Aliás, pretender analisar o mundo sem experimentar a ardência das suas ironias equivale a desejar fitar o sol de frente sem sofrer ofuscação. No âmbito das &lt;a href="http://www.estadodomundo.gulbenkian.pt/index.htm?no=10201143"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)"&gt;Grandes Lições&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; aguardava-se com sublinhada curiosidade a dissertação de &lt;a href="http://www.estadodomundo.gulbenkian.pt/index.htm?no=10201122"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)"&gt;Paul D. Miller&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, o renomado dj Spooky, sobre a reconfiguração do mapa sónico a par da revolução tecno-digital. Reside precisamente aí a figura de estilo. Sinal dos tempos, a lição de Miller estava já disponível no &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGzaej_VsTY"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)"&gt;You Tube&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, pelo que restava apenas saber quanto de &lt;em&gt;up grade&lt;/em&gt; traria a Lisboa. Na verdade, tratou-se de um dos mais significativos atestados sobre o &lt;em&gt;estado do mundo&lt;/em&gt; levados ao auditório 2. Não pelo conteúdo mas pelo formato e pela estratégia que lhe subjaz. A comunicação de Miller – anunciada como «tudo menos convencional» - obedece a critérios ferreamente delineados. Concebe-se como produto, marca, &lt;em&gt;ready made&lt;/em&gt;, performance, &lt;em&gt;show off&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;franchise&lt;/em&gt;, operação de marketing. Os pormenores são costurados e medidos com precisão. Impressiva a parafernália multimédia – o inevitável portátil da &lt;em&gt;Apple&lt;/em&gt;, a &lt;em&gt;table&lt;/em&gt;, o misturador, o editor de vídeo, a projecção (e manipulação) de imagens, a prestidigitação do orador, a gradual escalada dos decibéis. A injecção de inebriamento no auditório encetada logo a partir do compasso de espera de 15 minutos para lá da hora prevista para o início da conferência. 15 minutos de expectativa, de absorção osmótica de todo o aparato visual e ‘energético’ exposto, incluindo a aura nova-iorquina(&lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;if you can make it there you can make it anywhere&lt;/span&gt;) de &lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/djspooky"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)"&gt;Spooky&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, impávido e sereno a um canto debruçado sobre o seu &lt;em&gt;Mac&lt;/em&gt;, supostamente ultimando as pontas da sessão, enquanto a música ambiente seleccionada tempera o público e funciona como &lt;em&gt;apetizer&lt;/em&gt; ritualista. Deve ter-se informado sobre o apego português a um &lt;em&gt;delayzito*&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:100%;"&gt;Miller levanta-se. «Ok».Tem início a lição. «Ok», é palavra que mais se ouvirá ao longo de uma hora. Após 15 minutos de espera, e convenientemente afundados nos assentos, os 'espectadores' merecem ser gratificados. Minúsculo simulácro do programa de &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Ophra&lt;/span&gt;. A plateia manifesta contentamento, ainda que subtil. São distribuídas cópias de 4 cds cada qual com remisturas em torno de um estilo musical específico. Miller sugere que, consoante os gostos, as pessoas troquem cds entre si. Na missa católica há também um momento em que o padre 'ordena' aos fiéis a permuta de beijinhos e abraços. Isto desemboca tudo no mesmo. Na ideia de comunidade, de partilha. Gratuitidade. É o que define esta era da globalização, do digital e &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;downloads &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;ilegais&lt;/span&gt;, diz Miller. Como se tivesse lido sobre as profecias de Agostinho da Silva. Miller evoca uma dezena de pensadores cruciais - &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Kant&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Baudrillard&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Benjamin&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Adorno&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;McLuhan&lt;/span&gt;... - mas não de modo elaborado. No formato em que prelecciona não tem cabimento o entrelaçar jubiloso de teses citadas e o seu próprio pensamento. As citações eclodem como &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_loop"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153); FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;loops&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Quote to impress&lt;/span&gt;. É a lógica da colagem, da montagem. É o que lhe interessa. A colagem, a fragmentação, a decomposição, a recomposição. O passado é esgravatado a eito em busca de referências que sustentem e adornem conceptualmente a sua opção artística. &lt;a style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)" href="http://csunix1.lvc.edu/~snyder/em/russolo.html"&gt;Futuristas&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcel_Duchamp"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)"&gt;surrealistas&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, dadaistas, cubistas, &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;beatniks&lt;/span&gt;, o &lt;a style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaaY2eQ1Lv4"&gt;cinema&lt;/a&gt;, a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eadweard_Muybridge"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)"&gt;fotografia&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt; Ah, e Warhol. Warhol e o primado da &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="FONT-FAMILY: georgia" href="http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/05/repetition-in-addition-to-his-famous.html"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)"&gt;repetição&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;. [DESVIO OPCIONAL]. O mundo nunca foi tão repetitivo. Notícias repetidas à exaustão 24 sobre 24. Séries e programas televisivos fractalmente repetidos. Canais vocacionados em exclusivo para reposições. Reciclar o lixo. Clonar políticas. 'Franchisar' oportunidades. Uniformizar espaços. Se a terra é tão vasta e diversa porquê tanta repetição?[Fim de DESVIO OPCIONAL]. Aquando deste desvio reflexivo e concomitante observação de um passarinho saltitante no jardim, Miller terá evocado Nietzsche, não se podendo assegurar que o tenha feito a propósito do &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="FONT-FAMILY: georgia" href="http://66.102.9.104/search?q=cache:HrU1YO8fCG8J:pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eterno_retorno+eterno+retorno&amp;hl=pt-PT&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;ct=clnk&amp;cd=1&amp;amp;gl=pt&amp;client=firefox-a"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)"&gt;eterno retorno&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:11;color:black;"&gt;&lt;?xml:namespace prefix = o /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;A tecnologia criou dispositivos descomunalmente capacitados para o armazenamento de informação. O espaço de armazenamento é ilimitado, não o de exibição. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Os conteúdos são editados ou validados segundo cálculos de impacto e um ensopado multivitaminado de critérios electivos.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt; A redefinição do espaço de exibição consubstancia uma das reviravoltas de proa deste século. Democratiza-se o sistema, bipolariza-se o processo comunicacional, enaltece Miller. O receptor detém agora o poder, mercê das novas tecnologias, de reeditar a mensagem e reenviá-la ao primeiro emissor e demais destinatários. Mas Miller expurga do seu discurso as evidências de conflito, as contradições éticas inerentes ao processo. E tem obrigação de confrontá-las não enquanto artista mas como analista. Acontece que ambos se mobilizam unicamente em função dos interesses do artista. O analista colecta argumentos no intuito de caucionar o ofício do criativo. A isso chama-se estratégia de marketing. Afinal, Miller publicita-se a si próprio e ao seu &lt;a href="http://mitpress.mit.edu/catalog/item/default.asp?ttype=2&amp;amp;tid=10060"&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,153,153)"&gt;livro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.

