幼児は無目的である。何かを得ようとはしないし、気負いもない。力が抜けている。創造はそこから生まれる。つまりそれこそが幼児の遊戯なのである。

Link: Radio Hour: Gary Indiana by Los Angeles Review of Books
Laurie Winer: Nabokov says that when he started to write his autobiography that he remembered things that he had forgotten, that the doors opened. Did you find that when you wrote I Can Give You Anything But Love?
Gary Indiana: Yes, I mean things that I had completely forgotten about came back. And things that I remembered very clearly started to present themselves in a different aspect. You remember it that way but can that possibly be the way it happened? It’s tricky, memory is very tricky. I love how Nabakov killed off his mother in that memoir. Just in a parenthesis: “(picnic, lightning).”
Tom Lutz: [laughter] the greatest parenthesis ever, I think we can all agree.
GI: I hate talking about myself, I hate writing about myself, it’s embarrassing, it’s weird. But I did want to figure out, to the extent that I could, why are you wired the weird way that you are? Why am I this mess? This particular mess, I don’t mind being a mess but why am I this particular mess? How did I manage to get into this condition as a human being?

The phenomenology of reading is that in the heat of the moment, the interface disappears.
