To Karen, Hants, 50s, willing to relocate ....

You are starving me. For your information, you are starving me as I type. I cannot surround myself any longer. Everybody has their opinion, some people disagree on certain subjects, but you are starving me, utterly. It's hard to tell what's what, due to the nature of not knowing more about it. I am now widely dangerous; I am now especialising. I don't know anything about what you are doing to me. I am questioning death because proper precautions were not taken. My style is far from intimate. I won't get involved because I realise too much.

Blocking you from now. Delete bitch.

els.where.iii

Hello again *, This is all good stuff; and I can clearly see you mapping the terrain you are seeking to highlight. Yes - to the periphery, the boundary, the edge of things. That, perhaps - in one sense, at least - is where one is likely to stumble upon a concentration of 'noise'. Fuzzy thoughts are needed; a certain blurring of the vision; squinting of the eye; some method by which elements of classical logic can be used to illuminate quantum logic, if you will. I'm minded here of Borges - for his admix of supposed truth with supposed fiction, his disrespect for categories and categorical thinking. He, for me, was the first effective poststructuralist. From his node flows, say, Derrida, Lyotard, Foucault. And yes, postmodernism is flagged here. But instead of flocking to that, I say flock to Borges. Best wishes, *

Robert Rauschenberg dies, at 82


He joins R B Kitaj, Derek Bailey ... endless luminaries of late. That late-Modernist generation dropping like flies.

els.where.ii

Hello again *. Glad the response helped; though it's a complex debate, as I previously said, and there are many issues within it, therefore. One has to start somewhere, though - so I think, and I originally hoped, that my analogy of figuration / narrative might function as one method of opening up a central structure of one possible debate on this subject, as I see it. I'm no real close-reader of the noise-artists you cite, sorry; so any comment I might offer would be general. There is, though, a certain 'listener transcendence' possible I think with exposure to pure noise - as opposed to, say, limited passages of same within, say, a rock structure: ie. King Crimson, The Fall. The danger here, in my view, is that that can tend toward escapism, zoning out; when, to my mind, the object is to zone in. There are different kinds of noise, of course - all giving off differing conceptual attitudes, allusions etc. Harmonic distortion, for example, can offer alternative forms of supposed beauty - insofar as one can eventually hear pleasing tonal qualities, melody and so forth; as one can see faces etc. in an abstract painting. This is an effect of the logicality of the brain, of course; as it makes sense of what might be intended non-sensically. Thus, that initial avant-gardist intention is rationalised, ratified, nullified, rendered aesthetic only. I called this decoration in my previous response; and, for me, that has a negative connotation. That is why, for me personally, there has to be some kind of connection to - in effect - language, the so-called 'real world'; this to say, there must be some kind of meaningful attempt to offer elements of understandable communication. In that way, one can offer a message which might convey useful ideas about the world, rather than offering an escape from same. An artistic commitment to the latter seems to be overtly recreational, to my mind; and that is the last thing I see art as. Best wishes, *

els.wher.

Hello *

Thank you for your message. To offer a short, perhaps pithy, response to begin ... For me, 'pure' noise tends too far toward abstraction, and thus decoration. To continue the analogy, I think noise per se functions best if meaningful degrees of figuration are retained. In other words, references to some kind of narrative content are needed if noise is not to lapse into banal aesthetics. The shock of pure noise relies upon its difference in a certain context - that is, its out-of-contextness, say as a passage in a pop tune. Used thus, expectations are confounded and a kind of Modernist point is made; insofar as formal qualities are changed, challenged, hybridised. There is here, a dialectic at work. The problem for this is that repeated shock ceases to shock; and thus noise - lacking other opportunities to cause narrative to come into being, lacking other means to 'say', that is - instead of maintaining iconoclasm becomes a form of conservatism. In my view, this is because its political power is too dependent upon that initial shock, and once such shocks are themselves normalised they become merely quaint, and thus easily ratified.

Best wishes,

*

I am taking you into account, as it were, both in order to take you and in order to account for you. I am supposing that, in all this taking and accounting, I am, at the same time, taking account of you. This is surely to arrive at, what one might term, meaning. Meaning, in turn, is, at the same time, accountable and taken - that is to say, it is both burdened and ratified. Indeed, it is on account of its takenness that meaning is itself, that it is able to be itself.

