4.1. – 20.12.25: ???







Week 4/2025:
PULP & BOUDIN NOIR.


AI had its job replaced by AI. “La caille que j’ai mangée hier avec mon bon collègue m’a beaucoup plu.” Jeg kan godt lide den københavnske tåge. It’s refreshing. Katharina Klement & Doechii. Violence against the river. I like when movies don’t have a musical soundtrack. Radiostück für Stereo-Kopfhörer. SOME NEW SHIT.




Week 3/2025:
AFFECT DELIVERY.


The unfamiliar smells and the sounds of birds and rodent I never heard before kept me awake. Pursueing our cravings. Music for Pleasure. We all worship in our very own way. Cultural Histories of Meditation.




Week 2/2025:
SUN/AIR/ASHES,


“How death is simply death” (Chang, Obit, 2020, p. 12) “I say everything out loud to myself that I silvable silently“ (Egger, Farbkompartimente, 2023, p. 70; my translation) “Nowhere, absolutely nowhere was there any escape from totality.” (Deigner & Wey, Der endlos tippende Affe, 2022, 18:59; my translation) „There is not a monoaffective imaginary“ (Helms, Vishmidt & Berlant 2010) „A situation isn‘t like a jacket you can just take off the person.“ (Chang, Obit, 2020, p. 77) “a list-y, circuitous, roving vibeology.” (Kornbluh, Immediacy, 2023, 6) “We can let things live” (Chang, Obit, 2020, p. 55)




Week 1/2025: IT’S ALL BURNIGN DOWN.

It’s all burning down, and that’s apparently what the people in power and capital had in mind all along. Around 1989/1990, when excessive populism, disinformation and incitement to violence against minority groups in society were used in Germany to enrich the most powerful and exploit their followers even more, I could not avoid a deep depression. These days I try very hard to work against it. At the moment I am not so sure that I will succeed.