Reputation now comes only from repetition. It is not pious nostalgia to point out that we are evacuating our values of meaning: reputation once meant character; fame once meant honour. The old studio system was no slouch at exploitation, but Hollywood once made movie stars by creating franchises out of personality; now it creates franchises out of spin-offs. We live in a world of derivatives, and Warhol's many Marilyns helped get us there. The price we continue to pay for them is not really £14m. It's that we can no longer tell the difference.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-5189754380980304796?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/5189754380980304796'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/5189754380980304796'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/05/repetition-in-addition-to-his-famous.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-6774213388627495040</id><published>2007-05-28T08:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T12:38:24.604-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Hands&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RltXLUiKQ4I/AAAAAAAAAHg/cimjj7Agw6g/s1600-h/dizzy.herb+ritts.1989.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5069741657537790850" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RltXLUiKQ4I/AAAAAAAAAHg/cimjj7Agw6g/s320/dizzy.herb+ritts.1989.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RltXLkiKQ5I/AAAAAAAAAHo/ZQo7YGb_MxI/s1600-h/miles+davis.+irving+penn.1986.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5069741661832758162" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RltXLkiKQ5I/AAAAAAAAAHo/ZQo7YGb_MxI/s320/miles+davis.+irving+penn.1986.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RltXLUiKQ4I/AAAAAAAAAHg/cimjj7Agw6g/s1600-h/dizzy.herb+ritts.1989.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Não voltaremos a levar as mãos ao rosto. Ao mínimo ensaio seremos alcunhados de copistas, cábulas, plagiários, falsários. O músico de jazz que volte a poisar as mãos sobre as faces será impiedosamente votado ao ostracismo, vexado por melómanos, escorraçado da indústria, rasurado da história. Miles Davis e Dizzy Gillespie esgotaram o filão. Uma guerra travada palmo a palmo entre três titãs. Um &lt;em&gt;sprint&lt;/em&gt; renhido, dirimido à unha. Em causa estava a máxima sublimação  do &lt;em&gt;rosto&lt;/em&gt; do jazz. O fotógrafo não se compraz e completa como singelo tecnicista. É director, encenador, compositor, coreógrafo. O seu génio afere-se sopesando detalhes ínfimos. Milimétricos. Uma bochecha enfunada, a pele arrepanhada, mãos um nada mais acima, dedos longilíneos ou roliços, olhos arregalados, semicerrados ou comprimidos, o labor da luz sobre o carácter da cútis, a sugestão de pudicícia, deslumbramento ou transe criativo. Em suma, o drama que trespassa a composição. Prova-o a &lt;a href="http://www.corbijn.co.uk/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#999999;"&gt;nota&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; de Corbijn. Penn suplanta Corbijn. Quatro anos depois o holandês descobre-se de novo superado por Ritts. A distorção subjectiva do olhar impera escandalosamente na ordenação deste pódio.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-6774213388627495040?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/6774213388627495040'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/6774213388627495040'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/05/hands-no-voltaremos-levar-as-mos-ao.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RltXLUiKQ4I/AAAAAAAAAHg/cimjj7Agw6g/s72-c/dizzy.herb+ritts.1989.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-5803759525256635488</id><published>2007-05-27T05:35:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T12:38:24.830-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Finger&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RlmIaUiKQ0I/AAAAAAAAAG8/H9gVb7VjakE/s1600-h/ad.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5069232841352168258" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RlmIaUiKQ0I/AAAAAAAAAG8/H9gVb7VjakE/s400/ad.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Olhar dócil e sorriso livre. O pior são as mãos. Testemunhas de histórias inscritas num corpo esquivo aos azedumes de uma cidade intraduzível. As conveniências humanas e simbólicas da cidade escapam-lhes constantemente, como névoas. Como a palavra debaixo da língua que não ascende ao cérebro. Os dedos enrolam uma lasca de pedra lunar que imprime em seguida um curso volante aos sentidos.

Ao que consta Badram fora impedido de deslocar-se a Lisboa pelas autoridades de Amã. Daí resultariam por certo pungentes reflexões sobre &lt;em&gt;lugares e suas narrativas&lt;/em&gt;. Quanto a sub-narrativas, releve-se o facto de nada de substantivo se encontrar via &lt;em&gt;Google&lt;/em&gt; ou &lt;em&gt;Wikipedia&lt;/em&gt; sobre este proeminente(segundo o site do Estado do Mundo) arquitecto e professor jordano.

Com isso e com a comida. Sempre a comida. Num velho fumeiro feito de tábuas encontraram um presunto pendurado num recanto alto. Parecia desenterrado de uma sepultura, de tão ressequido e mirrado. Ele cortou um bocado com a faca. A carne era vermelho-escura e salgada, com sabor intenso e agradável. Nessa noite, fritaram grossas fatias na fogueira e depois cozinharam-nas em lume brando com uma lata de feijão. Mais tarde, ele acordou nas trevas e pareceu-lhe ter ouvido grandes tambores tribais a rufarem algures nos montes escuros.

Não há demasiado tempo um tipo novo reiterava o difícil, senão o impossível, que é ser-se amigo de um grande escritor. A ideia mil vezes estucada de que a psique de cada escritor fenomenal comporta um arrozal de idiossincrasias insuportáveis. Ou estoutra ainda. A de que a vil companhia de jornalistas e psiquiatras é de longe preferível à proximidade de escritores, canibais ficcionistas para quem todos, em particular os íntimos, constituem presas indefensas de todo irresistíveis. Há tempo suficiente para que o registo já se tenha varrido das placas de memória de curta duração dos telespectadores, o labirinto de genialidades e peculiaridades temperamentais que dá pelo nome de António Lobo Antunes declinava a mais remota hipótese de partilhar a casa com uma escritora. Explicou-se. De novo o pavor das idiossincrasias e obsessões advinháveis entre escritores.

Por exemplo, levá-lo a regressar contrafeito - mais ainda, bastante mais - ao local de trabalho e se possível compeli-lo a despedir-se - a menos, óbvio, que o emprego seja ele próprio uma obra-prima. De um livro fora de série, vaticina, espera-se que tenha o poder de bulir com as vísceras do ser humano, de condicionar-lhe o destino. Obras suas, assegura, levaram dezenas de jovens a partir. A partir, simplesmente. Alguns abandonando para sempre comodidades burguesas. Enquanto isso o autor permaneceu acoitado na mesma pensão parisiense décadas a fio languidamente entregue à mitificação de si mesmo como escritor preguiçoso. Uma frase ao amanhecer e o resto do dia cinzelando-a,&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;gabava-se.

