An egoism of memoirs ; Grandad's last visit

Reflections of the self: Grandad on a deathbed, something I won't upload on an LLM. To what I admit, as I like to eliminate myself in service of a community of an iteration of practice of the present times, I know it isn't everything.
Cheesy, corny parts of a life placed here are all flavour text for my more important articulations

They gave a history of his life. Here's this quote I got on a text message.

"Grandad grew up on a farm; your great-grandad was a pig farmer. He would take Grandad to the agricultural fairs in the farm truck which had Olders Farm on the side of it. He would enter his prize pigs. The most famous of which was called 'Bournes Green Maple the third'. A photo of the pig was behind his desk in his office. 

Grandad's 1st job was ________, and he had a big cart he would collect the pig muck on and sell it for fertiliser. Another job he had was human scarecrow ... he had to stand in a field and shoot the birds as they came to eat the crops. 

Grandad then went in the __________ for national service and spent 3 years in _______ operating a radar. He then went to agricultural college, where he met Granny.

He worked as a teacher and worked training farm labourers to do stuff on farms , then he married Granny and they worked in ________ , and did agricultural training with the people there. Later they went to Papua New Guinea and did the same thing there."


He looked so weak in the bed; his faint smile from past his 80's was the impression.

Media critics = reading the dead

Despite the function of social media, what predates our own ways and thought patterns can be reserved us
Determine entire personalitys?

Yet with the predetermination of the tech, only with the sociological/psychological fictions can it be made to help serve, yet with that described desire of such a task, we are through with picking a pluralistic phenomenon of many minds coming into one space of social media.

How do you read that? How can it be read? Noise from the fuzz can only lead to distinction, then decision.

Silly monopolies of the front.

Meilorism Vs Specification


Even with all the iterations, syncreticism, and eclecticism of aesthetic ideas with no physical boundaries.

The feedback of the editing practice and process leads down the way to the finish line, something that anyone without an editor can do, something that everybody can accomplish now that everyone can copyright.

To the point that it's enough and that physical shipping leads to the end. Yet teleologically, all accomplishments lead towards another.

Over and under the specification until the consciousness leaves it.

Moderate transgressivness


Art is underdeterministic

Entertainment is overdeterministic.

Question the transgression if the gate and fence reasons are unquestioned.

Where is it?

Of the pretty good dissatisfaction of sex.

Still thinking about sex capital. Or a hopeful irony-maxxing from a pornographer who rambles. Along with the amount

Yet at this point, I lurk on Substack. I'm not sure the way of the defeatist hack way of egoism that I happened to have with the boon is defensible; sex sells, or until it doesn't.

Or is it that the spectacle sells? That's been as old as time, as old as play. As old as the caveman being able to dance before industry from agriculture.

It's becoming apparent that the intuition of the commodity. Or what.

"I'm merely doing what's natural and expressing my sexuality." Sure thing, do express complexity. Or, to conclude with this post, to utopia with heaven in denial of the metaphysics of it all. Common sense and intuitions will be around.

(Oh, Did he use beep_Boop? Idc now.Don't at me.)

Beyond Commodity Relations

Modes of production and commodity relations – all that affect our cognitions and extensions. This could be the bundling with the trying to capture the meaning

That was what Althusser was about when he examined dialectical materialism, which has gone through sociology and economics. Yet the fixation on such an ontology can only lead to blindness, sub-blindness to the perceptions of all phenomena and interpretationism, from the literal matters. 

Thats his diagram of, I follow the crosswordist image of cosiliance

Simple and complex pleasures, by utilitarian Jeremy Bentham. That if a philosopher is unsatisfied, then an animal wants more of that inside-out desire. The banal and the elite – yet to the postmodernist, they deinterpret all meaning into non-hierarchical demergence.

So, no wonder it makes a case, as people rejected such questionnaires.

Yet from the pragmatists, and even by extension of liberal policy. Then comes a time with all the useful fiction of easily measured money and eliminative materialism.

I lurk now, and the audiences of other posters who go on TikTok and do these 

Pleometric produces.. odd work, and with Neural Fizz, Arika and the Amoebas.

