I write like James Joyce
(WEBLOG)
I write Like James Joyce? That a hell of a complement.
**I don’t know if James Joyce wrote a lot of poetry; he best known for his novels, prose and plays.
In Ulysses and Finnegan Wake he employed the “Stream of Consciousness” Narrative. Stream of consciousness, replaced traditional periodic Meta-narrative with the continuous flow of perception -reflection- and reactions of that mimics a persons thought process.
In Ulysses moves back and forth through history and western cultures implementing this narrative. Finnegan’s Wake used the narrative style explore the symbolism and ambiguity of conscious, between dream and reality.
I call would it a ” heap of broken images” (from T.S. Elliot’s the Wasteland).

Walking with Ryan
WEBLOG Post.
I am a huge fan of the the Late Ryan Larkin’s Animation. 1943-2007. Ryan was a Canadian who was influential on modern multi media art. His 1968 academy award nominated “Walking” is is as fluid and colorful as life itsself. Its both Musical and urban.
Ryan:
Sadly, Ryan Larkin was drawn into cocaine and alcohol abuse. His creative life was short and he slipped into obscurity and homelessness.
Animator Chris Landreth created the following short based on recorded conversations with Ryan Larkin…
exposing an Artists worst fear… The fears of failure
Ryan:
Larkin died last year before making a comeback.
Bingo the clowno
Weblog entry:
bingo the clown-o thoughts
There will always be people who want to tell you
what you should do
what you should be
try to dissolve your individuality
louder and louder they will shout
and never tell you what they are about.
the wretched musical: Les Miserables
Weblog:
My all time favorite musical is Les miserables.
based on Victor Hugo’s: French Novel: Les Miserables… a terrific peace of literature.
The story is a complicated one. A central theme is that human action is not determined by the social class or by family they came from. instead they are able to act upon values of good, and are able to cast off false values.
The child of thieves can grow up to do virtues acts. Justice is not a black and white issue.
As far as the musical “les Mis” well i just love the music.
enjoy.
electricity of Beefheart
Weblog entry.
I am huge fan of Captain Beefheart and . Their music is certainly an acquired taste: A fusion delta blues, free jazz and free form. The band led by Don Van Vliet (a.k.a. Captain Beefheart) had a post modern dadaist whimsy and mischievous.
This a rare live performance of “Electricity” on youtube by Dampear
This live performance is a little rough. But after a couple listens, I like as much as the lp version
Don Van Vliet has left music behind to concentrate on his Art.
visit The Captain Beefheart Radar Station to see more of Van Vliet’s Art.