That logic really is global in the sense that it has absorbed all negativities, including the humanist, universalist resistance, etc. Pushing to the limit means acknowledging this irreversibility and pushing it to the limit of its possibilities, to the point of collapse. Bringing it to saturation point, to the point where the system itself creates the accident. Thought contributes to this acceleration.

- fora já glosada a torto e a direito, a propósito de quase tudo, mas nunca, assim sugerem os registos, a propósito do broche. De facto, o &lt;em&gt;slogan&lt;/em&gt; esgalhado por Pessoa define exactamente o processo de adaptação ao &lt;em&gt;fellatio&lt;/em&gt;, encarado sobretudo do ponto de vista feminino. Regra geral(estatística pessoal e inalienável), na estreia estranham. Abocanham timoratas o falo, manuseiam-no segundo um combinado de pudor, ansiedade e nojo, arreliam-no desastradas com os dentes, titilam a glande com a língua espetada qual bezerras, esboçam esgares dilemáticos, emulam ao ridículo fragmentos retidos de filmes pornográficos. Hesitam entre manter os olhos abertos ou cerrados. Entre fixar os olhos, o umbigo ou a pelvis do homem. Engasgam-se, tossicam. Soltam risotas e soluços encavacados. Queixam-se da boca seca, do sufoco decorrente da pressão exercida pela mão do homem contra a nuca e de dores mandibulares. Embaraçadas, recalcitrantes, acossadas por supostos bloqueios morais, desistem. Assumem-se incapazes, não vocacionadas para o acto. São de novo tentadas, cedem e novamente desistem. Três dias decorridos(nos casos mais morosos), e afinal, é como se o tivessem executado toda a vida. Mistério dos mistérios, a coisa ganha voluntarismo, alma, avidez, arte, língua, saliva, volúpia, fome. Pior, torna-se-lhes indispensável. &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JytSZFL3_g"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#999999;"&gt;Um vício&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-7723074981016195316?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/7723074981016195316'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/7723074981016195316'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/05/blow-job-definio-pessoana-da-coca-cola.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RkYWTQ6D6VI/AAAAAAAAADM/07BvYYjmm_E/s72-c/City+In+The+City.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-4772785680194218768</id><published>2007-05-08T07:11:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T12:38:28.091-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Women/&lt;/strong&gt;slow resolution&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RkCF7g6D6TI/AAAAAAAAAC8/S1uF3vaCctc/s1600-h/DSCF5623....JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5062193238656674098" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RkCF7g6D6TI/AAAAAAAAAC8/S1uF3vaCctc/s400/DSCF5623....JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-4772785680194218768?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/4772785680194218768'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/4772785680194218768'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/05/women.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RkCF7g6D6TI/AAAAAAAAAC8/S1uF3vaCctc/s72-c/DSCF5623....JPG' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-1460736026308508503</id><published>2007-05-08T07:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-05-09T09:13:25.103-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Future&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagine a memory.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-1460736026308508503?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/1460736026308508503'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/1460736026308508503'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/05/future-imagine-memory-and-do-not-take.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-1084344364353650278</id><published>2007-05-04T15:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T12:38:28.231-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Art&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RjuuYw6D6SI/AAAAAAAAAC0/Tm130DvLgtI/s1600-h/DSCF5513.a"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5060830346749405474" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RjuuYw6D6SI/AAAAAAAAAC0/Tm130DvLgtI/s400/DSCF5513.a" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Tem de haver uma escuridão total à volta da tela, para que o pintor fique hipnotizado pelo seu trabalho e pinte quase em estado de transe.

Sendo temíveis e difíceis, dizem os eruditos, os clássicos funcionam primordialmente como pontapés no rabo que nos projectam para mais elevados patamares sensoriais e intelectuais. Para uma mais funda percepção de nós próprios e da humanidade. Quem sabe movido por tal crendice insista em submeter-me aos sacrificiais rituais lyncheanos. Lynch, crendo-se inequivocamente visionário genial, adianta-se estipulando as regras do seu próprio jogo. Dita ele em que condições devemos franquear o seu cosmos. Na descida a esse reino de águas profundas, turvas e turbulentas, habitado por humanos absurdos, há que deixar no bote toda e qualquer esperança de plausibilidade suprindo-se entretanto o tórax da maior quantidade comportável de oxigénio. Será que tamanho esmero anarco-narrativo ao longo de quase três horas, por si só, predefine &lt;em&gt;Inland Empire&lt;/em&gt; como um dos seus clássicos? &lt;em&gt;Who cares&lt;/em&gt;? Amenizam o pesadelo o génio interpretativo de Laura Dern e a banda sonora, de que Lynch é aliás co-responsável.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-4234263715538847843?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/4234263715538847843'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/4234263715538847843'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/04/soundtrack-dizem-os-eruditos-que-os.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RiuTubTgtHI/AAAAAAAAACI/KOm3uKNJv8o/s72-c/lynch.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-6957017946093181870</id><published>2007-04-19T07:22:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T12:38:28.711-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Next&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/Rid8OLTgtGI/AAAAAAAAACA/J6l5H0G7SpE/s1600-h/Digitalizar0001,.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5055145689741309026" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/Rid8OLTgtGI/AAAAAAAAACA/J6l5H0G7SpE/s400/Digitalizar0001,.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-6957017946093181870?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/6957017946093181870'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/6957017946093181870'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/04/next.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/Rid8OLTgtGI/AAAAAAAAACA/J6l5H0G7SpE/s72-c/Digitalizar0001,.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-3216502451144991221</id><published>2007-04-15T07:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-04-22T18:48:30.854-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Feet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Faltam duas semanas para o Natal.

Fecho os olhos e respiro devagar.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-3216502451144991221?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/3216502451144991221'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/3216502451144991221'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/04/feet-faltam-duas-semanas-para-o-natal.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-3911707034812901465</id><published>2007-04-13T05:50:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T12:38:29.023-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1922-2007&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/Rh-arm65pdI/AAAAAAAAAB4/spgXY0iKwgk/s1600-h/vonnegut.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5052927380905633234" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/Rh-arm65pdI/AAAAAAAAAB4/spgXY0iKwgk/s400/vonnegut.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;The wonderful writer Albert Murray, who is a jazz historian and a friend of mine among other things, told me that during the era of slavery in this country - an atrocity from which we can never fully recover - the suicide rate per capita among slave owners was much higher than the suicide among slaves. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-3911707034812901465?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/3911707034812901465'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/3911707034812901465'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/04/1922-2007-wonderful-writer-albert.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/Rh-arm65pdI/AAAAAAAAAB4/spgXY0iKwgk/s72-c/vonnegut.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-4363059118322445053</id><published>2007-04-12T20:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-04-12T20:19:14.121-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Memo&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Se a alma existe?

