Negations: Capitalism and Schizophrenia
Ξ May 30th, 2005 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Misc |
--:--
My central contention is that late capitalism not only accelerates the flow of capital, but also accelerates the rate at which subjects assume identities. Identity formation is inextricably linked to the urge to consume, and therefore the acceleration of capitalism necessitates an increase in the rate at which individuals assume and shed identities. The internet is one of many late capitalist phenomena that allow for more flexible, rapid, and profitable mechanisms of identity formation.

"Prophet!" said I, "thing of evil! -- prophet still, if bird of devil!
Whether Tempter sent, or whatever tempest tossed thee ashore,
Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted --
On this home by Horror haunted -- tell me truly, I implore --
Is there -- is there balm in Gilead? -- tell me -- tell me, I implore!"
- Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."

(From poedecoder.com/essays/raven/ : Poe also
considered a parrot as the bird instead of the raven; however,
because of the melancholy tone, and the symbolism of ravens as
birds of ill-omen, he found the raven more suitable for the
mood in the poem (Poe, 1850). Quoth the Parrot, "Nevermore?" )

Did You Never Know?
Did you never know, long ago, how much you loved me --
That your love would never lessen and never go?
You were young then, proud and fresh-hearted,
You were too young to know.
Fate is a wind, and red leaves fly before it
Far apart, far away in the gusty time of year --
Seldom we meet now, but when I hear you speaking,
I know your secret, my dear, my dear.
- Sara Teasdale -

OUT OF TIME
A holiday thought.
My old clock used to tell the time
==== and subdivide diurnity;
but now it's lost both hands and chime
==== and only tells eternity.

Sometimes, in dark of the night
When the rain is drumming out rhythms
Of sweet loneliness and regret
On my windowed pain.
I think of you...
And the novelty oversize balloon
We'll buy together some smile filled day
At a funfair not far away
From now.
