‘Today in our cities,

most learning occurs outside the classroom.

The sheer quantity of information conveyed by

press-mags-film-TV-radio

far exceeds

the quantity of information conveyed by

school instruction & texts.

This challenge has destroyed

the monopoly of the book as a teaching aid

& cracked the very walls of the classroom,

so suddenly,

we’re confused, baffled.”

Nothing impressed me more than Usain Bolt. Joyful on the track & a joy to watch.

I’ve never written about sports inspite of being a fan. Something rings true, too true for me to write about.

Usain Bolt however was too memorable. Soccer’s been depressing me, so much as to consider ‘82 the end of it.

Radio

I miss radio. And radio culture.

Tune in at least once a day to your favorite station and forget about your own collection.

The Executioner’s Song

Sol LeWitt, Drawing Series—Composite, Part I–IV, #1–24, A+B

“Deep in my dungeon

I welcome you here

Deep in my dungeon

I worship your fear

Deep in my dungeon

I dwell.

I do not know

if I wish you well.”

Nothing like a good restart for somethin’ I’ve left abandoned for oh so long.

I’ll try to write daily, once again, commentin’ here & there about whatever has recently broken the tedium.