Tropeçou mal se recorda onde e em que circunstâncias no Livro do Desassossego. Possuído sem contemplações pelo inevitável remoinho de vertigens sorveu as páginas de Soares como se em vésperas do apocalipse. Dias depois cruzou-se com um carismático rapaz do bairro, já na casa dos vinte, a quem revelou, exultante, a descoberta. Em resposta, o moço compôs um ar grave e apreensivo. Olhou-o fixamente durante alguns segundos cortando apenas o silêncio para afirmar em tom repreensor o seguinte:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;-Tu vê lá aquilo em que te metes.

O apetrechamento electro-digital e os contornos &lt;em&gt;londrinizados&lt;/em&gt; quer da música quer da persona não deixam travo a imperativo. Não se espreita ali qualquer viela futurista relevante. Mas fica-lhe bem a irrequietude discursiva comprovada umas quantas semanas atrás em entrevista televisiva. Num país de entrevistados servis e submissos soube a pouco ver uma jovem sem papas na língua, nem constrangimentos de espécie alguma frente às câmaras, rebater veemente o chorrilho de lugares comuns papagueado pela anfitriã. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Entrevistadora - &lt;em&gt;Mas o Brasil há muitos anos que está na moda...&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Entrevistada - &lt;em&gt;Qual Brasil?!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;E assim por diante.

Ultimately, the picture painted by the Unicef report was of British childhood as the 'toxic' equivalent of a nuclear-waste dump, oozing through the soil of this green and pleasant land - the makings of a true asbo nation.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-6095247678382832151?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/6095247678382832151'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/6095247678382832151'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/02/ellen-no-seu-melhor.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-4093913311708801317</id><published>2007-02-13T03:59:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T12:38:30.993-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sou pois...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RdGpDvGbHTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/5LnoxDnrias/s1600-h/mitchell.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5030988140397665586" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HtGW1F4pnvw/RdGpDvGbHTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/5LnoxDnrias/s400/mitchell.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Dos interstícios literários do &lt;em&gt;sub-género&lt;/em&gt;

Switzerland is where the great ones of the world gather to sniff each other's aftershave. There you find more ego-stroking, back-scratching and mutual grooming than in the average colony of jungle apes. So when politicians, editors and tycoons excitedly echo one another in hailing the new democracy of the internet, and promise that it is upending the old order, a little scepticism is required. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,,2000820,00.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If they really thought they were about to be overthrown by bloggers, would they sound quite so cheerful about it?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;O&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;wit&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; anglo-saxónico tem dessas coisas.Esta magnífica entrada -&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;there you find more ego-stroking, back-scratching and mutual grooming than in the average colony of jungle apes&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;- poderia aplicar-se milimetricamente a certos &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;barrios&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; da blogosfera. Depois das crónicas de &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/12/you-spokesman-for-time-admitted-that.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Marcel Berlins&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt; e &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/12/you-ii-is-this-digital-democracy-or.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Slavoj Zizek&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;, um punho feminino. Bem mais arguta, ainda que igualmente céptica quanto aos proventos democráticos da&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;web.2,&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Jackie Ashley não sucumbe ao pessismo fácil e sobranceiro face ao putativo poder (quinto, diz-se) dos info-cidadãos. Questiona as suas reais possibilidades de eficácia participativa e &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;controleira&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; a partir da presumível indisponibilidade para tal dos reais detentores do poder. Um ornamento retórico. Ninguém acredita(por ora) numa  reviravolta radical do sistema com epicentro na internet. A&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;web&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; acrescenta, interpela, corrige, reage, interage, comenta, cria, fomenta, complementa. Não redundará numa espécie de&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;offshore&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; para políticos avessos a entrevistadores duros. Pelo contrário. Será mais um espaço de influência, mais um mercado, mais um&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;media&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;. Como tal um reduto apetecível a gestores, propagadores e criadores de poder. Assim se entende a atracção dos tradicionais titulares do poder por este novo mundo, onde tentam impor as suas próprias regras. Mas é também aí que melhor se afirma o contra-peso do cibernauta comum. A &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;web&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; é o mais&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;citizen-friendly&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;dos&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;media&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;. De resto, Jackie Ashley tritura inclemente a cebola ao enfatizar a falácia da info-inclusão no Ocidente, a existência de uma&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;vida lá fora&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;que escapa à &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;web-cidadania&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;, o quebra-cabeças dos custos da transposição dos jornais para a &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;web&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;. Questões ardentes para respostas voláteis. E, é verdade, estar sentado frente a um computador não significa necessariamente estar a debater o aquecimento global.

Não nos cinjamos a determinados parâmetros de apreciação estética. Existe uma certa bonomia fisionómica na normalidade. Nessa mixórdia de mais do mesmo e de heterogeneidade repetente que enforma a diversidade urbana. A multiplicidade de traços e linguagens corporais não será tão vasta quanto se possa julgar. Descobre-se até bastante finita. Dependendo da cidade deixamos de nos surpreender, de nos permitirmos sobressaltos, com relativa facilidade. &lt;em&gt;Puzzle&lt;/em&gt; resolvido. Venham urbes diferentes, novos rituais de habituação, nova rotina de genótipos. Tal amálgama de rostos previsíveis alberga em si algo de comovente, de belo. Nesse sentido, Lisboa é uma cidade excepcional, mui pouco exposta à ameaça de ruídos fisionómicos - gente de beleza paralisante ou de fealdade extrema. Respira-se paz. Não há necessidade de um homem munir-se de botijas de oxigénio não lhe vá falhar a respiração a qualquer instante. Lisboa é uma cidade retiro, exemplar na sua escassez de tentações físicas.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116948142775032051?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116948142775032051'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116948142775032051'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/01/peace-de-crer-que-as-pessoas-de-modo.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116938116719956129</id><published>2007-01-21T04:01:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-01-21T07:35:02.836-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;She's In&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/3101/3572/1600/764459/hillary.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/3101/3572/400/993525/hillary.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116938116719956129?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116938116719956129'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116938116719956129'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/01/shes-in.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116932776241549199</id><published>2007-01-20T13:15:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-01-20T13:16:02.426-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Post&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;It may seem odd to celebrate a prefix.

Misery, on the other hand, steels one for the future. Misery is a school for the soul. From the waters of misery one emerges on the far bank purified, strong, ready to take up again the challenges of a life of art. Yet misery does not feel a purifying bath. On the contrary, it feels like a pool of dirty water. From each new bout of misery he emerges not brighter and stronger but duller and flabier. How does it actually work, the cleasing action that misery is reputed to have?

