I am contemplating this, yet it is still confusing.
Any Artaud readers here?
ewe shed it, mawghn.
Shears For Modesty!
I think he's trying to tell you not to think so much.
That would be Jacques Derrida, mawghn.
I feel special, that you hate me so much.
Like I am a celebrity or something.
Even Nenslo gave a reasonably; tolerable answer to my question, perhaps
even insightful.
You on the other hand, I fear people like you.
Are you a Deanie?
Is that why you are such a meanie?
CERTAIN PEOPLE!
hate = BARK BARK BARK
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~8<~~~~~~~~~~
meow
purrrrrrrrrrrr
Actually, I despise you casually, like I despise the spam I get in my
mailbox, shithead little deanie.
See? 20 seconds tops.
Get out of alt.slack, pink boy.
BTW, it's pathos beyond pathos to see your feeble attempts at establishing a
self-aggrandizing faux-intellectual status by pretending to read Artaud. You
skim an essay or two? But, that's the way you deanies are. Followers of a
thieving fake who says he can "do" the Met in an hour.
deanish I am
deanie, no.
deanies don't like me anymore man,
i have grown out of it over the years.
i just come here to post, because I take it the large number of
eccentrics would allow me to get lost in the crowd.
i have no intellectual status, i just have a hobby that's all.
i agree you can't do the Met in an hour.
Linus Minimax has more credibility than me in this poser art.
although, i think you paranoid, persecution complex about supposed
false profits trying to steal your slack is lame.BTW alot of people
skim, we are all a little hollow somewhere.
i don't follow much.
as for thieving, alot of artists do that.
i have no idea what dean stold
i am pretty sure he is lying about something
but to make it look like I am trying to take this whole copyright
subgenii thing is ridiculous
i don't care for dean or the book of subgenius either way.
i don't take your guys copyrighted work so, basically bugger off.
and you are definitely a weak spined acolyte, too busy sticking your
business in things that have nothing to do with you.
Money can not buy love.
indeed alt.slack was bought by the subgenii corporation.
but you people can not copyright the word slack
SO FUCK OFF.
there is more hate mongers spewing their filth here than any of my
bullshit posts could ever muster
you are a hypocrite, you do not care for the well beings of others, or
the sancity of human decency and mutual respect.
your slack will be stolen from you by invisible deities, for your
tresspases against the code of cool.
you are a hothead.
you keep picking on me, and your going to have bad luck,
i will summon small wonder and she will hypnotoad you into kansastown.
A knockout punch, Hex!!

The Artaud quote:
"And I say: shit to the spirit. I know too well by the effect of what grubby
orgies, the spirit has ended up by grabbing the place before the body that
actually preceded it. I know too well that what one calls spirit is only a
grinding shortage of existence, which was disgusted at the idea of becoming
a body itself, and counted on what the body would lose in life in order to
insure its seizure and its own subsistence via the body that it vampirized."
has been presented out of context and without proper attribution (i.e.,
date, specific piece it was quoted from).
Out of context it is basically meaningless, just a "provocative" quote.
I can only surmise that it is from later in Artaud's life, maybe after his
institutionalization for schizophrenia. One of the manifestations of his
schizophrenia was a fear and loathing of the body (his body) and he sort of
post-facto rationalized this pathology by references to gnosticism in his
writing.
So it has a schizophrenic's personal psychological meaning... a talented,
passionate schizophrenic, yes, but still a schizophrenic.
In addition, looking for "meaning" in ANY kind of surrealism, let alone
Artaud's very personal, psychological and schizophrenic brand of surrealism,
is a fool's errand. It's not going to fit into your deanie frame.
Read the whole damn essay and don't be looking for quotes you can wear like
a t-shirt slogan.
Get the Sontag Artaud collection and read a few more essays. There's good
biographical material in it.
You know I sent it already - the BME postcard!!

"the soul is the prison of the body"
although I said I was guessing,
obviously it seems you read more Artaud than I have.
agreed he was a mental case, and it is pretty fruitless to find meaning
in surrealism
but it is almost as if you don't care if there was a possible meaning
or not.
i skimmed the words, you seemed to skim the meaning of them in your
mind.
which is fine.i don't hold postmodernism to much esteem, and to each
their opinion.
and BOB (screw you people I call him Bob for my purposes)
don't call me a deanie, because i am not a complete homogenized
replication of your school.
that's why I argue with you and your readers often.
I really whole heartedly believe that anthropomorphism is not filling
the void as you would claim.
you connie hiding son of a butler!
i am not some jumping jack gary null windmill freak who quotes Joyce
while i pass over homeless people in manhattan.i don't live in the
world's second largest globalist city, spewing pipe dreams of supposed
ecstatic canadian percept archetypes.i am a born and bred american who
hates america more than a canadian ever could.and i am not inside out
anymore because i don't have shame for accomplishing and wanting
excellence.
i certainly do not blame anyone less fortunate than me, and have no
worries about disrupting the balance of the human system.
i am not a visual space phobe like you are.
and i think acoustic space is overrated.
although i write as if there was no separation between my subject
material.
i am a tiny purple dot in the middle of nowhere touching everything.

> shut up, deanie.
Wrong forum.
The GREAT Bob Dobbs
why don't you tell me what Artaud meant?
can't tell me huh?
you are almost as bad as Soddi.
