But a little black spot remains ... couldn't it be that way ?<br /><br />Certainly it was an other planet, and I was certainly another (having some identity problems now :-).<br /><br />But at the end I think that the feeling that something most be wrong may be, as Douglas Adams wrote, pure paranoia and a feeling shared by each living being in the Universe. Nevertheless I have it.<br /><br />MauroMauro Thon Giudicihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596131985430080494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073087446713304375.post-11756041578774109282010-02-07T15:52:15.950+01:002010-02-07T15:52:15.950+01:00Will do, I could do with a laugh.

Vaneigem's "Revolution of Everyday Life", Debord's "Society of the Spectacle", etc. I've found them very interesting but, from a British point of view, there is also something very funny about a bunch of European hyper-intellectuals doing little more than getting very stoned and wandering about the place in a daze, then feeling the need to write it up as a contribution to knowledge and world revolution. "Raoul and Guy's Excellent Adventure", perhaps...<br /><br />In Britain, "psychogeography" has become associated with people like Iain Sinclair and a school of writing which tries to suggest that places (particularly places in London) have a memory and an influence over human life -- it's that old British obsession with ley lines and the like, dressed up in modern clothes. It seems we're all still druids, under the skin...<br /><br />I must admit, the idea of the derive does fit very well with my own aimless-but-purposeful wanderings with a camera.<br /><br />Best wishes,<br /><br />MikeMike C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11279776665185060446noreply@blogger.com