L'espoir soulevé par la "révolution bolivarienne" expliquerait-il la popularité de son leader ? Au colloque de Sciences Po, Carlos Romero, de l'université centrale du Venezuela, &lt;strong&gt;a souligné à quel point l'"anti-impérialisme" de M. Chavez recouvre une "relation schizophrénique" basée sur l'exportation de pétrole aux Etats-Unis et l'envol des importations américaines pour satisfaire le boom de la consommation&lt;/strong&gt;. Le Venezuela importe beaucoup de whisky et de produits de luxe, tout comme les produits de première nécessité que son industrie n'est pas en mesure de pourvoir. Loin de partager l'enthousiasme de leur président à l'égard de Cuba - synonyme de stagnation économique et sociale -, les Vénézuéliens continuent à être fascinés par les Etats-Unis, dont ils apprécient le base-ball et bien d'autres choses.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Comovem-me incisões analíticas demolidoras de teses unidimensionais, reveladoras de contradições insuspeitas.

In the African Union (AU) - which has its headquarters in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa - US policy is already causing enormous confusion. For months the AU has been trying, unsuccessfully, to persuade the UN security council to bolster the AU force in Darfur, Sudan. Yet within days of Ethiopia's invasion, the security council, under US instigation, was able to pass a resolution asking for an AU force to be sent to Somalia. Clearly, the US wants to legitimise the invasion by placing it under the umbrella of the very AU that it has humiliated for months.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/story/0,,1983296,00.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;Aqui&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Se a Etiópia se presta ao papel de &lt;em&gt;puppet&lt;/em&gt; neste contexto, o mesmo poder-se-á dizer de modo agravado do Conselho de Segurança.De resto, são cada vez mais notórios os indícios de que África será provavelmente a longo prazo um dos principais palcos do antagonismo entre Ocidente e islamismo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://education.guardian.co.uk/schools/story/0,,1982440,00.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;Education could be the greatest gift the richest nations make to the poorest. The alternative is what I saw outside Abuja, in Nigeria: madrassas created by religious extremists, offering free education but fundamentalist indoctrination, filling the void created by our failure to act. Today education for all makes not just moral and economic sense, but strategic sense too&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Digamos que a história deste século ainda gatinha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116800639576564830?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116800639576564830'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116800639576564830'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2007/01/puppetscan-ethiopia-afford-to-be.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116793639256366520</id><published>2007-01-04T10:25:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-01-05T06:36:24.943-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Verbo objecto&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Em caso de urgência.Funil.

Slavoj Zizek,&lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,,1980156,00.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;aqui&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.Uma análise, diga-se sem peias, banal e retorcida. Para além ázimo Zizek repete-se ao recuperar o que será provavelmente o seu parágrafo mais célebre - o tal da &lt;em&gt;sociedade descafeinada&lt;/em&gt;. Chega a ser confrangedor deparar com tais reservas face ao ciberespaço. Esta tendência para vergastar as fragilidades do meio em prejuízo dos seus múltiplos benefícios, por sinal largamente insofismáveis. Zizek sugere que o grosso da fauna &lt;em&gt;web&lt;/em&gt; deforma o ideal democrático engendrando um hediondo e circular jogo de espelhos identitários.Ou seja, encena na internet o que não é na vida real. Mas afinal, que esfera do social, ou do real, se encontra a salvo da comparência de seres malfeitores, mal intencionados e dissimulados. Que coordenadas da realidade não sao afrontadas por gatos travestidos de lebres? Não será a &lt;em&gt;web&lt;/em&gt; o reflexo amplificado dessa casa de espelhos primeva. Não pediam os monarcas aos seus retratistas que apoucassem as suas debilidades físicas? Não dispõem os políticos de séquitos de assessores responsáveis pelo esbatimento aos olhos do público de traços menos eloquentes da sua personalidade?Quantas gatas borralheiras?Quantos tomados por pais de família exemplares revelaram-se pedófilos, violadores, assassinos, crápulas?Não é a história da História também um chorrilho de manipulações e simulácros? &lt;em&gt;What's new about the web?&lt;/em&gt; Porque será tão mais cómodo atacar as fissuras éticas da &lt;em&gt;web&lt;/em&gt; do que as hipocrisias crónicas do &lt;em&gt;real&lt;/em&gt;?

