The questions and results are unedited except for major network errors (removed). The critical frameworks summoned for this exercise were a mix of standard and less known to Anglophone criticism, and from different periods (in order): </p><p>Ranciere, Derrida, Deleuze and Guattari, Badiou, Zizek, Kristeva, Laura Mulvey, Tosaka Jun, Nishida Kitaro, Carlyle, Nietzsche, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Habermas, Sloterdijk, N. Katherine Hayles, and Donna Haraway.</p><p>The results suggest that one can with minimal embodiment of a work of art still sound it out with theory in ways that seem both somewhat sophisticated (at least stylistically) and demonstrating the limits of critical theory. </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #343541; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 0in; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;"><span face=""Segoe UI", sans-serif" style="color: white; font-size: 10.5pt;">Can you offer suggestions for presenting an installation artwork (in any museum) on the January 6th insurgency in the US? </span><span face=""Segoe UI", sans-serif" style="font-size: 10.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; border: 1pt solid rgb(217, 217, 227); caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; padding: 0in; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 15pt; padding: 0in;"><span face=""Segoe UI", sans-serif" style="font-size: 10.5pt;">Sure!

The installation "January 6th, 2021: A Day of Reckoning" exemplifies this approach by offering a nuanced and multifaceted examination of the January 6th insurgency and its aftermath, bringing together a wide range of perspectives and experiences. By incorporating video footage, audio recordings, and personal testimonies from individuals on both sides of the political divide, the installation creates a space for "dissensual" dialogue and invites viewers to consider the events of January 6th from multiple angles. At the same time, the installation's use of physical objects and quotes displayed on placards serves to challenge and disrupt the dominant narratives surrounding the insurgency, encouraging viewers to think critically about the forces at play and their own role in shaping the future of the country.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 15pt 0in 0in; padding: 0in;"><span face=""Segoe UI", sans-serif" style="font-size: 10.5pt;">In contrast to Ranciere's emphasis on the disruptive power of art, Derrida's concept of "différance" suggests that all meaning is unstable and constantly shifting, as words and symbols are always deferring to other words and symbols in a never-ending chain of signification. The installation "January 6th, 2021: A Day of Reckoning" can be seen as embodying this idea through its use of multiple media and perspectives, which create a constantly shifting and open-ended dialogue about the events of January 6th. By bringing together a wide range of voices and experiences, the installation encourages viewers to consider the complexity and multiplicity of meanings at play, and to reflect on the ways in which their own interpretations and understandings of the event are shaped by the language and symbols they encounter. Overall, the installation serves as a powerful example of how art can create spaces for critical thinking and dialogue, inviting viewers to engage with the complexities of the January 6th insurgency and its aftermath in a nuanced and open-ended way.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 0in; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 0in; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;">--<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #343541; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 0in; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;"><span face=""Segoe UI", sans-serif" style="color: white; font-size: 10.5pt;">Please analyze such as artwork, as you have described and detailed it, in a two paragraph (minimum) assessment applying the ideas of Deleuze and Guattari.</span><span face=""Segoe UI", sans-serif" style="font-size: 10.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; border: 1pt solid rgb(217, 217, 227); caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; padding: 0in; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 15pt; padding: 0in;"><span face=""Segoe UI", sans-serif" style="font-size: 10.5pt;">Sure!

The installation "January 6th, 2021: A Day of Reckoning" exemplifies this approach through its focus on the voices and experiences of individuals who may be marginalized or excluded from mainstream narratives surrounding the January 6th insurgency.

The installation "January 6th, 2021: A Day of Reckoning" can be seen as exemplifying this approach through its use of multiple media and perspectives to explore the January 6th insurgency and its aftermath. By bringing together a wide range of voices and experiences, including video footage, audio recordings, and personal testimonies, the installation invites viewers to consider the events of January 6th from multiple angles and to reflect on the ways in which technology and media may have played a role in shaping their understanding of the event.

Haldane’s <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Philosophical Basis of Biology</em> (1931), which poses questions concerning the coordination of organisms and environments.

