David Jones, artist and poet (1895-1974) begins his PREFACE TO THE ANATHEMATA :

'I have made a heap of all that I could find.' (1) So wrote Nennius, or whoever composed the introductory matter to Historia Brittonum. He speaks of an 'inward wound' which was caused by the fear that certain things dear to him 'should be like smoke dissipated'. Further, he says, 'not trusting my own learning, which is none at all, but partly from writings and monuments of the ancient inhabitants of Britain, partly from the annals of the Romans and the chronicles of the sacred fathers, Isidore, Hieronymous, Prosper, Eusebius and from the histories of the Scots and Saxons although our enemies . . . I have lispingly put together this . . . about past transactions, that [this material] might not be trodden under foot'. (2)

(1) The actual words are coacervavi omne quod inveni, and occur in Prologue 2 to the Historia.
(2) Quoted from the translation of Prologue 1. See The Works of Gildas and Nennius, J.A.Giles, London 1841.

The Field : Theatre of Auditory Regard


Last night we listened to the ABC.TV documentary 
Finding The Field.

To a hurlyburly of 1968 imagery, it starts with
not Jimi Hendrix' Crosstown Traffic (1968)   
Gioachino Rossini's William Tell Overture.
Then Jerry Lewis mimes over-typing-self with Title
to LeRoy Anderson's The Typewriter, as we in '68

arrive through the arch of the modernew NGV to Tchaikovsky's Dance of The Sugar Plum Fairy

and reflect there on Mel Ramsden and Ian Burn
to a J S Bach organ composition.
Fifty years pass and staff install The Field Revisited
to Vivaldi's Four Seasons.

Exeunt to Happiness Does Not Wait.