@pleometric
"do people watch this slop?" yes and they love it. The thing about short form is that worse is better, things are meant to be consumed, discarded and remixed into new strains. The slop is the point."


Really? So worse ? Better? Or a sweet desire to post and define practice in another area of distribution. This workerism, defined as Immanuel Kant's miserablism and John Locke's conception of property as a monopoly of deliberation, is only going ot become a different conception of ownership.

That's okay.

incoherent, inconsistent, incogent, incongruent, incohesive

Reading Susan Haack's coherence, consistency, cogency, congruency, and cohesiveness – don't go overboard! To add that to the crossword mindset of syenchism of 'pragmatics'

I don't know if this is the one hustlers use to dismiss and race to the bottom, yet here we go.

All allowed under the suspension of disbelief and unreality. We are allowed thought patterns with the credence of our monistic attention to the circumstances. These are the elements. That comes from the spectator and for the prosumer spectacle, to the consumption of hegemonic thought. Spotting each point so that the suspension of our own phenomenon reflects the character's mind, our third-person omnipotence.

The pedantic Co's may not be the point.

Mereology of Aesthetics

As with cartooning, the ideas and conceptions adapted to for a new state of creation.

Reduction flatpacking to establish holism with the attempt to move the improvised beats to scenes, to sequences, to acts, to a completed novel. All this relationism, from coherentism to incoherentism, and all those effects rest on the imagined dogmas present under the legalese of fiction.

All in suspension of the fiction.

Unworth


Critical ignoring and certain concepts may not have been important for a book reader who's happened to keep his social media intake low. A qualitative opportunity for banality or a canvas of expression.

Or so that's how it's supposed to go. With the prepositional manners and attitude of.

The image of the thing, the spectacle of the thing, within the manner comes from the in-sync and sync states. Scheduled and paying attention to what's in and out.

Oh, an A-axiology feels tautological.

on the lindy effect

The Lindy Law

Reading self-help advice of crafting crafter for craft. The way of the meta of meta. Self-referential.

WITH NO OWNERSHIP Welcome to the creative commons. Are you surprised?

So much intake of consumption of content with the way it's like it's got that way. Industry complex of condescension on the front page, or am I looking at the mindless entertainment in infront of the front page?

This is the best the place has to offer.

Then you have to protect your attention.

Then with manners it goes. To look in the other places.

Catechisms not contingent on

With talks going on and on, exchanges like that.

I wonder how many read and take literature and the formation of themselves and news through the oracles of experts. Then that way, through there insights, it will lead to a new turn of know-how, to being in the know.

The produce with the service to advertising.

With no contingencies, there is no need for any attempt of casualness; they all go and vanish away from the disposable chatrooms.

That 1%, out of a direct response. Could be oblivious, and that's okay.

Even the lonely ones leave on the Substack. Unable to sell a copy, the attention drought is with us. Either stuck in short-form video trying to get engagement.

Comparing it to a hamster wheel. Generating and accumulating raw datum of the insights landing randomly on.

On Art & Fear 1000 pots

The little data coarsened with the data made. Then it pops out.

What does it mean within AI? The interactions? The ideas? The way things and virality happen on the internet, what does 'better' mean? What does meliorism matter now? 
That's the idea: the one who produced 1000 pots other than one perfect pot was better, apparently. That was the study. It could have reflected on the method or the means to produce more content or the means of production of perfection to make a single piece worse.

Yet with all these word comparatives, is it so that to judge a ship of Theseus, it's remade into that new non-value? So it's made into another status object that will lead into another state of being for another?

Regardless. All iterations, though, are made in that manner;
that's been another one.

Ain't pleasent enough


All those minor iterations and alterations, of somewhat could be considered.

Little bit here, no, remove one here.

Move and make it to the end.

Not the end, and all the way it's like that.

No,

Yeah,

The ideas work here.

Then what's visualised, then what's here.

The work or hobby craft

little bit of hands

Little left

Honest hacks vs depressed hacks


Depending on the socialised means of production. The artisan city/suburban dweller class.

It's work of art/entertainment paradox working here.