Solução de recurso a bem da psique americana, tão amolgada pela derrota militar no Iraque e pelo atoleiro afegão.Contudo, uma vez homenageado o formigueiro internético, creio não haver razões de monta para que Marcel Berlins manifeste tamanho desdém pelos voluntariosos anónimos(grosso modo) que alimentam o caudal de conteúdos da &lt;em&gt;web&lt;/em&gt;. É evidente a sua influência sobre os &lt;em&gt;media&lt;/em&gt; tradicionais. É evidente que minoram a relevância de certos mediadores na pirâmide comunicacional e na transmissão do saber. É óbvio que encetaram novos índices escrutínio, democraticidade e comunitarismo. Inegável que imprimiram maior velocidade à reacção aos acontecimentos e alteraram práticas jornalísticas. Etc. Indiscutível que nada disso está imune a debates e críticas. Inquestionável a existência de esquinas muito mal iluminadas na &lt;em&gt;cibertrópole&lt;/em&gt;. Mas os ganhos são descomunais. &lt;em&gt;What's so great about 'ordinary' people? &lt;/em&gt;Marcel Berlins poderia começar por atentar no uso que o jornal em que escreve já faz do &lt;a href="http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/music/2006/12/blog_top_50.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#999999;"&gt;You Tube&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116673390924378879?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116673390924378879'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116673390924378879'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/12/you-spokesman-for-time-admitted-that.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116603264527794846</id><published>2006-12-13T06:37:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-28T11:40:11.160-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;A vitória de Pinochet&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/3101/3572/1600/616640/CASTRO-Y-PINOCHET-DE-PIE.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/3101/3572/400/563088/CASTRO-Y-PINOCHET-DE-PIE.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;O debate entre esquerda e direita por vezes mais se assemelha a um jogo de garotos prenhes de soberba, pertinazes até ao absurdo na defesa dos seus pontos de vista. Há semanas John Leguizamo, protagonista de &lt;em&gt;Summer of Sam&lt;/em&gt;, de Spike Lee, foi ao programa de Conan O'Brien publicitar o livro em que faz uma súmula dos episódios mais hilariantes da sua carreira e desvenda um ramalhete de ridículos providenciados por colegas de profissão. Uma das bizarrias leva a assinatura do inigualável Steven Seagal. Conta Leguizamo que a meio de certo filme Seagal não quis morrer apesar do guião assim o determinar. Na rodagem da cena em que era pressuposto morrer Seagal desfez-se numa birra digna de diva, alegando que os seus fãs não esperam vê-lo cair em combate. A equipa foi apanhada de surpresa, as máquinas pararam, convocou-se o gabinete de crise, e depois Seagal acabou mesmo por ter que fenecer. Ora, no debate esquerda-direita, muitas vezes mais do que argumentos esgrimem-se egos, orgulhos, obstinações, honras, caprichos.Foi o que se viu com a morte de Pinochet.Vá-se lá entender as manifestações de júbilo e contentamento pela morte do homem.Provavelmente os que rejubilaram com o passamento de Pinochet mais não fizeram do que regurgitar a sua própria impotência, a sua derrota. Afinal, Pinochet viveu até aos 91 anos sem que fosse beliscado pelos crimes que apadrinhara.Para escapulir-se às maçadas da justiça invocou para si o que recusara a milhares de chilenos - direitos humanos.E com uma sarcástica piscadela de olho, morreu,de velho e em paz, no dia mundial dos direitos humanos.O que uma parte dos chilenos(e alguma esquerda europeia) festejou foi apenas o desaparecimento tranquilo e natural de um fantasma, de um espectro, contra o qual nada pôde em tempo útil.Os festejos foram, portanto, tão só catárticos. A catarse possível aos derrotados. &lt;a href="http://gloriafacil.blogspot.com/2006/12/chilenos-ii.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;Entretanto&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, não seria de admirar que a direita vingasse as efusões de alegria pela morte de Pinochet com moeda similar aquando da tão desejada morte de Fidel Castro. Mas, não existirão diferenças simbólicas significativas entre a morte de um e outro?O que a direita mais almeja celebrar com a morte de Fidel não é o potencial colapso do regime?E quem garante que assim sucederá? Caso o regime prevaleça, ainda que com novas nuances, não se precipitaria a direita no abrir garrafas de champagne?Não estaria a colocar o carro funerário à frente dos bois? À semelhança dos assomos de euforia em Santiago, de que serviriam cortejos de carros alegóricos em Miami, se em Havana tudo se mantivesse na mesma, ou quase?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116603264527794846?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116603264527794846'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116603264527794846'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/12/vitria-de-pinochet-o-debate-entre.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116542427927522445</id><published>2006-12-06T08:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-18T13:13:47.866-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Kramer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;dixit&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/3101/3572/1600/524517/kramer.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/3101/3572/400/907775/kramer.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Tomei conhecimento no &lt;em&gt;Guardian&lt;/em&gt; de mais um trambolhão de Cosmo Kramer(Michael Richards).Desta vez um trambolhão a sério.Desastroso. No decurso de um número de &lt;em&gt;stand-up&lt;/em&gt;, em Los Angeles,o actor/comediante que dera alma à inexcedível personagem Cosmo Kramer de &lt;em&gt;Seinfeld&lt;/em&gt;, perdeu as estribeiras e lançou-se numa diatribe racista vergonhosa e reles depois de apupado por um elemento da assistência, no caso um afro-americano. Richards não se conteve e ripostou com insultos racistas da pior índole.Por sorte(não de Richards) alguém registou o incidente com o telemóvel e depositou o filme na internet que o propagou à velocidade da luz. Richards viu-se assim em maus lençóis e forçado(o termo é propositado) a pedidos de desculpa. Na verdade o inferno está entupido desses apelos à clemência. No programa de David Letterman, Richards tentou explicar-se e retratar-se. Como era previsível pouco mais conseguiu do que embrulhar-se num manto de palavras desconexas, mostrando-se profundamente(?!) afectado e perplexo consigo próprio, tal qual um &lt;em&gt;womanizer&lt;/em&gt; de craveira que se descobre com uma erecção viçosa num balneário masculino. Richards diz-se convictamente não-racista. Como acreditar?Ao contrário de Mel Gibson, Richards não tem sequer o falso alibi do álcool. Donde terá então saído todo aquele esterco?Convenhamos que teve que sair de algum lado, nada respirável, da sua pessoa. O caso mereceu algumas linhas na blogosfera portuguesa. Por exemplo, &lt;a href="http://arrastao.weblog.com.pt/arquivo/2006/12/kramer_contra_kramer"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;aqui&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://5dias.net/2006/11/30/o-caso-kramer/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;aqui&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.Estes blogues de esquerda assumem um tom condenatório face ao despiste racista de Richards, mas partem do princípio de que Richards é no fundo um tipo porreiro que cedera a um momento de insensatez desencadeado pela fúria, como tantas vezes sucede no trânsito ou em brigas domésticas.Portanto, nada melhor do que deixar a cargo do tempo a diluição do &lt;em&gt;problema&lt;/em&gt;. O tempo fará esquecer o assunto e voltaremos a vislumbrar em Richards o não-racista que sempre aparentou ser. Os escribas do &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/tv/2006/11/seinfeld_star_goes_beyond_a_jo.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;Guardian&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt; que &lt;a href="http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/tv/2006/11/has_michael_richards_ruined_se_1.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;opinaram&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; sobre o caso foram liminarmente implacáveis com Richards, não lhe antevendo saída para a caverna em que se meteu.Creio que esta diferença de posturas muito se deve à pose portuguesa em relação a questões de racismo. Existe por aqui uma brandura, uma ambiguidade, um desviar o olhar, um encolher de ombros, uma certa complacência face a situações de racismo que, entretanto, se encaixa na crença generalizada de que o país não é racista. De resto, a estirpe de não-racistas a que pertence Michael Richards, viceja bastante por aqui.

