Acrobat’s Song

Acrobat’s Song

Acrobat's Song Who is it for whom we now perform, Cavorting on wire: For whom does the boy Climbing the ladder Balance and whirl— For whom, Seen or unseen In a shield of light? Seen or unseen, In a shield of light, At the tent top Where the rays stream in Watching the pin-wheel Turns of the players Dancing in the light: Lady, We are Thy …

On To The Fields Of Praise

On To The Fields Of Praise

The Lover Of God In the wake of learning about the binding problem, what has come to mind are some of my favorite poems, and in particular great turns of line, whose power has much to do with a sudden shift in how our mind is constructing meaning: a slide from one narrative construction to another, which renders the whole construction process transparent, allowing the freedom of the unconstructed …

How Infinitely The Heart Expands

How Infinitely The Heart Expands

Monet Refuses the Operation Doctor, you say that there are no haloes around the streetlights in Paris and what I see is an aberration caused by old age, an affliction. I tell you it has taken me all my life to arrive at the vision of gas lamps as angels, to soften and blur and finally banish the edges you regret I don't see, to learn that the line I called the horizon does not exist …

Practice Notes: Hasty Generalization, Parasite & The Australian Open

Practice Notes: Hasty Generalization, Parasite & The Australian Open

Parasite Recently saw Parasite—a brilliantly whacky and over-the-top satire on class relations. If you haven’t already, I’d say it’s worth checking out. The title of the film points to its primary theme and central ambiguity, expressed nicely here in one review: Who are the real parasites?
