Absurdity, Allegory, And China -- Promising Blog
2008-02-02 14:13:00 Just came across for the first time, a most interesting China blog. It is called Absurdity, Allegory, and China, and it is hard to describe. I know, however, that I like it and that it is quite literary. It also clicks through to some great photographs. Near as I can tell, it is written by an English teacher (though I might be wrong about that) out of Tianjn (though I could also be wrong about that) named Jim Gourley (I am pretty sure I am right about that), who also goes by "Rudenoon." Anyway, this guy has serious insight and his blog is well worth a read. I urge you to read it all, but if you are going to be selective, I particularly liked the following posts: 1. "Here Come The Rats" -- History lives on in the present and that is why though the West sees this as the Chinese century, the Chinese themselves are less certain. A truly brilliant piece. 2. "Confucius Redux?" -- Best blog post yet on China's ant farm scandal. “China is a civilization pretending to be a...

The universe is the allegory of the spirit ...
2007-11-20 16:08:00 The universe is the allegory of the spirit: all that appeareth to the sense is deceit: to know the truth,--this alone shall make men free. Words are like wind but the Wordis like the Sun, it shades its lightupon the Son of Man. Theories are like gnats in the skythey are burned in the gleam of the Sun. Desire is like a shadow in the flameof love, it builds temples founded on sand. Only a pure heart is the House of truth strewed with the light of the Seven Heavensby the water of love. Fernando Soave

Pictorial Allegory - Horse on the Table
2007-11-16 03:21:00 My father in law is speaking this coming sunday at our church. The service has to do with Death and Dying and as he is a pastor and a thanatologist, it was a great fit for the service. But I had to find/create an image for him too…lol Granted this is a quick and dirty allegorical ...

New Times New Viking tracks: ?(my head)? and ?R.I.P. allegory?
2007-11-09 20:14:00 Rough and tumble Ohio trio Times New Viking have a double A-side vinyl single coming out on Matador Records. The Matablog makes reference to their new multimillion dollar recording studio, which of course is a bunch of crap. This A-side sounds like it was recorded over the phone across ten years of static. It’s basically ...
Psychic TV - Allegory & Self
2007-11-06 22:39:00 In the early 1980s, from the pulsing remains of the British proto-industrial group Throbbing Gristle rose the collective known as Psychic TV, led by the frightening and nimble mind of Genesis P-Orridge. Influenced by provocateurs like William S. Burroughs and Guy Debord, P-Orridge lives to provide spectacle in all his art. He incorporates stunning, often ...
The Allegory of the Cave from The Republic
2007-10-04 00:00:00 Few books have had as much influence on Western Philosophy as The Republic. In it, Plato asks questions that philosophers have been debating ever since. One of the most memorable passages in The Republic is the “Allegory of the Cave” in which Plato uses a monologue delivered by Socrates to illustrate his beliefs about reality. In ...

An Allegory of Reading
2007-09-05 03:27:00 This passage is already reproduced elsewhere on this site, but it seems possible to me that some readers may not yet be aware of the famous Grub Street Grackle Moby Dick Marginalia Wiki, and so I am posting it here in conjunction with the remark that this description of a man’s response to a certain painting describes very nearly the thoughts and sensations I tend to experience when reading Martin Heidegger: Entering that gable-ended Spouter-Inn, you found yourself in a wide, low, straggling entry with old-fashioned wainscots, reminding one of the bulwarks of some condemned old craft. On one side hung a very large oilpainting so thoroughly besmoked, and every way defaced, that in the unequal crosslights by which you viewed it, it was only by diligent study and a series of systematic visits to it, and careful inquiry of the neighbors, that you could any way arrive at an understanding of its pur-pose. Such unaccountable masses of shades and shadows, that at first you almost t...

The Most Hilarious Typos - February, 2006
2007-05-28 14:57:00 We are like robotic sequences. We are programmed to be anything that we can be. We and forces of us decide what to be. Even The Buddha was carved out of these "robotic sequences" - All that humans can possibly be. Science is closer to the truth than religion. The root cause of anxiety is fear. We get tangled up in life with family, friends, work, etc...

Philosophy While Brushing Teeth - 16-05-2001 (Outtake from Eons In A Moment
2007-05-28 12:41:00 See a difference, or what it is really. To find the one you love is a dream about being together. To factor the dream real is to live. Your love is blatant, and it is fine. Wishing to be defined. Human as if touch. Glance at life as how mountains rise. Reasons speculated in a world of ways right.
Universal Health Care - January, 2006
2007-05-27 03:03:00 Die or get to live forever (though technology), but then you will have to sacrifice your long life to the good of humanity. We are so afraid of death. Universal health care - Get people to believe by scaring them about death. Quote:Exploring death irrationally is what brought us religion, he argues. Depending on cryonics for immortality is "barely rational," he said, but it's more rational than depending on Jesus to provide everlasting life. - Bob Newport
