#RIP Jacqueline de Jong
Overlooked member of The Situationist International. I remember her mentioned a few times in Knabb's SI Anthology. An interesting life & post-SI career.
"Self-taught Dutch painter, sculptor, and graphic artist Jacqueline de Jong, known for her inextinguishable commitment to figuration and for founding the landmark periodical the #Situationist Times, died June 29 in Amsterdam following a brief illness."

What I suspect is a flint core, picked up at work yesterday. There is a vein of redness running through the grey, coinciding in part with a band of tiny glittering crystals on the broken surface. A camera phone really cannot do it justice, I'm afraid! I wonder if the red vein and crystals governed the choice to work the flint? #Geology #Flint #Archaeology #Prehistory #Lithics

Lived here for 30 years but only noticed this stone on the flower bed yesterday. Signs of repeated working? A lithic core?

A piece of sarsen debitage found at Stonehenge, 51 km away, came from a group of boulders at Bramdean, arranged in their current position by a Colonel Greenwood in the 19th century. Nevertheless the spot does seem to fall on some interesting alignments, including the one presented here. It takes in Hinton Ampner church, a crossroads on Gander Down, the length of the southern cloister that surrounds the Fromond Chantry at Winchester College, and St Michael's church nearby #sarsens #Stonehenge

A parallelogram of forces manifesting at different moments...
In one of Issy's footnotes in Finnegans Wake, each initial letter of three incantatory hexasyllabic sentences spells, in triplicate, ALP’s initials: Apis amat aram. Luna legit librum. Pulla petit pascua. Translated, it reads: ‘The bee loves the altar. The moon reads a book. The foal seeks the pasture’, anticipating the hexagonal form of a shrine in a Hampshire field.

Running deer in Rownest Wood, 10th February, 2012.
Brought to a standstill as 20-30 fallow deer swiftly crossed the road in front of me...
Seconds later, only three dark shapes can be discerned running through the woodland, to the left of the pair of trees in the foreground. The piano on the radio - possibly César Franck's Violin Sonata in A - seems to trace the urgent, fleet-footed rhythm of their departure, as the violin weaves in and out in flight.

Gratifying to see my essay cited in the new book, 'Timeless Joyce: A Hundred Years of Ulysses' by Asun Lopez-Varela Azcárate, 2023. Quite generous use of it, I'd say, especially regarding the identification of the star, Aldebaran, and extensive paraphrases of the mythological material on oxen and bees, lacking direct citations within the text. Attentive readers of the book might like to look at this for sources https://www.mdpi.com/2077-1444/9/11/375 #Ulysses #Ulysses100 #Aldebaran #JamesJoyce #FinnegansWake

On May 13, 1959, the Italian painter Giuseppe Pinot Gallizio premiered in Paris with an exhibition titled Une caverne de l’anti-matière (A Cavern of Antimatter), at Galerie René Drouin, rue Visconti, anticipating CERN's experiments with anti-matter #antimatter #CERN #Situationist

"Better to be thought a fool," he said. Austin Osman Spare never attempted to disabuse his wealthier, more socially-advantaged contemporaries, such as Dion Fortune and Aleister Crowley, of the impression that he thought it was the pie & eel gland that was the 'Third Eye' of the mystics.

Very remiss of me to assume that a link on academia dot edu could just be opened without going through the rigmarole of opening an account there (which I would automatically refuse if I encountered that obstacle). So here's an open link to the pdf of an essay on philosophical configurations of anomalous experience #Neurology #Migraine #FortificationSpectrum #Coincidence #CriticalTheory #WalterBenjamin #TheodorAdorno #AnomalousExperience #AnomalousPhenomena https://thegrammarofmatter.wordpress.com/2023/09/03/between-fractured-landscape-and-neurological-event-a-philosophical-configuration-of-anomalous-experience/

A link to the full text of 'Spirits and Stones: Shamanism and Rock Art in Central Asia and Siberia'. It includes my essay, 'Shamans, lamas and the social effectiveness of rock art' which juxtaposes the practice of Buryat shamanism with the 'artistic materialism' of Asger Jorn. The book explores the 'wilderness of connections' between shamanic practitioners, the spirit world and the world of rock art imagery.

Glimpsing Cassiopeia's rising above the mountain at winter solstice... Does it convey the yet-to-be-realised promise of escape from the death march of capital or a baleful prefiguration of climate catastrophe?

PSYCHOMETRIST
I listened to a man, and he
Had no word to say to me:
Then unto a stone I bowed,
And it spoke to me aloud.- The force that bindeth me so long,
Once sang in the linnet's song;
Now upon the ground I lie,
While the centuries go by!- Linnets shall for joy atone
And be fastened into stone;
While, upon the waving tree,
Stones shall sing in ecstasy!James Stephens, The Hill of Vision (1912)

Ten Tools for Land Justice -
featuring the notorious Charborough Estate and the longest brick wall in England. John Samuel Wanley Sawbridge Erle-Drax (responsible for building that wall to keep the commoners out) was awarded £4293 in compensation for the 189 slaves the family owned in Barbados. In fact, the Drax family still owns its former slaving estate in Barbados – whose government is currently planning to pursue the family for reparations #landjustice #reparations
