That last line reminds me of a bit from a William Kotzwinkle novel, 'The Fan Man'. The Fan Man has a 'Dorky Day': he repeats the word, "Dorky", over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and you get the point. For an entire chapter. Fennesz' stuff is like that: a mantra. A dorky mantra. ;) seek np: Digitonal - '23 Things Fall Apart' (track 6, 'Drencrom', sounds like a cover of Sakamoto's 'Coda'.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
