Southern Boys & Northen Girls..........
Remember the song Eastern Boys & Western Girls?
A brand new and fresh idea for hiphop collective New Wave!!!!
Or for all the other pop musicians who were there, Eurosonic, city of Groningen, the Netherlands!!!!
Orrrrrrrr, are the people of Sunn O reading my blog? The American band with an absolute freedom approach. Freedom to scout and be researchly. (23Nov2015, NRC, Dutch newspaper)
Eat this:
1961 Pipo en de slaapridder / knight of dreams.
'The most beautiful road of planet Earth is not the highway of cars! Under the trees of the most beautiful road are people moving who are not in a hurry!'
How does this wisdom connects with newsitems about fast taken decisions, for instance done by 'compagnies' like Rijkswaterstaat in the Netherlands.
1972 Pipi Langkous and Astrid Lindgren. My favourite literature as a child. Why hasn't been there an equivalent for boys that age, seven or eight...'Not a word about vagina's. Yes, a dialogue and a very nice drawing about guns. Piemels en vagina's, it is so very natural. These organs are part of the human body. Or is it too biological these days? We are living 2016!!!!!!!!!!!
O my god, my seven year son would say. I don't believe it. But then, his father is a biologist and his mother loves to use all the words of planet Earth. She even comes up with 'new' words.
O dear mother Maria, what is happening?
1984 Michel Foucault, Het gebruik van de lust. Geschiedenis van de seksualiteit, in drie delen. Original in French, translated into Dutch. Anymore translations? Arabic? Idea for now?
1985 bestseller Habits of the Heart. Individualism and commitment in American Life, by Robert, Richard, William, Ann and Steven. Social researchers / scientists.
'Habits of the Heart holds a mirror to American values, makes us examine ourselves, dares us to question where our society is going. Makes you question your own habits and look into your own heart.'
Dear Nico Wilterdink and German and British and French and Spanish and Italian collegues:
Here is THE IDEA FOR 2016. It is a goldmine, I prospect, I foresee......with my magic reading eyes.
2014 De Zwemmer / The Swimmer, by Joakim Zander. A Northern 'boy'. Category: thriller. A debut! The first lines of the book: July 1980 Damascus, Syria.
'I think it is also about social exclusion and aging of men and the loss of testosteron, a not sexy item to speak about loud on birthdayparties, in Europe. That makes me think, is it then de p word, de piemel, which should be discussed more openairy hardop, out loud, in public life.
And which artist is going to perform the Da Vinci circle in public, in Cologne or New York or Marrakech! Show it! Uh? Police? Soumission? Or do even a lot of police men think of piemels as very threathening. Uh? Most of the time piemels are as soft as breast. And yes, occasionaly piemels can become harder, even stuff, like nippels do. So, what is the problem?
O, self control!!! Why do you not say so. That is a matter of training, like learning how to p,ay football.
If it is true that we all are seeking attention...........this is the time, now, why not grasp this golden opportunity?
Men and women artists are invited to perform piemels, the real ones, fake ones, doesn't matter, yes, in public! Off course. Why do so secretive about it? From a psychological approach, the most effective way to adress to a 'bully' us to 'bully' back. Another word is 'mirroring'.
The best places seem to be the entrances / exits nearby railwayatations. In Europe, at least. I do not no so much about the best places in Asia, Oceania, SouthAmerica, USA, Canada, MiddleEast, Arabia.
Maybe you can come up with some place advice for the 'poor' artists of planet Earth.
2015 Soumission, roman/ novel by Michel Houllebecq, a writer with a French ID, who is moving around in public space in Europe, not alone, not as an individual, but as a group. A very biological attitude, people feel safe in a group, according to biologists.
Why isn't there any biologist writing in the newspaper about ' group rapings ' among the human species? Are they being socially, communicatively, excluded from the printed public news? Are they not able to write in public language? Do they not teach in schools of Journalism? Is it a place, an education or a language problem? Or is it any 'elephant' kind of habit to stay safe at the university and on Google / scholar internet, to only share knowledge among the members of the biologist group.
Or do we need historians like Thomas van der Dunk to pick up this topic? Well, Thomas thinks it is of more importance now to do research on and write about the board elites. Thinking money money money. Thomas, can I ask you a personal question? When do you think women, women, women?
If I may remind you of your own argument in an article in de Volkskrant, 14Janary 2016, I copy: 'Die zelfzuchtige cultuur komt men inmiddels in ........ tegen.' I translate: ' That selfish kind of culture one is able to encounter in........'.
Yes, a group. Historians seem to act in a group as well. I am trying to become a whathappnd scientist, a new wave of historian, actually whathappnd scientist are words, derived from the literally translated words in Dutch with the meaning of historian: geschiedwetenschapper. But since hardly anyone understand Dutch, I came up with these English words. 'Houston, do you read me?'
Do you like to join that group? You understand, do you?
