p.s. Hey. Probably everyone who has been reading this blog for at least a year knows that when Halloween approaches, I get a little excited. Up above is the first of many pieces of evidence to come between now and Oct. 31st. Sorry or you’re welcome, depending. ** Armando, Hey, A. Thanks, hug back. Yeah, spam city, but I just added this anti-spam widget, so we’ll see if that weeds them out. Ha ha, lower than a shithole is pretty low. Did they trash something you love or something? Freedom to imagine that something less definable happened. Given that no one knows what happened, if it’s a choice between slotting AW’s disappearance into a known narrative or having the freedom to imagine a new one, I prefer the latter. Wow, I fear your kind and welcome question about ‘TMS’ would require a long answer and a lot of remembering/thinking that the p.s. form and my current jet lag will not allow. That’s to say the reasons are many and complicated. I’d love to be able to answer that question if I could, though. Maybe on a brighter day. Thank you for wondering for now. xx. ** Dóra Grőber, Hi! Welcome back to you too! Oh, cool, that you’ve started the thesis interviews! And that the latest one proved to be such a boon. Interesting about the zine’s connection to your anxiety. I sometimes think things that happen unevenly prove to give the most inspired results, for the obvious reason, I guess. I can only write poetry when I’m sad, so I kind of maybe relate. I’m very curious to see what the music video becomes. There’s a lot to wade and pick through. Zac started culling and seeking highlights last night. My lag is slightly better today, thank goodness. So today might actually amount to something. How was your morning-to-evening? ** New Juche, Hey, man! Good to see you! I figured you were very consumed by the long distance relocation. I hear you on the jet lag. Yes, one of the interesting and curious things to me about Augieras in my reading so far is exactly the discrepancy you mention, and which I quite like, but which maybe is part of why his work is hard to nail and, thus, overlooked at the moment? Going to read some Winkler. You’ve been a great discovery merchant for me. I was just looking for a copy of ‘Flowers for Jean Genet’ the other day, unsuccessfully so far. Well, make the best of your enforced time over there, and I know you will. Have a terrific day. ** Ferdinand, Hi. Yeah, and now that I seem to have maybe 2/3 of my brain working at least, I think I might be able to take in your story myself finally. On the band thing, first, I hope people aren’t thinking we did a video for some big, famous band, ‘cos we didn’t. More a cult/favorite kind of band. I’m just not sure of the protocol in terms of naming names. I don’t know when the song/single that the video is for will drop. I know the album that the single is on comes out in February. And maybe we should finish the video and make sure the record company doesn’t reject it first. That’s the thinking anyway. ** Steevee, Hi, Steve. A very, very interesting sounding film/script. The content and style combo is very intriguing and exists just on the farthest side of my imagination’s grip, which is always the best. I don’t know ‘Mr. Robot’, though. I’ll see if I can find some clips. How many pages are you expecting the script to be? Is it a short film or a feature or … ? Good to hear that about he Jarmusch/ Iggy doc. I will find a way to see it. I don’t know why it was received with such a shrug at Cannes. But then with Cannes, who ever knows. ** Tosh Berman, Hi, Tosh. Thanks for your enthusiasm for David’s post, and I agree about his memoir. ‘Within the Context of No Context’ is highly recommended as a place to start with Trow, if you feel like it. ** David Ehrenstein, Thank you so much again, David! And the memoir excerpt is just gorgeous! I’ll fix that spelling thing as soon as I finish up here. ** Nick Toti, Hi. Oh, okay, well, it’s accessible if one can schmooze the NYPL’s powers that be, at least. And surely it will get out more widely. Thanks, man. ** _Black_Acrylic, Hi, Ben. I really loved the un-boxing video. It had all the charms of the genre and extra grace. ** Jamie McMorrow, Hi, Jamie! Ah, the France move is in the realm of dreaming. Well, you’ve got to start somewhere, and dreams are the best place to start always. I can obviously vouch for France as a conducive place to live. I still really love it here. Yeah, the flight/time change was a bit brutal, but sleep was a little less obnoxious and stingy to me last night, so fingers crossed. In-flight movies, def. Let me see if I can remember the line-up going and coming. (Warning that I have thing for watching blockbusters on flights.) Uh, … ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’ (dreadful), ‘Batman vs. Superman’ (extremely dreadful), ‘Captain America: Civil War’ (minutely less dreadful), ‘Mockingjay 2’ (okay-ish), ‘Trumbo’ (meh), ‘Peggy Guggenheim: Art Addict’ (not bad), … I forget the others. Yeah, I saw the new ‘Star Wars’ movie on an earlier flight, and I thought, ‘Huh, that was fun’. I was just a little too young to see the Velvet Underground live, sadly. I do remember driving in a car with my family down Sunset Blvd. one day as a young teen and passing by this legendary LA psychedelic club/venue The Trip, and seeing on the club’s marquee the words ‘Andy Warhol Plastic Exploding Inevitable The Velvet Undergropund’ and realizing I wouldn’t get to see that, and going, ‘Arrggh!!!!’ How was bed? Did Tuesday turn out groovy? I’m going to try for grooviness on my end. ** H, Hi. Oh, the Prix Sade awards ceremony was the night I got back to Paris, so I stumbled over there completely exhausted and wrecked. I didn’t win the Prix Sade, just a kind of commendation thing having to do mostly with my trial by Google, so I don’t know what to feel about that. The air is cooling down here wonderfully, ahhhh! Thanks about the lag. Hopefully it’s halfway out the door now. Have a good day. ** Misanthrope, I’m glad that both of us are back. Mm, as much I hate this jet lag, I think I’ll hold on to my discreetness. Luckily the debate didn’t start here until 2 in the morning, so I was dead asleep. ** Bill, Thanks, Bill! Nice to be back in the saddle or driver’s seat or riding shotgun or whatever it is that I do here exactly. Wasn’t there kind of a funny recurrng bit on SNL years ago where Frankenstein and Dracula and the Wolfman sang Xmas carols together or something? ** Right. Done. Please start getting into the Halloween spirit today ‘cos otherwise this blog is going to be an intermittent drag for the next month, and that wouldn’t be good. See you tomorrow.
