Diegersi tou kafe: Avoiding death and thus becoming political, they were reading magazines in search of their names, since no restaurant was to offer itself to them, and finding not their counterparts, they saw parts of their multitasking personas, dressed under the 'C' word -adjective and locale- planning their Wild West holidays, in the absence of The New Yorker, outlining virtual kebab houses' strategies and habitats.

Extract from what was going to be "Estates General of the Quotation Market"

"(...) Quotation marks generally function as small clothespins meant to keep at a distance, without really touching them, clothes which, whether dirty or still wet, won't be freed from their clothespins and really touched until they are properly clean and dry. In this case, the quotation marks around "theory" far from keeping an impure concept at a distance, convey a distrust towards a concept which is pure from any contamination and from an absolutely reappropriable proper sense: the proper sense of the word "theory" and "theory" as determined by the telos of proper sence which would elude quotability or, more generally, general iterability (...)"

Under the Volcano

In the past years you have been putting a lot of emphasis on pedagogy.

Yes, it's the core of our new political praxis. We even have a summer school in Oaxaca...

"...the zones [of silence] ... have a strong cultural production but do not host biennales, triennials or mega art fairs. In the zones of silence there exists an acute sense of isolation among artists and organisations, accompanied by a frustrating lack of communication with the region's multiple cultural scenes. This alienation from each other not only helps to maintain the negative dependency from the Western mirror to validate our own productions but also takes away the possibility of creating necessary networks of collaboration. I envisage stimulating new cartographies as a possible tool for the empowerment of creative communities outside of the established maps.

It is due to our internalised colonialism that the only opportunities to create our own cartographies ... are replaced by the emulation of mainstream models...."

''Η Εκκλησία θα κάνει κάποιες επενδύσεις και στις δύο Τράπεζες, ούτως ώστε να υποβοηθήσει να μην αλωθούν από ξένους, οποιοιδήποτε και αν είναι αυτοί οι ξένοι'', ανέφερε ο Χρυσόστομος Β' απαντώντας σε ερώτηση ύστερα από συνάντησή του με τον Πρόεδρο του ΔΗΣΥ Νίκο Αναστασιάδη.

Ο προκαθήμενος της κυπριακής Εκκλησίας κάλεσε όλους, ενόσω υπάρχει το εθνικό πρόβλημα, να αφήσουν απρόσκοπτα τις τράπεζες να χειρίζονται τα οικονομικά θέματα του τόπου. Το τραπεζικό σύστημα στην Κύπρο είναι άριστο όπως είπε, και πρόσθεσε ότι "όταν με το καλό λυθεί το εθνικό θέμα, μέσα στα πλαίσια της παγκοσμιοποίησης, σίγουρα θα έλθουν μεγαθήρια εδώ και θα συγχωνευθούν και οι δικές μας τράπεζες, αλλά πιστεύω ότι τώρα πρέπει να μείνουν ανενόχλητες".

Radio Mix without antennas

Dear Ombiouxoi kai loipei (tzi' es' edera)
Along side our blogs, vlogs, glompous, lellous kai veggous, audiovisual resources and hyperlingual kebabs, another of those "just visit for a while end up spending whole nights" website has come to my hands and made itself andy handy in the absence of the conventional signal receivers, regardless to having the cables, the skys and the kosiaris we lack the essentials - that being the monitors, the radios, and the cooking pans. Thus - following the wise advice of my Mathaios lunch companion Aris, well known for gadget speculations - and as the aftermath of insomnia, I hereby introduce you and you to it:
Pandora (to much greater demand following the Zorpa / Zoro fiasco / fresco). Please do not hesitate (or as the direct translation in Malev aircrafts has phrased it "Niwste aftopepithisi na epikoinwnisete me tis aerosinodous..") to simply add an entry (that being a singer / song / genre) and Pandora will open up creating a radio station following the given parameters.

Litterae nihil sanantes

Poetry used to wake us up. Ezra Pound and Nikos Karouzos. The loud sun and the warmth of cracked radios and old tapes. No vowels. Helicopters blasting out weather reports. The window always half open, an urban post-it note of that other cerebrality, the feet. The re-creations of abstracted grids and enclosed cities after breakfast. Nothing to do with communality, nor sociability. These mornings were the proud equals of nights balancing at the edge of barstools, and the smile of last drops, the smile of last drops, the smile of last drops. An eye to an eye, hands akimbo, apart from the index and middle finger, caressing the asphalt, the ink-stained marbles with our elbows, our scapulae. The light here is not, and we find ourselves praying in front of fixtures and the momentary . The overcast generalisation of uniformity, of the others -note the plural- has substituted excess for overdraft. Decadence for weekends.



A/gain you say?

All I want for Christmas

is you...

with your independent suspension system, your extra shock absorbers, your hand powered window wipers, your removable seats, and your canvas roof...

you and me, me and you.

Mood Indigo

There, there is the view from the table where we all sat, all four of us - but just you and me were drinking, drinking, drinking. There the table of June, with yoy, once, and shrimps, and the grilled squid. And there is that painting, the painting which no photograph would ever do justice, and thus not my photographs, but its own photographic reflection in the mirrors. Under it, my table of that September, the moment everything started. It could have been decdes ago, buat it's not. Not yet. And thus nostalgia hasn't yet settled and wants to still be that which feeds my everyday, it hasn't taken the back seat on this horrid ride, only to rush forward at times, at times not unlike this.The disctionaries have abandoned us, falling off the side of small tables, of filled tables, of alcoholic tables. There is that other table, there, the beer-table, in an ouzeri. And the usual table. There is the door, the pavement of the memories lived twice, always lived twice.