I'm going to twist this post by Seth and Harlan Ellison it up.

There are the vendors who will listen. Hits, specs. These are easy-to-work-with entertainers. Able to connect with.

Then there's the depressed one who hits the spec, yet feels rote. These could be talents. 

I mean, that's the difference; the artisan is a creative with tension in the craft.

The craft itself of the depressed feels rote and standardised. These could be tantrums as performances.

An honest hack entertainer delivers on times, understands specifications, yet can go beyond the mechanical performances of eliminative materialism and then attempt an organsim to delight with something remarkable with the client relationship,

fatalism destiny of elitism



These anti-realist, anti-representation attempts.

That Orson Welles turned his nose up at those snooty naught experts while teasing his audience with his wife in such an anti-plot way. Creatives in the field are faces with an academic system that has failed to overcome the gatekeepers.

So, left to fend for themselves or get lucky, as they say.

With what attempts to hold together, even with a pirate/anarchism, there are attempts to hold a leadership, or they call it Hydra leadership. Yet to be proven.

Can there be fatalism to consumerism and business transactionalism? Of middle class transactions, there are other business models. Cost of living and such. Or the owning-class property relations or the working class relations in; tension as the divide is made.

To pick which fates and destinies is all part of the commitment.

Oh, I'm thinking about this Marxist sociologist, Nicolas D Villarreal using the labor theory of value. of the beep_boop solutions.

On vulgar Auteurism, Vulgar style/genre

Kyle Kallgren likes to be the critic of literary auteurs. Or the art director/producer running the show and their vision.

Yes, even with style, even with genre, one can still be bad.

Axiology does not care about the legalese pf
the front cover, the performance the the resonance which follows after, beyond the natural law.

So that from court of law to public. It remains the distinction of low and high still. It can be suspended to serve plenty of stimulation.

Or YOU TEARING ME APART!! LISA WITH SYMBOLIC JUSTICE

video 🔻🛋 on the best/worst over-distributed vanity film. In the spirit of Robert Mcghee. Of the spectacular production and the founderent manueavuring through the industry. Deproffesional within the social media.


(Wonder where Kyles video will be next? I don't follow him.)

Notes on oversetext design course

. The meta of social media is the limit of the craft, with people copying conventional IP to thirstrap/tail at the treat. Is that what one of the polemical essays did? Try to highlight this cargo cult. The commercial illustration mindset!

Wow, banging on the factory settings was a great banger, with its polemics of the one-dimensional man of the standardisation of our consciousness.

The tyranny of the firm is one that's to be solved through other essays which deal with contract law and freelancers alongside that with the chokepoint of vertically integrated media.
Freelancers founded into a new venture should act more like enterprising firms; who'd have thun
k it.

The video explaining modernism and its polemical connotations was spot on.

Wonder what oversetect will be after I Post this? Regardless, I'll thank him for the list.

A deliberate, non-serious response : Conservative art essay, and my aesthetic direction

(Is this complimentary doodle, Idk)
 This one, one with the funded kickstarter, apparently. I'll keep it low profile, I've already dived in to anti-positions such as porn, and now it's a conservative one (Intelligent at least.)

Made a good argument for consciousness.

  • Hays code realism is on point. Best part.

    (They're still posts about this)
  • Transgressive realism and dysthrophic realism are both confused, maybe he's being cynical with how everthing ia co-opted by reactionary capital? Doug Ruskoff the Merchants of cool documentary covered this phenomenon with mtv, test audiences and mtv. This is merely central institutions trying to resonate, you still have your romantic realism on a indie level.
  • Is he nostaliging of the home of Classical realism

More of the American Jingo realism of GURNS.

  • Who claims the aesthetic of this category of romantic realism? I'm more a gothic in the aesthetic realm, yet here's to a category exclusive to partisanship. Decide their entitlement to dictate women's bodies, its always weird, they are reminded they are not in control. Self-flagellation, and simply not that note-worthy, considering the Stellers blade and other designs not convening to that nuclear family expectation.

(That lara croft is unflattering comparison btw)

Pretty commissions and at least superhero stuff happening, I can see.