Afinal o filme baseia-se numa peça de Plínio Marcos.Um drama centrado em duas personagens. Dois imigrantes brasileiros em Nova Iorque a quem o sonho americano teima em evidenciar-se como uma miragem macabra, independentemente da força de vontade, determinação, aptidão linguística, genica social ou idade. &lt;em&gt;Dois Perdidos Numa Noite Suja&lt;/em&gt;(2002), penúltimo(?) filme do ciclo(sábados) dedicado ao cinema brasileiro contemporâneo na RTP-2. O ciclo ter-se-á iniciado com o visto e revisto &lt;em&gt;Cidade de Deus.&lt;/em&gt; A película seguinte&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;não logrou roubar-me mais do que curtos minutos. Com &lt;em&gt;Dois Perdidos Numa Noite Suja&lt;/em&gt; era tão baixa a expectativa que foi-me necessário, primeiro, espreitar, demorar alguns segundos a sentir a força ao filme, mudar de canal, e por fim retroceder intrigado face à poética das imagens. As suspeitas confirmaram-se em pesquisa posterior. Aquela interpretação furiosa valeu a Débora Falabella o prémio de melhor actriz no Festival de Cinema de Brasília. Nos últimos anos vi apenas dois filmes brasileiros - &lt;em&gt;Cidade de Deus&lt;/em&gt; e &lt;em&gt;Carandiru&lt;/em&gt;. Infelizmente na lista de espera encontra-se ainda o célebre &lt;em&gt;Central (do) Brasil&lt;/em&gt;(que deveria constar obrigatoriamente do ciclo dado o seu propósito), com Fernanda Montenegro. Não sendo um filme badalado além-fronteiras, &lt;em&gt;Dois Perdidos Numa Noite Escura&lt;/em&gt; foi uma das tais descobertas impagáveis que a memória há-de reter e recomendar por muitos anos. Por uma lista infinda de razões faz tempo que o Brasil cessou de me surpreender, empolgar, seduzir. Mas há que saber reconhecer um achado.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116422302636891128?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116422302636891128'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116422302636891128'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/11/perdidos-teatro-e-cinema.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116334645056859820</id><published>2006-11-12T07:08:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-06-03T14:24:56.076-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bad boys&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3101/3572/1600/kirshner..jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3101/3572/400/kirshner..jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;É bem possível que incorra aqui numa suspeita precipitada, mas, depois de terem substituído o cigarro de Lucky Luke por um ramito de capim, tem-me parecido indisfarçavel o zelo de Hollywood em incrementar &lt;em&gt;heróis&lt;/em&gt; não-fumadores. Nada contra tal saneamento às mãos do anti-tabagismo fervoroso em vigor nas terras do tio Sam, e que, mais uns anos, promete mapear também o velho continente. O que causa alguma náusea ideológica é o facto de, de há uns tempos a esta parte, notar-se que no cinema norte-americano os fumadores tendem a ser cada vez mais, e apenas, os &lt;em&gt;maus&lt;/em&gt; ou&lt;em&gt; problemáticos&lt;/em&gt; da fita. O cigarro que fora outrora um traço de charme, heroísmo e distinção nos lábios de Bogart ou Clint passa a condensar de uma assentada sintomas de maldade congénita, decadência moral, fraqueza de espírito e sociopatia. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116334645056859820?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116334645056859820'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116334645056859820'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/11/bad-boys-bem-possvel-que-incorra-aqui.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116257860342337751</id><published>2006-11-03T10:25:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-06-03T13:37:52.323-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Pessimismo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3101/3572/1600/Francis%20Bacon%20Study%20for%20Self-Portrait(s??rie).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3101/3572/400/Francis%20Bacon%20Study%20for%20Self-Portrait%28s%3F%3Frie%29.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Dando de barato a sua parcela esquizofrénica, a democracia encarna o mais humano dos regimes por subordinar-se aos princípios de vigilância estóica e rotatividade cíclica dos detentores do poder político.

Detonador de manifestos verbais telúricos quando calha, mas preferindo por norma deixar a cargo do estrito caudal musical esse labor iminentemente político. É bom saber que em 2006 Byron se desdobra na feitura de dois álbuns.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116257197447074034?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116257197447074034'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116257197447074034'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/11/don-de-repente-dei-me-conta-de-que-h.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116214326457185741</id><published>2006-10-29T09:21:00.002-08:00</published><updated>2006-10-31T17:14:15.946-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Birds&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3101/3572/1600/tom%20waits.22.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3101/3572/400/tom%20waits.22.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Writing songs is like capturing birds without killing them.

Por planeta vermelho entenda-se a música urbana afro-americana, de que há muito me distanciara por força da previsibilidade rítmica e aridez lírica em que se embrenhara nos últimos largos anos, acossada por escassíssimas excepções que mais não têm feito do que tentar obturar buracos num cano perfurado em milhentos pontos, vertendo água por tudo quanto é lado, e exigindo reparações urgentes e decerto demoradas. Por pura curiosidade abeirei-me de um posto de escuta na Fnac cujos discos pareceram-me merecer ao menos um piedoso 'benefício da dúvida'. Escutei atentamente o último trabalho de Carl Hancock Rux e a obra surpreendeu-me muito para lá do expectável. Trata-se do que se pode apelidar de um álbum eloquente na substância melódica, ostentando um amplo arsenal de matizes sónicos apurados e recursos composicionais, acrescido de um registo vocal enleante. Menos encantórias, ou decisivas, serão as letras das canções. Não me sendo o nome Carl Hancock Rux de todo estranho, procurei saber um pouco mais sobre o seu acervo. Rux é um jovem esteta nova-iorquino que estende os seus préstimos de criador a domínios tão díspares quanto complementares como música, teatro, poesia, romance e ensaio. É o que se lê em qualquer nota biográfica disponível na internet. Falamos portanto de um activo em alta na bolsa de valores da &lt;em&gt;downtown&lt;/em&gt;, referência da &lt;em&gt;spoken word&lt;/em&gt; despontada no &lt;em&gt;Nuyorican Poet's Cafe&lt;/em&gt;, e pelos vistos com obra já agraciada com nomeações para e prémios propriamente ditos. Se no capítulo musical Rux é capaz de evidenciar traços de excelência, talvez o mesmo não se possa inferir de ânimo leve das suas outras incursões artísticas, daí estranhar-se o frenesi celebratório que o circunda, a menos que estejamos perante uma certa indulgência advinda de factores terceiros. Claro que o ciberespaço nem tudo nos disponibiliza, pelo que o juízo pode pecar por parcial, mas pela amostra fica-se com a sensação de que a ovação é excessiva. Da dezena de poemas acessíveis aproveita-se apenas um, em que, maliciosamente, apraz-me entrever ali pelo meio algumas linhas de coca, o que torna tudo mais hiper-real e críptico.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Just Asking&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;to live to die to die to live to be to what?