My fingers are oily again, the night has yet to come, and the breeze, the breeze and the smog interupts the ouzo, the cigarettes and the kiss.

Giving Up

How easy would it have been to blame the weather, the odour of my knitwear, the after-taste of nights that have only recently gone by. In a sudden, furious attack to all that has been stored, moments before the splendid moonlight. To lift my right index finger towrards a materiality that I have endorsed, to poke what will only be mine. How easy would it have benn to turn my ear away from the breath that haunts me, and has sustained me up to now, and fall pray -'hug!'- the meaningless cries of figures and numerals cubed.

Συγκεκριμένα, η ομιλία του Προέδρου της Ε.Φ.Ε.Ν. Ηλία Σπύρου ήταν καυστική και αποτελεσματικά μετάδωσε το μήνυμα της οργάνωσης πως ο αγών έχει πάρει σάρκα και οστά.

And yet again what remains the same is the inability to describe, to spell out the situation. How to pronounce the reverse theatrical mimesis of the state, the appropriation from one form of vilolence of all forms of violence and its representations, the elusive resurgent, the performativity of the repetition and the repetition of the act? One turns again to translation:"Ο ισχυρισμός οτι οι σκοποί της αστυνομικής εξουσίας ταυτίζονται παγίως ή απλώς και μόνο συνδέονται μ' αυτούς του ευρύτερου δικαίου, είναι απολύτως αναληθής. Πολύ περισσότερο που το 'δίκαιο' της αστυνομίας στην πραγματικότητα χαρακτηρίζει το σημείο εκείνο όπου το κράτος, είτε λόγω αδυναμίας, είτε λόγω των εμμενών συσχετισμών στο εσωτερικό κάθε έννομης τάξης, δεν μπορεί πλέον, μέσω αυτής της έννομης τάξης, να κατοχυρώσει τους εμπειρικούς του σκοπούς που επιθυμεί με κάθε τίμημα να επιτύχει. Ω; εκ τούτου, η αστυνομία επεμβαίνει σε πολυάριθμες περιπτώσεις 'χάριν ασφαλείας' όπου δεν υφισταταί σαφής νομική κατάσταση, όταν -χβρίς την παραμικρή σχέση με έννομους σκοπούς- συνοδεύει τον πολίτη ως επονείδιστο βάρος μιας ζωής ρυθμιζόμενης απο διατάξεις, ή, ακόμα χειρότερα, τον παρακολουθεί. Σε αντίθεση με το δίκαιο, το οποίο αναγνωρίζει στην καθορισμένη απο τον τόπο και το χρόνο 'απόφαση' μια μεταφυσική κατηγορία, επιτρέπωνυας έτσι την κριτική, η εξέταση του θεσμού της αστυνομίας δεν καταλήγει σε τίποτα το ουσιαστικό. Η εξουσία της είναι άμορφη, όπως η πουθενά απτή, αλλά ωστόσο διάχυτη, φασματική παρουσία της στη ζωή όλων των πολιτισμένων κρατών. Και ενώ η αστυνομία μπορεί μεμονωμένα να μοίαζει παντού η ίδια, δεν πρέπει να παραγνωρίζεται οτι το πνεύμα της είναι λιγότερο καταστρεπτικό όταν εκπροσωπεί, στην απόλυτη μοναρχία, την εξουσία του άρχοντα (ο οποίος κατέχει και την νομοθετική και την εκτελεστική εξουσία), παρά στις δημοκρατίες που η ύπαρξη της, καθώς δεν προκύπτει από καμμία τέτοια σχέση, μαρτυρά το μέγιστο εκφυλισμό βίας που μπορεί να συλλάβει κανείς."
Walter Benjamin, Για μια Κριτική της Βίας, μτφ. Λεωνίδας Μαρσίανος, Ελευθεριακή Κουλτούρα, 2002

The triumph is that almost 12 hours afterwards I do carry the taste around, as if it has comfortably stored itself somewhere between my tongue's tastebuds per se and my somatocensory cortex. From the Canapes and the Amuse-Bouche and the most joyful maitr d' in the whole world to the cheese cart at the end, inclusive of storage tips and extremely thin crispy toasted bread with asortments, from the openig bottle of champagne - a Deutz- upstairs at the bar to the old fashion, old world foie-gras with french beans and truffle shavings, to the wine and the way the wine was treated - with respect (3 people would test the bottle some times so as to be absolutely sure - and when they were not they would, after a mini conference, excuse themselves, and bring another botle - service ah?!) yet not as something to be arrogant or irritatingly 'precious' and 'snobbish' about- to the massive team of attentive and talkative staff keeping pre-emptive track of 8 peoples idiosyncrasies plus the meals of the rest of the restaurant and the way Michel Roux Jr. made an understated yet investigative and reassuring walkabout [Perikli klase mou ta arhidia!!!], the orgasmic cry has to read as Partridge! Partridge! Partridge! Whole Pot Roasted Partridge cooked with Sauerkraut, sliced chorizo and bacon served with potatoes and carrots and refreshingly cleansing 'game chips' (opws ta akoueis).

Here we go, for real (the smoker knocks back)

Once upon a time, a group of Argentinian scientists had the idea of shooting Churchill to the ether from central London, that space beyond the sky being the only vacuum his cigars could carry on fuming. Now, Alexander Schoppmann found a way how to make money out of it.
For real!

Bye. Bye.