Peter Coffin went that these continuing qualia of interpretation of ideas, With these commodified into conventions of the trad-wife/stepford wive type of deal, at least that former Randian is trying his best to crawl by refuting romantic realism, I never had to entertain it.
How are labour is made to follow along the conditions of rule, into a commodified community to then circulate new aesthetics like this one.

Now for my own which I'll coin in aesthetical tastes. Here's my own taste.

Foundherent Realism or Gothic
Crosswordism
A combination of pragma and dogma, to bring forwards a manner which drive dialectical realism which is to pursuit of knowledge (Epistme) and the holism of the techne of art in its edges of mysticism. There are the ways that is can bring with a physical foundation, and the emergent culture of our arts, aligning with our conventions of hacksmanship, entertaining illusions of spectacle. Both dancing concepts. It can both handle abstraction and representation.
or so, with the industry of it's essence (The show must go on) Of Life's fulfilment and it's deaths decay. Embracing both of dialectic of structure and superstructure to help build a knowledge and culture worth fighting for. Or so that's strength, ( Provided with a Eric Helms autoregulation physical programming of the body.)

So what am I to do with the entertainment enterprise? Critique it? Endorse it? Well, You'll get it.
Shall the area of our immaterial reflect the materials anew, and bring a shine of new pragma and dogma. I wish it well. As originate from a classical past and reunify it from it's iconoclastic trappings. (That's from Schott Mclout

From the sublimely mawkish, compared to it's abject horrors. For they bring into our own urban fantasy they reflect our areas.

We where all sloppers in the prosumer, primordial soup. (Except for the Harry Potter bit.)

Have a sofa seat from my ref folder. A non sequitor.

https://newsletter.rootsofprogress.org/p/in-defense-of-slop

 Thing about a slop, its made us more mindful with our consumption, Our intakes and our Imputs, when we don't swing down the entire Burn-the-internet-memes-on-behalf-of-disneys-drm-repulsive-practices. It's made me think of pleasure, about shock value, about attention. In 1970s and it's a slow, absent doomerism that's only made me want to do something more.

Avoid mediocrity, and mediocre of the averages, with independence of vision. ( Wow, James Gurney, if that's a thing, Commodity fetishism'n all, it's banal now, so now what I'm going to do?)

That's the problem with slop, it's anti-positivist definition, not a metric. Going to like another bara pin-up now at my microblogging feed.

Well, there's an article that's made me think, including Andy Masleys

With all the slop, SEO and all the stuff, the principles of distribution remain the same.

Oh, they're trying to inspiration porn JK Rowling again, I'll post this Verily one

*Prosumerist, it's naturally, physically impossible to disassociate from consumerism. Only get post-scarcity.

Why i may not be a comic artist.

Contemplation, I'll continue zining. Yet a need the negative space to propel forward.
  • Low pay: Lack of wages since it's one of the passions that can't be fuelled and be profitable, that's a reality with most creative industries. Or, oxymoronically, it's due to creativity might not pay off, an indertinimate amount of trying to make something new.
  • Abusive Supervisors with awful labour management practices/ No labour protections: This comes from expierence, I brushed with them twice , Well, with graphic design/illustrator jobs.
    I learned more from Eric Helms bodybuilding pyramid and then that. Realistic, enjoyable, and flexible.
  • Hustle Mindset: Level up! Power scaling! Amelioration for the sake of it, when all the labour puts down with the distribution being sent online for a microblogging platform that only expects pornographic performances, or something to that of copywriting. A mental model that's never good enough with the metric that can harbour averages.

    There's a ladder, and there's a bridge to sell you, so many with the how-to-industry complex.

  • Art is mere copyrighting commodification: Well, You know if you know. At least I know I'm a hackneyed entertainer for transparency of my aesthetics with what I show, like a magician's illusion, because I find it fun to hold attention. They do have a vanity with the delusions of grandeur. Especially with the industry of publishers of copyrighting for them with PR. Lack of self-respect with the field of not protecting there labour.
That's water is wet moment. Yet I do it anyway.


 Other than that, the vision of making a storyboard to life continues.
