Interzone report: august-september 2006

 

French version

Previous report of  July 2006

Next report of October-November 2006

 

For the new comers: The reports of Interzone contain the monthly activities of the members of the group in different domains. As we are about 400 people in the world, all different, the whole might appear at first sight as an incongruous medley. For more information on the subjects developed here, please refer to the previous reports since 1997 in the page Information on Interzone

 

 

" Escapeze "

by Paul O'Donovan

 

Hi all,

 

This month has been very busy : I have quit a job and got another one, have got friends here for the holidays, created a new site of general semantics, got a camescope and started to make some videos. I have not found time to write the report sooner, though the Interzone news http://blog.myspace.com/interzonenews have been posted in the blog regularly: you can access to them from the front page of the Western Lands at http://www.interpc.fr/mapage/westernlands/  

In the news:

 * From Ricardo Mbarkho <ricardombarkho@yahoo.com> the expo "Vues de Beyrouth" B-312 Gallery, Montréal - Canada September 9 to October 14, 2006. Ziad Antar & Marc Casal Liotier-Mireille Eid Astore-Mansour El-Habre-Khaled Ramadan-Rima Saab-Louma Salamé-Shawki Youssef-Akram Zaatari Curators: Ricardo Mbarkho Wadih Safieddine URL http://www.galerieb-312.qc.ca/html/expo_beyrouth.html Videos from Beirut artists during the recent war : http://www.beirutletters.org/

* New Orleans: Screening: Gordon Soderberg's "Walkin to New Orleans" : Christopher C. Brown http://www.myspace.com/christophercbrown Saturday Aug 12, 2006 at 7:30 PM Zeitgeist Theater 1724 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd New Orleans , LA 70113 US : Walkin to New Orleans": Screening: Gordon Soderberg's "Walkin to New Orleans" a political film about a march to New Orleans, in the name of PEACE. Academy project: Dylan Claydon has left England recently with his family, wife and kids, to traval through France and find a place to live. He is sending me the following mail to transmit to the Zone :

"We're in the Tarn et Garonne travelling with caravan,van and yurt having been on the road for about three months now. Staying with Brigitte Tichane of "Enfants D'Abord" where there has just been a home schooling rencontre. Very interesting but have decided that we don't want to stay here and are moving again tomorrow for near Condom.
We heard some interesting news at the meeting from a man named Eddy who is trying to get a group of families together to take over Le Cun de Larzac which I guess you've heard of and is looking for a new management team apparently. I'm not so sure that this gang is going to get things together but I'm still interested and maybe it can happen with another group if not them. I'm going to go and check it out even if Eddy and friends don't make it. They've got a lot of excellent facilities but it needs a large team I think. Some other families would be essential for us. Have you met anyone recently with kids who might be interested in this sort of thing. Could be good to use for Interzone stuff as well. If Eddy gets it sorted out I think there is some mutual ground between his gangs interests and the Academy's"

529 itemsWelcome to Naropa Poetics Audio Archives

The Naropa University Archive Project is preserving and providing access to over 5000 hours of recordings made at Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. The collection was developed under the auspices of the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics (the university's Department of Writing and Poetics) founded in 1974 by poets Anne Waldman and Allen Ginsberg. It contains readings, lectures, performances, seminars, panels and workshops conducted at Naropa by many of the leading figures of the U.S.literary avant-garde. The collection represents several generations of artists who have contributed to aesthetic and cultural change in the postmodern era. The Naropa University Archive Project seeks to enhance appreciation and understanding of post-World War II American literature and its role in social change, cultural criticism, and the literary arts through widespread dissemination of the actual voices of the poets and writers of this period. Current interest in Oriental religions, environmentalism, political activism, ethnic studies, and women's consciousness is directly indebted to the work of these New American Poets, writers and musicians. </="border: 1.00pt solid #ffffff; padding: 0.05cm"Funding for this project was provided by the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, Save America's Treasures, the GRAMMY Foundation, the Internet Archive, the Collaborative Digitization Program, and private donors. If this collection is important to you please help us preserve it with your donations.
