BREXIT (Britain Votes To Exit E.U.)

       

KING HENRY V 

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our English dead.

- Shakespeare : Henry V | Act 3, Scene 1

      

Once more unto the Yeats, dear friends, 

once more :

        

THE SECOND COMING

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity. 

Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: a waste of desert sand;
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Wind shadows of the indignant desert birds. 

The darkness drops again but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

- William Butler Yeats, 1919

Since May 11 this year I have been ritually interring the entirety of my 40-year archive (including two cars, various collections of furniture, clothing and sundry objects) in a 20x8x3 metre burial chamber carved from the red desert soil of a private 8-acre garden located in Irymple, a village on the outskirts of Mildura in northwestern Victoria.

On the evening of the 20^th of June, at the conjunction of the full moon and the southern hemisphere’s winter solstice, an all-night vigil acknowledging both this unique celestial conjunction and my project will be held alongside the burial site. 

Eventually, when the ritual placing of each object inside the burial chamber is completed, the gathered collections will be covered by the excavated soil and an elevated mound will be shaped over the top.

Seven trees will be planted atop the mound’s apex; a cypress, an olive, a fig, a lemon, a vine, an almond and a Casuarina pine.

A spectrum of seven solar-powered lights, each corresponding both to one of the plantings as well as to a chakra colour will then be installed at the base of each trunk, indicating that the collected body lying under the earth is still, even if at rest, continuing to function harmonically.

Throughout the burial I have been singing all the songs I know.

From sunset on the 20^th of June until sunrise the following morning I will join with David Palliser, Ren Walters and Juana Beltran in presenting a series of improvised sounds and actions to a gathering of friends, in response to the conjunction of solstice, full moon and burial.

Singing, then, sound-making and body action offered as an expression of being, not doing; such being practiced as mindful search for the moment when blindness becomes sightedness.

You are warmly invited to join us on this night to share whatever unfolds.

Domenico de Clario

In Truth I Say Unto You :

The previous post, 'because these images are sick making', offers an example of the error/strategy of paying attention to the finger that points rather than to that which the finger points at.

"The truth is, we keep getting promised the images we saw won't happen again."

"The truth is...
...let me be clear, Labor supports having a live export trade,
but these images are not good enough to simply say business as usual."

Extract from BILL'S TRANSCRIPTS :

E&OE TRANSCRIPT
DOORSTOP
HOBART
FRIDAY, 17 JUNE 2016

SUBJECTS: Labor’s positive plans for Tasmania; Labor's plans to tackle youth unemployment; Media access to debates; Murder of British Labour MP Jo Cox; Sheik Shady Alsuleiman; Marriage equality; 
Liberal plans to privatise Medicare; Parakeelia; Live exports

JOURNALIST : Do you agree with the suspension of live exports to the abattoirs in Vietnam over animal cruelty and do you think more should be done?

       

SHORTEN : Yes I do agree with the suspension. Those images are shocking. And before Barnaby Joyce and the rest of the brigade say this means, you know, this means criticising live export is somehow an attack on the whole industry. The truth is, we keep getting promised the images we saw won't happen again. This Government cannot be trusted with the supply chain in live exports, I think that we need to have an Independent Office of Animal Welfare which oversights the supply chain system of live exports. Otherwise many Australian will question the viability of the industry. And let me be clear, Labor supports having a live export trade, but these images are not good enough to simply say business as usual. And we need a new system of regulation which will ensure integrity in the system, because those images are sick making.

          

Shouldn't it be the actions?

Shouldn't it be :

Those images ACTIONS are shocking. 

The truth is, we keep getting promised the images ACTIONS we saw won't happen again.

And let me be clear, Labor supports having a live export trade, but these images ACTIONS are not good enough to simply say business as usual. 

because those images ACTIONS are sick making.

No wonder artists such as Lautrec and Van Gogh were so impressed when they encountered works like this by Hokusai. Here, too! 
          

       
Late Edo period, Japan. The famous artist Hokusai (he changed his name thirty times  e.g. from 1834 :
Gakyō Rōjin Manji/The Old Man Mad About Art)
paints onto silk the scene of an unsung painter applying fresh coal black to the base of a red pillar.

Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849) : seal worthy of our best tagger

Monash University, Clayton, 1975. The brand new Department of Visual Arts' first artist-in-residence FIAPCE (also known by various other names) photographs the scene of an unsung painter applying white paint to a red post.
