  1. Mistodon: yesterday we shared an image of a typewriter, and now logically we progress to #WilliamSBurroughs' 1959 #NakedLunch, whose 1991 Cronenberg film adaptation inspired the Simpsons' quote: 'I can think of at least two things wrong with that title.' The cover art of this 1992 Grove Press edition issued in the wake of the movie, adapted to #ANSIart by Cthulu, was included in last month's books-themed MIST0426 artpack collection.

  3. Naked Lunch - Arena Wien 2026-01-22

    Ein Abend, eine Sentimentalität, eine Eskalation, ein Triumph.

  4. Naked Lunch stammen aus Klagenfurt in Österreich, einer Stadt, die auf den ersten Blick nicht nach Musikmetropole klingt. Doch gerade aus dieser Abgeschiedenheit hat die Band seit den frühen Neunzigern eine unverwechselbare Sprache entwickelt. Zwölf Jahre hat es nun gedauert, bis sich Naked Lunch mit einem neuen Album zurückmelden. Lights (and a Slight Taste of […]

    In this the legendary 1978 Nova Convention, we hear interviews with organizer/poet John Giorno, followed by the uncut Nova Convention panel discussion unheard for decades. Moderator Les Levine masterfully guides panelists William S. Burroughs, Robert Anton Wilson, Timothy Leary and Brion Gysin. Listen to them re-imagining science fiction and foreseeing a culture yet to come.

    The Nova Convention was a three-day event, taking place in New York City on November 30, December 1 and December 2, 1978. Intended as a homage to William S. Burroughs, the “convention” included seminars, music performances, readings and more. Attending were an odd mixture of academics, publishers, writers, artists, punk rockers and counterculture disciples. The event had a small hitch. The organizers had announced Keith Richards’ attendance, which made the event a sellout. Richards’ last minute cancellation, however, gave the event an antagonistic oscillation between performer and audience.

    The series was originally produced by Giorno Poetry Systems for WBAI radio. The 2013 restoration comes from John Giorno’s private tapes. The effort is to restore, as completely as possible, the entire three-day event for for broadcast by the Clocktower Gallery radio station: https://clocktower.org/show/nova-convention-1978-the-third-mind

  8. I've spent many Christmases alone, and when I do I have a little tradition of buying a Hungry Man™ TV dinner from the corner store -- weirdly named "Korner Grocery #2", despite being neither on a corner nor the second incarnation.

    Then I'd have my little Salisbury steak & microwave-burnt brownie and watch a film by #canadian #scifi #horror #filmmaker #DavidCronenberg.

    My favourite #cronenberg films are:

    #NakedLunch
    #Existenz
    #TheFly
    #DeadRingers
    #Videodrome

    What are your favourite non-holiday films to watch this time of year? #joinIn

  9. For the #BookishBeats theme in this week's #JukeboxFridayNight here's a song making all kinds of references to William S. Burroughs' Naked Lunch, which I confess I've seen but not read. I also used to dance to this a lot in clubs in the mid 90s. Good memories.

  10. Some of you peeps out there may have read William S. Burroughs' Naked Lunch. It was among the last books to be officially banned by the United States government. Always a good reason to read.

    Burroughs is best known for drunkenly shooting his wife in a game of "William Tell". And abusing drugs.

    Here's a PBS Documentary from 2011 on the man. It's one hour thirty minutes, so block some time. But it's good.

  11. #HappyBirthday to American film, stage and TV actor, artist and director, #PeterWeller, born in Wisconsin #OnThisDay in 1947. Best known as the ill-fated Alex Murphy and his eponymous alter-ego in #RoboCop (1987), he has excelled as oddballs and laconic outsiders in an eclectic range of roles, notably #TheAdventuresOfBuckarooBanzaiAcrossthe8thDimension (1984), #CatChaser (1989) and as William Lee in #NakedLunch (1991).
