN DEAD, JUST LIKE SOMEONE SHOT BOBBY KENNEDY DEAD IN CALIFORNIA, IN CALIFORNIA, DEAD, REALLY DEAD. Oh my heavens no, the thought never crossed my mind.
Recall too that as Jeffrey pointed out in his Wednesday piece here, Mrs Clinton and her mouthpieces have been steadily raising the volume on their verbal-lynching. In South Dakota Mrs Clinton lit the fuse
Hillary Clinton's candidacy has done feminism no favours

When the dust settles over the 2008 election, will Hillary Clinton have helped or hindered women's advance toward the US presidency?
Right now, Hillary is in Godzilla mode, refusing to accept Barack Obama's looming nomination and threatening to tie the Democratic party in legal knots until the August convention and beyond.

that phrase the last one stood out for me and many others,however with the passing of time it's a cliche that needs to be examined and looked at from different angles what does it mean reside in the human breast?
at the most literal level it could only refer to a molecular level, a kind of vestry.
Did Blake know about the molecular level? was he aware of it? did he experience it? were his own visions gates into perception opening up the molecular field of sight and vision?

this is not about stravinsky its about shift and switch. id never listened or read these pple. before, and as I listened to this podcast at rabble ca
http://www.rabble.ca/rpn/files/rbl/rbl-2006-01-22.mp3
i ask myself daniel, whether its thei r voice, the actual physical voice, voices of this generation which is weak; not that they are not intelligent,but they seem to have no actualy presence in their vocies, and so their poems as such are weak; its as if these are people who have never yoweled, or yelled, or hollered, you know what I mean... i find it strange on the other hand the spoken word, folks,are often like that as well,. even the more interesting speakers, or voices, as one might say, are them that have voices,that have never yelled. its th e inbition machine, its not much that they are bad poets, whatever that is, that they, and us, me and you, the whole machine is ill, sick, feeble, weakened,run down, busted, broke, that no judgment left can give us no judgement, ; i mean one asks where is a machine ? that speaks with the heavy husk of reality,is that it?
im not sure ... ill continue this on one of my blogs recalltopoetryas now Ive provoked myself into thought if nothing else, oh and by the way, if anything t he problem then, daniel is that we need to think and not respond with heavy handed hasty snap decisions as of those of quick temper llike myself and you are prone, to , but more to ask oneself where does this begin and end, and what does it mean, what is it when we say something is a good or bad so called poem or work of art object,... you dig?
O i do gotta say one thinng abt stravinsky hes my man, but he too bought into the i had a bad childhoodbullshit but no matter his music was stronger than his ideas.. yes, that might be the clue, we need to discuss literature as a health... so yea, i'd like to think we discuss poetry as a health, and examine unexamined ideas, behind the idea of what's good and bad, and in this way, heal some of the rifts of what has become the big rip in poesy as in the rest of our civil body...
