The slippage and play of the signifiers is what it is all about. The text is always about nothing precisely because there is nothing outside the text for the text to be about. The absent center of every text is also a door leading to the thing outside the text that the text would be about if it worked for a living by describing something outside itself. The text is a bird with one wing that goes into a panic when it asks itself the unanswerable question of what the text is about. It panics as if hotly pursued by a dead police that no one would want to sleep with and flies around and around in tighter and tighter circles closing in on that center of itself which is also a door into the absolute not-text other which makes the text mean rather than just being a lazy bonobo playing with the basic equipment because it's there. The warm, gooey thing that happens when that one-winged bird of a text finally disappears up the neither end of its own sweet self is the thing that the text is never about but can sometimes do on a good day.

Re: AVATARS OF STORY / Cybermind (fwd)
I reviewed Twisty Little Passages. I found it interesting and informative. The author has not shown up at my front door to punch my nose yet so I guess Im just not and will never be in the same class as the late, great John Simon. Even his good reviews read as if the lucky recipient were being praised as one of the less fragrant of the cadavers in the morgue of contemporary culture. Until Simons death, there was a clause in every contract Liza Minnelli signed agreeing to appear live onstage anywhere explicitly stating that John Simon was not to be seated. It held up in court. The moral of the story is, I think, clear; never describe any popular actress in a public review as having the same large, expressionless brown eyes as one would expect to see staring blankly forth from the face of a recently deceased beagle even if its the plain truth. This kind of thing just makes one unpopular in direct proportion to the popularity of the actress. Many waitresses are frustrated actress wannabes and they all know the Visin trick. Even a true werewolf would like to drink his Pena Colada in peace at the end of a long day of chewing people up without worrying about this sort of thing. Read it all but only review the things you like. Its safer that way. No one ever killed a friendly turnip for not being deep enough. Few suspect a turnip of being as sinister as a German observation balloon that observes underground. --- Alan Sondheim [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think so; I asked for a review copy.

Re: SUBMOVIE 01
Thanks both! I wasn’t sure what to expect when I came up with the idea. I had predicted that maybe the black would almost completely subsume the white pixel and make the screen appear nearly static aside from a few momentary flashes when the eye happened to be looking in the same place as where a dot appeared. But it is far more visible than I had planned, and much more kinetic, as you say. m On Aug 14, 2006, at 7:09 PM, Peter Ciccariello wrote: Quite an amazingly kinetic field. -Peter Ciccariello On 8/14/06, Cecil Touchon [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:Very cool!
