  24. “But he meant beauty in the sense of its organic connection to the material. And this is the connection that, for me, separates true stylists from decorators. The decorators are easy to recognize. That's why critics love them so.”

  25. Tube Map of Queer Authors

    Look what a UK friend pointed out to me the other day (thanks, Linda!): a Tube Map of Queer Authors put together by the Barbican & Community Libraries, London.

    As usual, they’ve mischaracterised me/my work—I should be on a nexus point between the red, yellow, green, and blue lines—and if I had to be connected to only one line, it should be the red one—after all, I’ve written many more non-SFF novels than SFF. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to distance myself from SFF—I love SFF!—but it’s only part of what I do. Having said that, look at where SFF is placed—the smallest line, looped and self-contained, as though SFF has no influence on (or is influenced by) any other literature. Always relegated to the back corner of the store… Or, well, fuck it, no. Let say sui generis (if a whole genre can be singular).

    But, hey, it’s a cool map. And I can’t blame the map makers, really—I mean every critic/reviewer and her mother gets confused about what I write; it’s why I hired publicists last year. Sadly, not even they could turn that liner, steaming majestically ahead on its own course 🙄 Oh, well.

    As I say, though, still cool: filling the sandwich of Arthur C. Clarke and Octavia Butler. And hey, how could one possibly complain about being on the bottom line of everything, alongside Sappho??

    "Moi je dis que je fais du tunning avec mon corps. Comme des tatouages.
    […]
    La société dans laquelle on vit met une énorme emphase sur le genre. […] je pense que tout le monde est un peu #trans sur les bord, à partir du moment où on se décale un peu de la définition très cadrée de la norme.
    […]
    Le #genre est un spectre. Homme et femme sont les bouts du spectre, hyperféminité, hypermasculinité, #TiboInShape […] au milieu de ça, il y a mille et une manières : en fait la non binarité prend tout ce qu'il y a entre les deux."

  30. A quotation from Madeleine L'Engle

    The writer whose words are going to be read by children has a heavy responsibility. And yet, despite the undeniable fact that the children’s minds are tender, they are also far more tough than many people realize, and they have an openness and an ability to grapple with difficult concepts which many adults have lost. Writers of children’s literature are set apart by their willingness to confront difficult questions.

    Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) American writer
    Speech (1983-11-16), “Dare To Be Creative,” Lecture, Library of Congress, Washington, DC

  32. Jeg skal undervise det her kursus hele foråret. Det er egentlig et resultat af flere uheld, at det er endt med netop dette.

    Men når dét er sagt, så har jeg svært ved at komme på et kursus, der ligger bedre for mig. Det bliver SÅ sjov.

  33. "Som Høielofts-Sale,
    Hvis Buer hensmuldre,
    Kun reist til at prale,
    Mens Hamrene buldre,
    Saa skryller al Tale
    Paa Munds-Veirets Skuldre,
    Naar Aanden ei, den Levende,
    Besjæler Tunge-Maalet!"

    Hmmm ... må hellere slå "skrylle" op ... Ok, ODS, hvad har du?

    "uden for dial. næsten kun hos Grundtv. og hans nærmeste efterlignere".

    ... Ja, det burde jeg jo have sagt mig selv ...

    Ordet ser i øvrigt ud til cirka at betyde "bluffe".

  34. Jeg er jo slet ikke færdig, men efter at have læst mange Grundtvigsalmer, som aldrig er kommet videre til danske salmebøger, følgende kontrafaktiske tese:

    Hvis Grundtvig ikke havde skrevet en eneste af de salmer, som faktisk ER blevet optaget i en dansk salmebog, men kun dem der ikke er, ville hans status som salmedigter have været helt den samme.

    Der er så mange fremragende tekster og fremragende formuleringer, som er så godt som ukendte i dag.

  35. "Je me sens beaucoup plus en sécurité paradoxalement dans le 18e [NB : qu’à Courbevoie], même y’a de quoi avoir peur parfois (rires). Parce que là-bas, c’est tellement mort, les gens s’en foutent, ils sont indifférents, le jour où il t’arrive un truc personne ne va venir te porter secours, parce que les gens ne veulent pas se mêler de ce qui ne les regarde pas (Zineb, 33 ans, architecte, Marx Dormoy)."

    Aviciis "Hey Brother" er sunget af Dan Tyminski, som også er stemmen bag George Clooney, når han "synger" "Man of Constant Sorrow" i filmen "O Brother, Where Art Thou?"

    Der er noget tilfredsstillende for en genrespecialist i denne uptake-kæde. Uptakes have long memories, og det her er at blive gammel på den gode måde.