Independentemente da conta em que se tenha o líder do Bloco não se pode deixar de constatar que Louça não foi convidado para uma entrevista mas sim para uma interpelação privativa. No lugar da entrevistadora encontrava-se uma prima-dona manifestamente entrincheirada no seu credo ideológico que não se coibiu de deixar advinhar a caricatura que faria do interlocutor assim lhe fosse requisitada. Presume-se que qualquer coisa como um troglodita ideológico. Fê-lo num registo sobranceiro e leviano ao arrepio da mais elementar sebenta jornalística. Só isso explica o surrealismo de alguns momentos da entrevista. Às tantas, de molde a fazer o convidado cair em apertos, a entrevistadora saca de uma citação proveniente de fonte inexistente. Afiança que Louçã terá apelidado Belmiro de Azevedo de &lt;em&gt;mafioso&lt;/em&gt;. Louçã indaga sobre o paradeiro do apodo. Sem rede, a entrevistadora concede que se trata de um &lt;em&gt;diz-se&lt;/em&gt;...Louça replica que &lt;em&gt;muitas coisas&lt;/em&gt; são ditas a seu respeito, nomeadamente nos &lt;em&gt;blogues de direita&lt;/em&gt;. Não fosse a carapuça servir-lhe a entrevistadora assevera que não frequenta &lt;em&gt;blogues&lt;/em&gt;. Pelo tom com que o faz depreende-se que nutre pelos blogues a mais visceral aversão. Entretanto, prossegue a sanha contra Louçã. A jornalista afirma que as propostas apresentadas pelo Bloco são &lt;em&gt;irresponsáveis&lt;/em&gt;. Louçã pede ao menos &lt;em&gt;um exemplo&lt;/em&gt;. Sem munições, a entrevistadora hesita por instantes após o que dispara – &lt;em&gt;o seu tom, sempre tão zangado&lt;/em&gt;...Ao que Louçã perplexo contrapõe – &lt;em&gt;mas o tom não é proposta&lt;/em&gt;...Ainda assim Louçã não se exime de rememorar casos de injustiça social ou laboral que em seu entender justificam algumas propostas bloquistas. De novo sem contra-argumentos à vista, a cada exemplo avançado por Louçã a entrevistadora limita-se a retorquir: &lt;em&gt;não se pode tomar a árvore pela floresta&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;em&gt;Não se pode tomar a árvore pela floresta&lt;/em&gt;. A veterana jornalista partiu para a entrevista com os bolsos cheios de pedras e terminou com alfinetes espetados na lapela. Se calhar por habitarmos uma floresta luxuriante de árvores como aquela ali ao fundo certos canais não encomendam entrevistas como &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1qedUIg7sI&amp;feature=RecentlyWatched&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;page=1&amp;t=t&amp;amp;f=b"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#999999;"&gt;esta&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; apesar terem excelentes relações comerciais com a BBC.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116120330503410787?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116120330503410787'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116120330503410787'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/10/entrevista-possvelnos-ltimos-dias.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116117776736421369</id><published>2006-10-18T06:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-18T06:26:55.653-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Smile&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Broadcast journalism today promotes itself not so much on what it talks about but on the method it uses: "Broadcasting 24 hours a day, correspondents in over 50 capital cities, giving you all the headlines every 15 minutes, up to six generations of journalists gathered in one newsroom, making you feel all the news you want to feel, even on Christmas Day." Hi-tech software and speedy transmission makes everything instant news, but we lose sight of the skilled individuals who can process this random unstoppable flow of information and somehow construct a meaningful examination of it.

Pois bem, a pergunta poderia ter sido mais demolidora - você prefere fazer sexo com ou sem preservativo? Acontece que ao levar a debate um assunto como a pornografia a televisão coloca-se em posição pouco confortável. Note-se por exemplo que os telejornais têm praticamente a longevidade de um filme pornográfico(podendo-se sempre optar pelo noticiário alternativo do serviço público que tem a duração de um episódio de uma &lt;em&gt;sitcom&lt;/em&gt;). A pornografia, no limite, gera vácuo. Não se tem sensação diversa de vácuo ao ver a televisão portuguesa, mecanizada numa dinâmica de anestesiamento crítico, intelectual e até político. Poucos documentários dignos de nota(os dedicados ao &lt;em&gt;blues, &lt;/em&gt;a Bob Dylan e mais recentemente ao 11 de Setembro são excepções que sublinham a regra). Nada de entrevistas com grandes vultos mundiais da cultura e do pensamento numa era tão sedenta de interpretações inteligentes, fracturantes e inspiradoras. Nada de filmes incontornáveis, clássicos ou contemporâneos(quem os quiser que os pague no canal codificado mais próximo dado que o serviço público tem mais que fazer que assegurar este obséquio cultural num país de renda exígua para a maior parte dos seus indígenas). Em contrapartida, algo de mais ou menos novo. Excesso de frivolidade civilizacional e politiquice a rodos. Nunca houve tantos comentadores de toda a espécie a infestar canais televisivos, oriundos directa ou obliquamente de fileiras partidárias ou representantes anódinos da tal sociedade civil cujo içamento à televisão, em tempos, tantos entenderam inadiável. A televisão abriu-se ao país e fechou-se ao mundo. Transformou-se num fim social em si. Num espaço promocional sabiamente gerido pelos seus fazedores e avidamente cobiçado pelos demais. O mundo a sério pode esperar. A TV Cabo não satisfeita com a inenarrável exclusão do &lt;em&gt;Arte&lt;/em&gt; da sua grelha  deu-se ainda ao capricho de substituir o GNT pela evangélica TV Record. A ver vamos se o &lt;em&gt;Mezzo&lt;/em&gt; não tem os dias contados. Sim, porque tudo pode esperar-se deste preservativo gigante que nos domina.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116083818535177884?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116083818535177884'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116083818535177884'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/10/preservativo-quando-h-anos.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116075676504548890</id><published>2006-10-13T09:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-13T09:28:01.560-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chega de carnaval&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;embed src="http://youtube.com/v/vl5v0NRjR3M" width="425" height="350" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116075676504548890?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116075676504548890'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116075676504548890'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/10/chega-de-carnaval.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116070603618354469</id><published>2006-10-12T18:10:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-13T13:53:20.936-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Home is where the global is&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;A dissertação de Homi Bhabha foi apanhada a meio e escutada com o traseiro assente nas escadas do átrio onde um écran grande transmitia em directo o que se passava no púlpito do lotado auditório-2 da Gulbenkian. Chegado a Lisboa com a patente de general dos estudos pós-coloniais, a Bhabha coube a honra de abrir o fórum cultural &lt;em&gt;O Estado do Mundo&lt;/em&gt; que decorre na Gulbenkian ao longo do que resta deste ano e do próximo. E fê-lo bem, magistralmente até. Perpassou todas as temáticas ardentes deste conturbado e assimétrico mundo contemporâneo. Quanto à globalização, Bhabha foi lapidar ao reiterar que &lt;em&gt;a globalização começa em casa&lt;/em&gt;. Enquanto afinam estratégias de sobrevivência no rendilhado de complexidades culturais, económicas e políticas da arena internacional, os estados deveriam instruir-se nos modos de gerir divergências culturais e discrepâncias económicas, &lt;em&gt;dentro de portas&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32655484-116070603618354469?l=dawntown.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116070603618354469'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32655484/posts/default/116070603618354469'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dawntown.blogspot.com/2006/10/home-is-where-global-is-dissertao-de.html' title=''/><author><name>marco venutto</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08048199414407871847</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32655484.post-116050659543265998</id><published>2006-10-10T11:37:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-10T11:56:37.740-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Escape&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion but an escape from emotion&lt;/em&gt;, says Eliot in words he has copied into his diary.&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt; 'Poetry is not an expression of personality but an escape from personality'&lt;/span&gt;.
