APPROACHING SYSTEMS
We are now in transition from an object-oriented to a systems-oriented culture. Here change emanates, not from things, but from the way things are done. Jack Burnham, Systems Esthetics (1968). Artists should create new grammars of action, not simply new grammars of visuality. They should create alternative algorithms. They should reinvent the architectural flow of play and the game’s position in the world, not just its maps. Alexander R. Galloway, Gaming: Essays On Algorithmic Culture (2006).

Approaching the Abyss
What is the Abyss? Unfortunately, as is completely obvious I have not had time for another post for months! My preaching and my teaching schedule have just made it impossible to post. That being said, my schedule, hopefully, will get even busier. I've applied to do a research PhD at St. John's University. If my abstract is accepted, I'll be doing a research PhD there. Please pray that it is! 8221; Why is it that I keep putting pressure on myself not to make any mistake? I think I know why. My last wo...

Untitled Document
Vt Governor Schumlin speaks on the drug epidemic in the state, the current heroin capital of America. We are confronting these problems from their roots up, and our personal experiences, conversations, and research have helped us arrive at better antidotes from prevention and rehabilitation. The key question to be answered is, what happens after that? We click our heels and praise corporate pharma for quelling our ills? Do these factors influence the integrity of the industry?

窮劇場 approaching theatre
12304;資本都市箝制下的靈與肉】評《七種靜默：懶惰》. 撰文：謝鎮逸（臺南藝術大學藝術史學系）. 窮劇場的《七種靜默》計劃改編自作家黃碧雲的小說《七宗罪》，繼《忿怒》、《饕餮》以後，第三宗犯下的罪行《懶惰》相隔四年之後再次重演。在劇中的資本城市底下所展示的勤奮、上進、墮落、糜爛等面貌，都濃縮於三位要角的身上：一名靠積極工作逃避病妻的高階中年經理、一名被職場與對愛的憧憬所耗盡自我的年輕秘書可喜，和一名期盼付出獲得回報卻最終走向毀滅的青年工讀生。在都市叢林中企圖生存的仨人，彷彿透過自己的性靈與肉體，為觀眾演繹了一段有關身體技術的社會圖景。 倘若從柏拉圖所提出的靈肉二元論來為劇中三個角色試析，暫且能將角色的慾望和對社會層級、情愛的認知取向命名「靈魂」，而行進中的「身體」，卻導致了惡和惰性。在二元論傳統中，身體基本上就處在一種被靈魂宰制的卑賤。當然，我們知道身體與靈魂的複雜性交織絕非二元對立如此單純。 既然靈魂都不免俗地夾雜入世的渴望，那身體想當然是更加社會性的，尤其當資本社會對身體進行了嚴格的管制和編碼。沉著內斂、不動聲色，制式化地工作...三具身體所遭受到的懲罰，正是資本社會對主體意識的毒...

Approaching the Crest
Sunday, March 29, 2015. Daffodils and Other Signs of Spring. I've only managed three posts in the last year, and the blog is essentially dead. But since it started as a way for me to track some things going on in the yard - a public journal of sorts - and one thing I've consistently tracked is daffodils (first bloom date and color as well as total bloom count), I'm back. I might as well rename this "The Daffodil Journal". Here's this year's winner:. 2015: white ( 27 Mar). See you again in about six weeks...

Searching for Sunshine | My Adventures in Recovery
My Adventures in Recovery. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. Life in No Man’s Land. April 21, 2012. Life in No-Man’s Land. I have a secret. I dare you to guess it. To judge me. Am I preoccupied with vanity, ruthless in my pursuit of the ideal body size? Am I purposely defiant, an attention seeker and an egomaniac? Do I dress in black, don chains and piercings? Am I always crying, always complaining, always overtly sad? My pastimes include watching. The question was, What could we do?
