Mapas

Los primeros mapas fueron mapas estelares? Esta sección de la caverna de Lascaux, según algunos, mostraría un mapa estelar 

[worldhistoryfacts]

The oldest known map and/or landscape painting (original on top, reproduction on the bottom). This 9,000 year old work of art from Catal Huyuk, Turkey, depicts the settlement (one of humankind’s earliest) along with the eruption of a nearby volcano. Recently discovered evidence shows that the volcano did erupt around the time that the image was made.

No creo que este sea el mapa más antiguo, porque, según parece, los mapas más antiguos son mapas estelares (como el que hay en Lascaux). Es decir, primero hubo mapas estelares, luego mapas de ciudades y muchísimo después (casi como una anomalía) mapas del mundo.

[deleuzeandphilosophy]

For eternal return, affirmed in all its power, allows no installation of a foundation-ground. On the contrary, it swallows up or destroys every ground which would function as an instance responsible for the difference between the original and the derived, between things and simulacra. It makes us party to a universal ungrounding.

Avent00ras

Estos son dos ejemplares del segundo avance del libro que estoy escribiendo, Avent00ras.  Lo de los avances surgió por las ganas de hacer los libros, por los deseos de mostrarle un avance a algunos amigos de los que me encuentro físicamente lejos, así como para ir viendo el crecimiento y las variaciones de este proyecto.  Estos se fueron a Perú.

non-self poetry

“Martin: Charles Olson wrote in the sixties about the need for poetry to get rid of ‘the lyrical interference of the ego, of the subject and his soul”. Would this describe what you’re attempting to do? Snyder: Yes, I’m no interested in being a consistent speaking voice, speaking for my own sentiments and sensibilities. Martin: Because? Snyder: Because it’s not interesting. It’s like talking about yourself.  Martin: And what is interesting? Snyder: Talking about your nonself! When a bird flies across from one tree to another tree, you can be the bird flying across from one tree to another tree. You don’t have to think about the bird, how you feel about the bird. No difference between self and universe. So just shortcut that illusion” - “Nobody Home; Gary Snyder in conversation with Julia Martin”, pp. 43-44

“John Ranking, en un libro aparecido el año 1829, hizo a su vez intervenir a los tártaros o mongoles. Hacia 1380, Kublai Khan intentó la conquista del Japón, pero su flota fue dispersada por una tempestad, yendo a parar a las costas americanas, donde los náufragos fundaron el imperio del Perú” Paul Rivert, “Los orígenes del hombre americano”, p. 13.

De "Before Mickey: the animated film 1898-1928" (Donald Crafton)

"The important thing to note about these lightning-sketch films is that the spectator was never allowed to forget that he was observing a theatrical performance. The filmmaker (often represented by his hand) was the center of attention. Yet there were no straight recordings of a performance; each was altered by camera tricks to create a magical illusion. Significantly, the costume chosen by Merry, Méliès, and Blackton was formal evening wear -also the costume of the stage conjurer. The theatrical setting and the costumes are codes with one purpose: to promote the ilusion that the animator is a magician. His initial appearance beside his blank blackboard or sketch pad is the equivalent of the magician's opening his act by proving that his hat and sleeves are empty. We understand that a mundane situation is about to be transformed. When the artist's drawings spring to life, the magical nature of the event is all the more delectable because the original materials seemed so ordinary. Audiences knew that camera trickery was involved, but easily accepted the invitation to suspend disbelief and imagine a world in which an artist's drawings could become real" (pp. 55-57)
