I'm obsessed with capital.

I read it every week in the Davis campus library. 

"Ground control to Mao Tse-Tung"

"American-made, yuck" -my uncle 17 

"I DONT WANT NO CHINESE CHAIR, I WANT AN AMERICAN CHAIR" -some moron when i worked for the chair dept at staples office supply in high school

oh lets have socialism, relentlessly gentle, cigarettes for every1!!!! 

thanks to david d young for subbing my show last week and the next; david d young rulezzz

∆axial composition: poetics jottings

organization by multiple axes, thinking maximally

time/space/reference

time: music; rhythm, harmony/dissonance

space: speech not privileged over inscription; visa versa

reference: diving into the sign as well as considering materiality of sign; valences of meaning proliferated/restricted by time/space decisions

form taking Nothing for granted, including syntax, capitalization, received forms, etc; to do so is evasive, blind; and worse, harmful; supports complacency, hegemony; form Is politics

necessary organizational apparatus, delineation of fields; for instance, temporal, thematic; map on which to lay material; constructivist; move things around to enhance structural connections; sufficient structural integrity opens territories for play; city-states of language

encyclopedic array, entire world as raw material; destruction of confining expressive subject, tho can potentially draw from lyric energies; opening compositional field to individual unconscious and social collective forces; obscuring of ego by chance and method; consideration of autonomous construct / transmission; against strict divisions, fictional; promotion of integrated systems of thought (Curious reflection of logic of late capitalism)

conceptualizing the beams of constructs; blurring/foregrounding edges; sublimating, presence by absence; thinking about how one receives to make sense of things; the best work challenges/retrains ones perception

exemplary art- poetry of bruce andrews; music of anthony braxton

the world needs more insults and uselessness

more art

Robb Dogg and I go to an Anthony Braxton concert in a cozy church-like space. We wear white jumpsuits and surgical masks protesting something. Afterward on our bikes we and other protesters in the same garb are ambushed by counterprotesters with biological weapons. Ruby pulls me to safety in a building. My glasses are stained with my own blood. I only learn about all this later because we got so wasted beforehand. Amiri Baraka posts to a blog condemning the attacks which is widely circulated. It was the 9/11 of San Francisco.

My sister Chris and I are in New York, I want to visit Chris. I arrive slightly late to the airport. They give my seat away. I have to wait for the next plane out of Hawaii.

The Revolution of Everyday Life

Down quantity street

People who talk about revolution and class struggle without referring explicitly to everyday life, without understanding what is subversive about love and what is positive in the refusal of constraints, such people have a corpse in their mouth.

anarchy 

down with dumbed down art

"There's more innovation and more cultural acumen in any episode of Ren and Stimpy than in any of the books of our last trio of national poet laureates."

today i think i will play some shostakovich. thanks to the recommendation from lashelle, who calls in every week. i enjoy your calls and learn a lot from you

Unscrew the locks from the doors!

Unscrew the doors themselves from their jambs!

how to be free and say fuck you

free music subverts capitalism 

The art of the future will be the overthrow of situations, or nothing

We will wreck this world

Everyone must search for what he loves, for what attracts him

On the way to the discovery of what you loved, you would find everything you hated, everything that blocked the way to what you loved

Steal things and give them away for free

July 2: Odd dream last night

I am on a normal looking neighboorbood street except that all the houses have for pets vicious exotic animals like cheetahs and lions and the range of their chains extend into the middle of the street. DJ Brendan and I part ways saying see you at the show. DJ Brendan crashes his motorcycle as a lion tries to get him but is fortunately unhurt. I get away on my bike. I go to the KDVS station where I realize that I am missing class. The class is Cool as Folk and is taught by Michael Leahy. But then I see Michael Leahy in the DJ booth and am confused. Michael Leahy comes out to talk to me and says yes the class started today but DJ Haggis is substitute teaching for him right now

*

I also have recurring dreams in which I do a really bad radio show 

in fountain the quality of the porcelain matters less

Give known or pin ware.
Fancy teeth, gas strips.
Elbow elect, sour stout pore, pore caesar, pour state at.