Here are a few time-saving pointers that might help others make even better bread with confidence. They are arranged from simple to risky and nuanced.<br />
<br />
<b>1) Is your bread too dry?</b> add extra water, about 10cc more than recommended to start with. Adjust after a vote. (If it is unbaked, too much was added; if it doesn't make you want to tear a piece off and lay it across your tongue, try adding more.)<br />
<br />
<b>2) Add extra yeast </b>when the weather is colder or you add exotic low-gluten ingredients (such as soy flour, whole wheat flour, oats, anything). (You may also use<b> high-gluten bread flour</b> to offset the difficulty in using whole wheat flour, though I know I'm not swimming with the tide on this one. In Taiwan, we actually each pickled gluten with peanuts. Try it, if you are allergy-free on this one.)<br />
<br />
<b>3) Is your bread texture or taste too boring, too bland? </b>Or do you want to <b>sweeten it up?</b> Add one or more of the following ingredients, or mix and match (heck, add them all, to taste: go for it--it won't be the end of the world--you might be pleasantly surprised!):<br />
<br />
<b>Bland-busting options:</b><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>finely shredded coconut (not too coarse, not coconut flour)</li>
<ul>
<li>really makes it more filling (stick to your ribs) as well as offer a second texture</li>
</ul>
<li>cinnamon (at least a tablespoon and you won't regret it)</li>
<li>nutmeg (be more cautious with this one)</li>
<ul>
<li>I destroyed a pie once by adding the recipe's standard dosage. It all boils down to respecting freshly ground nutmeg, whether slivered off the nut or spooned out of a tin.</li>
</ul>
<li>chopped or slivered almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds</li>
<li>dried fruit/raisins: grape or cranberry raisins; chopped figs </li>
</ul>
<br />
<b>The sweetening subset:</b><br />
<ul>
<li>vanilla</li>
<li>cocoa powder (to taste: two tablespoons to a quarter cup)</li>
<li>extra butter (double or triple your bread machine's recommended amount)</li>
<ul>
<li>If you go too far with the butter, hold back on adding extra water will help keep the dough from becoming dense and uncooperative with the yeast. </li>
</ul>
<li>extra sugar (cane sugar recommended) (double, triple, or quadruple bread machine's recommended amount)</li>
</ul>
<b>4) When to add the extras like nuts and raisins? </b>While coconuts flakes, soy flour, cocoa powder goes in with the mix from the get-go, the big stuff comes later. My machine beeps and gives me a couple minutes to dump in a measly 50g of it--<i>intolerable and defeating the purpose of having a bread machine! </i>Instead, in order to make as healthy, moist, and nutritious as one dreams, I suggest adding the extra big stuff about 10 or 15 minutes after pressing start--the ball of dough should already have been formed and smooth. Dump it all in, and before it rattles around too much, with a sturdy spatula press down on the ball so that it is torn from below by the moving blade <i><b>(be careful and use judgement).</b></i> Repeat this until most of the dry extra big stuff is on its way to being integrated in the ball of dough. Don't worry; it will still rise (fingers crossed). <br />
<br />
<b>5) Don't forget salt! </b>I'm not a fan myself, but you need it for bread to stay tasty, and the yeast needs it (for whatever yeast do with it when they aren't gorging on the sugar).<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "minionpro"; font-size: 9pt;">Abstract: This brief examination of treatments of nothingness-oriented dialectics in Kyoto School philosophers Nishida Kitarō and Tanabe Hajime engages questions of space from Hegel to quantum mechanics. It begins to situate their work in light of Emmanuel Levinas’s writings on empty space and as overlooked contributions to the philosophy of science.</span><br />

<br /><br />Although hard to prove, John Ashbery seems to have written “Upstate Dancers” (collected in <i>Planisphere</i>, 2009) as a bitter reply to someone emulating him. He even includes the line "Sometimes a stench decides everything", an image that indeed closes the second poem above.<br /><br /><i>Exquisite Corpse</i> (which closed shop in 2015) seems offline now, so I though I'd put the poems up here. <br /><br />Dean Brink 包德樂http://www.blogger.com/profile/04064392318293821794noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6124062354152929997.post-27326847490027109042019-08-16T09:15:00.000+08:002019-08-16T09:15:14.993+08:00"True East" (poem) appearing in Cordite Poetry Review<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My poem was selected by the guest editor for a no-theme issues of <i>Cordite Poetry Review</i>, <span id="m_-9016524032820842191m_-5848928792813564546gmail-docs-internal-guid-78006f46-7fff-dccf-688d-33bb4a6600de"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Claire Gaskin. </span></span></span>

<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Here is the recipe (slightly modified), translated to English from the Chinese version of the manual:</span><br />
<b><br /></b>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Ingredients</b></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>milk</b> 100ml</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>egg</b> 50g (1egg)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>high-gluten flour </b>160g</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>low-gluten flour </b>160g</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>sugar</b> 64g</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>salt</b> 2g</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>butter</b> 90g</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>ordinary yeast</b> (dry instant yeast) 8.4g</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>cinnamon</b> 1g</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>nutmeg</b> 1g</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Beat the egg and mix it with the milk, then, right before pouring the mix into the machine, mix it altogether with the dry ingredients and butter using a soft spatula that you can use later if any batter sticks beyond the reach of the flapper at the bottom of the machine mixer-container. The milk, egg, and butter should all be set out or heated to room temperature so that the yeast can get to work right away. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Nine minutes after pressing "start," a buzzer will beep, and then add a <b><i>mixture of nuts and dried fruit</i></b>:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>sliced almonds</b> 50g </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I used freshly slice-chopped unsalted almonds. All the nuts and fruits were from health food stores here in Taiwan.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>raisins </b>180g</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>dried fruit mix</b> 80g<b> </b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">For
the fruit, I followed the 180g of <i>raisins</i>, and divided the other dried
fruits between dried <i>figs</i> (30g) and <i>dried cranberries</i> (50g). The figs came through, with the fresh nutmeg, glorious.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I didn't have the optional <b>rum</b> on hand, so had to skip it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><i>Modifications to recipe:</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I used freshly grated (on a Japanese
metal grater used usually for fresh ginger) cinnamon and nutmeg, and
reversed the suggested proportions; there is more cinnamon than nutmeg.
(I once rendered
inedible a pumpkin pie by following the recipe to the letter.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>powdered sugar</b> (to smother over it while it cools down on a rack) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><i>Additional note: </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I
followed the recipe, and it tastes great, but with the HBK 151
breadmaker you probably need to pull it out ten minutes or so earlier
than the final buzzer (test with toothpick first). I pulled it out 8 minutes early, and note carefully
in the picture it is a bit too browned on the edges, and the lower third
of the cake is just slightly overdone (for my taste).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />

Following

engages New Materialist issues of human-nonhuman relations and

challenges to government and media obfuscation, thus broadening roles
for creative writing in ecocriticism.<br />

In fact, there was only a small package of near-organic tiny green bitter melons at the ridiculous price of about one USD. I looked online for recipes and found none that fit the ingredients available in the refrigerator. I did note the prominence of tomatoes and curries made with bitter melon and incorporated a dash of curry (my family is not as fond of spicy foods as I am) and the last sagging (perfect for sauteing) tomato. My gamble based on gut intuition (according to the recent science news that we have brains in our stomachs, and as the way to a family's heart is through the stomach) was to make cloves the featured sweet but punchy spice to pull off a delicious dish. To my own amazement, it worked!<br />
<br />
Side dish size (serves 3-4 people).<br />
<br />
<b>How to Make It</b><br />
Wash and halve the <b>bitter melons</b>. Core them with a coffee spoon. Slice it to 1/4-cm or 16th-inch wedges around the cored melons.<br />
Peel, wash, and cut the <b>red onion</b> into just <i>slightly</i> larger wedges (which look like slivers from a distance).<br />
Wash and dice the <b>tomato</b> into one-centimeter or half-inch cubes (more or less).<br />
<br />
Heat up the flat frying pan or whatever shape of metal you prefer to medium hot (so the gas flame is tickling the pan but firing up its molecules so that it will burn the saute, which is not a barbecue).<br />
Add <b>grape seed oil </b>(enough to protect the veggies you are about to toss in) and <b>olive oil</b> (because it tastes great and add variety to the lubrication).<br />
The <b>bitter melon</b> is usually hard as Masonite, so toss it in first, followed immediately by <b>all the spices</b> (see below), then <i>always </i>(more or less, pause to let it brown a tad) keep scraping and stirring with a flat (and flat-edged) steel spatula. (This of course prevents organic materials from accumulating and burning.) After they look slightly in need of company, toss in the <b>red onions</b>, noting the beauty of the color combination and how long it must wait for the tomato--a very long time (at least ten minutes).<br />
<i> It is at this stage that you may fear the saute in danger of becoming too dry and burning, yet the melon has yet to be fully cooked (I detest having to boil them ahead of time). Thus, here you need some form of liquid enhancement. Of course water is an option--no it is not; it would rob your dish of any hope of achieving panache and leave you miserable for the whole evening. Here you need cooking wine of some sort. I grabbed what I saw handy: <b>bootleg clear liquor</b> that the melons seemed to love. (Those of you struggling in 12-step programs, fear not, for the alcohol burns away leaving only a residue of the secret ingredient of all cooking: LOVE). </i><br />
Toss in the <b>tomato</b>. Stir for another 2-3 minutes.<br />
Add the <b>brown sugar</b>, stir in, and again after a minute, and it is done.<br />
Find a bowl for serving it (don't just leave it in the pan simmering into hellish sogginess).<br />
<br />
<i>Main ingredients:</i><br />
<b>Bitter green melons</b> (4-6 tiny ones that fit palm of your closed hand)<br />
<b>Red onion</b> (one small one will be enough)<br />
<b>Tomato</b> (one medium-large one or two small ones, or perhaps a dozen halved cherry tomatoes)<br />
<br />
<i>Spices:</i><br />
<b>Fresh whole cloves</b> (ten; fresh means that when you open the bag or container the smell knocks you over)<br />
<b>Curry powder </b>(a teaspoon or to taste, depending on the curry powder you prefer; I usually use the one sold in most Vietnamese restaurants)<br />
<b>Fresh ground green cardamon</b> (one teaspoon, peel them and grind the seeds in the pod, or pulverize them in a pestle/mortar)<br />
<b>Salt</b> (one teaspoon; I can't recommend sea salt anymore since it is found to have plastic crystallized in it--even in Antarctica!)<br />
<br />
Other: <br />
Bootleg plain <b>cooking liquor</b> (optional; ask your Taiwanese friends)<br />
<b>Brown sugar</b> (one and a half tablespoons or to taste; try to use organic or least processed)<br />
<b>Grape seed oil </b><br />
<b>Olive oil</b> <br />
<br />
