So I am going ahead with this mini and hopefully, *hopefully*, I’ll make it in time for a TCAF debut. I was hoping to do it in purple, but chances are I’ll be xeroxing this at a copy shop in Toronto at the last minute. Black and white it is, at least for now.
i want it real bad
THIS IS JUST BEAUTIFUL
Sometimes, I’d like to write a book
A book all about time
About how it doesn’t exist,
How the past and the future
Are one continuous present.
I think that all people - those living,
those who have lived
And those who are still to live - are alive now.
I should like to take that subject to pieces,
Like a soldier dismantling his rifle.wrote Yevgeny Vinokurov

It is as if determining the border between human and animal were not just one question among many discussed by philosophers and theologians, scientists and politicians, but rather a fundamental metaphysico-political operation in which alone something like “man” can be decided upon and produced. If animal life and human life could be superimposed perfectly, then neither man nor animal -and, perhaps, not even the divine- would any longer be thinkable. For this reason, the arrival at posthistory necessarily entails the reactualization of the prehistoric threshold at which that border had been defined. Paradise calls Eden back into question.
