    Arthur Jafa

    it's interesting stuff these everyday things like for example how black and white people dance differently, how the set of registers for emphatic expression are preset by whiteness and blackness. there was a lot that i thought hinted at the meaning melancholy contra sublimity in white and black...

    I went to see that exhibit at Louisiana, which had finally opened after covid postponements. There were two video pieces, Love is the message, the message is Death and The White Album. They were both good at what they did, which I thought was sort of tracking neural pathways of racial...

    Playing an instrument

    Yes I was. I was very into J Dilla and Madlib that sort of stuff. This was maybe 2007-2011. I first bought a record player for sampling. Plugged it into the mpc. Then I just added equipment I bought second hand. Had quite a little studio going until I started selling it off because I got into...

    Playing an instrument

    I used to be really into the art of scratching when I was a teenager. Bought mixers with special scratch faders, special cartridges. Spent hours and hours every day at the turbtables of my parents basement. Did exercises to make these controlled wrist vibrations. Was really good at one point.

    Have you got a big head?

    i've thought about this and often wondered what happens to that substance that is flattened, does it transfer to another part of the head like it's a dough being molded, or does it just not develop?

    Have you got a big head?

    It makes me feel better that people with big heads are also self-conscious about it. From my perspective, a nice big head would be all I need in order to be happy in life. A nice beautiful big skull and a cool jacket that would last a life time.

    Have you got a big head?

    I was standing behind someone in the check out queue the other day and I was astounded by his head. Not only the nice big size of it but also the shape which was very geometrical and had the back of the skull curving outwards in a very proper and worthy fashion. They don't make heads like that...

    Have you got a big head?

    I used to be self-conscious about being lanky but now that I've grown to normal proporttions the thing I'm most self-conscious about is having a small head on a relatively large body. It's not weirdly small so you would stop and look at it on the street or anything but if I point it out to you...

    Samuel Beckett

    ... which means that it's highly negotiatiable with what you bring to it as a reader. One of the times I picked it up I was depressed and dopamine depleted and the book seemed much much darker and the humor much more tragic. I couldn't believe it was the same book because my impression of its...

    Samuel Beckett

    right, that strong presence of 'something' in it, a sense of doom haunting seemingly unaware sentences. you can't really link it to anything specific and say 'here it is', it's in the whole thing, you jumble it together between odd impressions as you go along.

    Samuel Beckett

    I've read Murphy, Molloy and Godot. They were all good on pretty much the same terms, which Molloy hit the deepest and Godot with the most intensity. But that thing that they all did I haven't found in anything else. I zoned out through the big central dialogue scene in Murphy but otherwise...
