This writing is not exempt. It remains like all writing an absurd and revolting effort to make an impression on a world that will remain as unmoved as it is avid. If I could turn you on, if I could drive you out of your wretched mind, if I could tell you, I would let you know.
R. D. Laing, The Politics of Experience, 1967
Jenny Holzer, It's Hard To Know...
“There exists, I grant you, a clinical depression, upon which certain remedies occasionally have an effect; but there exists another kind, a melancholy underlying our very outbursts of gaiety and accompanying us everywhere, without leaving us alone for a single moment. And there is nothing that can rid us of this lethal omnipresence: the self forever confronting itself.”
— Emil M. Cioran, from “The Lure of Disillusion” in: “Anathemas and Admirations” (1986), translated from the French by Richard Howard
“…goes to language, wounded by reality, seeking reality.”

the medium is the massage, 1967
“Any loss of identity prompts people to seek reassurance and rediscovery of themselves by testing, and even by violence. Today, the electric revolution, the wired planet, and the information environment involve everybody in everybody to the point of individual extinction.”
— Marshall McLuhan, “Letter to Clare Westcott (26 November 1975)”
“In television, images are projected at you. You are the screen. The images wrap around you. You are the vanishing point.”
— Marshall McLuhan, The Medium is the Massage (with Quentin Fiore)
the real issue is whether indeed there can be a true representation of anything, or whether any and all representations, because they are representations, are embedded first in the language and then in the culture, institutions, and political ambience of the representer.
E. W. Said, Orientalism
eight p.m. by Matthew Dickman
“If anyone comes to the gates of poetry and expects to become an adequate poet by acquiring expert knowledge of the subject without the Muses’ madness, he will fail, and his self-controlled verses will be eclipsed by the poetry of men who have been driven out of their minds.”
— Plato, Phaedrus 245a. (via cmbodayle)
