Dionysus like to dance and Paul D. Miller plays great dance music! My =
favourite album is "Songs of a Dead Dreamer" and in this work, by de words =
of her alter-ego, Dj Spooky, That Subliminal kid, he wrote in the booklet o=
f CD: "The link-ages between memory, time, and place, are all externalized =
and made accessiblc to the listner from the wiewpoint of the Dj who makes d=
e mix (...). The mix, in this picture, allows the invocation of different l=
anguages, texts and sound to converge, meld and create a new medium that tr=
anscends its original components". A good exemple of that, is what Paul D. =
Miller did with a sampler of the David Lynch instrumental tune, "In heaven,=
everything is perfect," from their debut movie, "Eraserhead". This particu=
lar trake is the number seven of the album and have for title, "Juba". The =
organ of the David Lynch tune, in the Dj Spooky context, invoke me a ameri=
can stadium full of people, in a day of a baseball game.That's a reminiscen=
ce of the fairwell state of USA, the happy state bulding in a massive repre=
ssion of the black culture, represented in "Juba" by tribal percussions and=
a flute and, in the end of the track, the organ sound get out of tune and =
switch off.
Another excellent work of Paul D. Miller, is "Necropolis, the Dialogic=
Project," a compilation with Dj SoulSlinger, Outtro, We, Naut Humon, Joe N=
ation and Dj Spooky mixed this experimental album of ambient dub and Jungle=
: "The anomalies in this mix are coordinate points marking an invisible ter=
rain (...) distortion and feedback, strange silences that pop up from nowhe=
re, scratchy record noises, etc, are all sgnifiers of a construction zone o=
f sound seeking sensibility. Teach your eyes to hear and your ears to see a=
nd you will understand what we call reality," wrote Paul Miller.
Listen to him... I have no words!

RHIZOME RAW: revolutionary strategys


Hi, Lee!

Why a 1.000.000 person march over Washington? For what? The crow yelling=
some slogans, two or three order words, maybe to have some confronts with =
the police and in the end, all this people return to their homes, watching =
television and see images of this giant manifestation on a 1.000.000 screen=
s! Sorry to disappoint you, but the tactics of the May of 68 are obsolete a=
nd, unfortunately, in the anti-globalization movements, i don't see the eme=
rgence of a new mode of collective action, but this movements, continue to =
follow the patterns that don't work anymore! And Max Herman was right, when=
he wrote: "Seems to me a case of too much conversation and no action!" In=
fact, the art or the philosophy, in my way of think, only have sense in th=
e "praxis". "In the beginning there was the action", Toni Negri said in the=
book, "Les Nouveaux espaces de liberte", by Felix Guattari. Even so, t=
his email i send to you, is not to talk about books, but is to define some =
concrete strategies of fighting and i would like to hear your opinion, of s=
ome ideas to concern of political action.
You know, in this actual state of things, only matter the identity, th=
e supervalue. So, the strategy is to annul this supervalue from the bodies =
and corrupt the identity, accepted by the generality of the society, simple=
as that! Change the trade marks of the objects and replace them for one na=
me, invented by you. Scraping the logtype of everything, in order to erasur=
e for complete all the lebels. Imagine a particular mark of cars, without h=
er star! What you think it would happen? It simply would exist anymore!
Try spread the message: jeans, computers, videos, televisions, takin=
g off their signs of supervalue! It would be the caos, if most of the peopl=
e would act that way!
Now, imagine a hundred guys, in front of a store, dressing from the fe=
et to the top of the head, clothes of this mark and with scissors, cutting-=
up all the lebels! Destroying a lebel in a particular object, that you paid=
for it, could be a crime? I'm not jurist, but i don't thing so and any mar=
k of the world, pay to you to advertise her products in your body! But, ima=
gine the scene, day by day, in the televisions all over the world, you see =
people setting free of labels and after, you have publicity of the same tra=
de marks in the break time of the TV shows! That was a untenable paradox fo=
r the capitalism system...
Think of that!

Best regards:

Joao Pedro

P.S. Sorry by the writing errors of my last message. I was very tired =
and is hard to me, work all day in portuguese language and after this, writ=
e in english.

RHIZOME RAW: A word of warning-don't believe in genius


An amazing thing in our times, is the supervaluation of half-mads,
fanatics or self-entitled genius. They saw things that the others can't
see-of course! That's not to be wondered, but is a advise to us, to act wit=
h prudence and do not trust in them."

Friedrich Nietzsche, in "Morgenrothe", 66-Aptness to the Visions.

First, thanks to Lee Wells and Manik for their support!

Affirmation is not to be perfect or sublime... In fact, the sublime =
man is the fascist, the only one that pretending to conduct the human race =
to the truth! The sublime man, he knows above all, he's a expert about ever=
ything, he will answer to each man, until give reason to her and all the ot=
hers be resembled like him.
Affirmation do not prove anything, will not grow heavy in the shoulder=
s of the neighbour like a burden, the burden of life that i refuse to carry=
! On the contrary, affirmation is to relieve, to make easy the live of the=
next, not arguing with a dogmatic persuation, edit a roll of emails to att=
ack like all the others was the enemy! This is stupid! But what can we do? =
The sublime man don't laugh, don't dance, is a bad player! He lays a wager =
and he plays to win, betted to defy all and everyone of us!
Denying the charge of the sublime man, is to set free our minds, free fr=
om this facist power, the paranoia transformed in potential, void of determ=
inations. We play a revolutionary game: to became what we cannot be, in the=
standardizing language of the power, by her imperative and angry tone that=
we never respected! Sentences from a courthouse? Sorry, but i live very we=
ll without a vision of salvation! And i don't yield up to any pattern, beca=
use i love to be free, free
to think and think is to have power to... I know that's a dangerous thought!