I'd love you to use that silence to present something orchestral. What you did was great. Can I suggest some chordal themes? If I sent you information like that - ie. E9th(aug4th) to Cmaj6th, B11 to A9 - could you use it? In other words, do you work like that? I could break the chords down into notes - as my presentations are guitaristic perhaps.

The timing is fine - offered as a slice of sound for your alterations & additions, giving you opportunity to extend over the effective silence; if you see what I mean. The eventual pieces will be 9'11 each, rigid; thus making the inference toward the event itself, but without getting didactic, documentorial. For me, the titles do the same thing... the notion of a devolving god ... against ... the symbol of US spirituality ... the dollar, with its eye in the triangle, and those connections to Freemasonary. Two cults. Two towers. Two pieces. Two collaborants ... you and I.

Yes, physicalisation might be mere metaphor, an oxymoron perhaps. Unconsciousness has it representations everywhere - as we are motivated from that place in ways barely understood. But overt presentations of 'this is about the unconscious' usually fail. Better, I'd say, to accept the weirdness of consciousness per se.

item #0661

Yes, absolutely ... and when one injects, say, surrealism or humour into the equation ... things get stranger still. But, by the by - almost in a Hegelian dialectical way - surreality's intentioned antithesis itself becomes thesis. I have this notion of a moral surrealism - one that does not seek to tell kinds of lies; a surrealism which reveals truths about reality, accepting that it is part of reality, rather than pretending it is other than reality. The best humour does this - taking reality temporarily out of kilter, but returning to reality itself something stronger.

item #0660

The Ryder story is nice! (I never liked the Mondays. But the band I was in at the time ... several of those were fans. So I'm familiar with them.) Intentions/intentionality ... interesting stuff, so mysterious. Hard enough attempting to work out the intent of others, when we may not even be so sure of our own motivations. Yet, analyses of most anything turn upon the supposed usefulness and appropriateness of such things. I'm sure you're familiar with the concept of 'The Intentionalist Fallacy'. The way most inquiry into art is conducted relies upon attempting to locate intentions, put through a pop admix of Freud & Existentialism, sometimes economics/materialism - offered as a system by which to judge things. Ryder just didn't play the game the interviewer wanted him to; we might think he was playing his own game; we might think he was intentionally being iconoclastic, his own man. But it may well be simply that Ryder was too drugged-up. An essay I like is 'Art History, Art Criticism and Explanation', Michael Baldwin et al, in (ed.) Francis Frascina, Pollock and After: The Critical Debate, pp. 191-216. Baldwin et al function as the art-group, Art & Language - who, under different line-ups of personnel, has contributed to Conceptual Art from the earliest times. Charles Harrison is amongst the group. He's a lecturer at The Open University. Great writer. The essay itself deals with your 'problem' in terms of problems associated with anthropology, but which have general application, and specific application when one is given the tasks of explaining works of art. I'd say works of art are only utterances; so the same is true of any utterance, any communicative act. How it lands in our brain from the brain of another is, of course, the question. Anthropology has various techniques for inquiry; but these fall into either (a) going native or (b) remaining outside, looking in. The essay deals with the so-called 'Trobriand Island Problem'. Roughly speaking, this is the problem of an inquirer joining the group to be researched - going native. This impacts upon such things as eyewitness-accounts, first-hand experience. Massive problems with the veracity of both, as I'm sure you know. Still, such primary knowledge reigns supreme in our society. In a sense, Ryder was being asked for his primary knowledge about himself. He might, though, be the last to know! The other thing is his silence was no doubt used by those wanting to paint him as a radical. The truth, though, might be very different. The essay deals with this in a revealing way.

I prefer canopies of exception. For me, there is nothing overtly mature. My few applications - invisible though they are to you - model intimacy within archives of introspection. If I thumb further, I thumb invasively. (Her hands, for instance.) I shelve no restraint. Meanwhile, you flap your tongue to no conclusion, no endowment. You believe this encourages me. It does not. I prefer providence, and its lack of interest in ideology, and I favour time, and its army of subsequences. You, in contrast, are always open to new ideas. Why? Firm understanding is not so versatile, believe me.

I am characterised by my exceptions, I think, and I fear adulteration in order to remain that way. Most things are a matter of administration.
