Thinking about Camera Lucida, what makes photos interesting, flickr's interestingness algorithm. Mostly things picked out by that aren't interesting at all, like ad photos, heavily photoshopped, garish, sentimental.

Thinking about Komar & Melamid, Distinction.

Thinking about Barthes, hit by a car, unable to speak for what was it?- a month?- before his death.

Thinking about being inappropriately used, never had much use for propriety, much problem with being used. The reality is, bang a sensitive instrument on the table & it goes out of whack, no sensors seem too terribly damaged, recalibrating.

Thinking about psychodynamics, the transference, The Function of the Orgasm, The Mass Psychology of Fascism.

Thinking I should really get that Deleuze Cinema group going, should probably be web based given the size & distribution of the likely audience, might make a nice little programming/customization project.

Thinking about picking up new, complete translation of Ecrits Amazon recommended to me yesterday.
