-- single sheet fanzine, February 1979
Words: Ian Penman.
(Window too small? How about a larger 2nd window?)
(Initial hypothesis) The first risk
of
organized
industry of late it is widely not too hot, discursively speaking, no
prospects, of interest internment unrest, will be whiling away a
whole already unable capital...
The impress -quarter -grid of this forced-hearing central pop u lation
is where beat in the administration ousts the packaged Riff.
That the intent has to amend law and a garrulous chit-chat yik-yak
situation, precarious, the focal element.
According to young analysts who seek this-year prospects of political
or things beat for education, annihilation, resistance...
On the border, their brink, our use of concepts of discontinuity,
rupture, threshold, limit, series, and transformation.
Questions of procedure.
Unities
of
organized
discourse of late
...
Scritti Politti
pull and push
beat politik
onomatopoeiac...formation of words by imitation of sounds associated
with the act or object to be denoted...sections seen emerging from a
mess! relentless rockers...
in the discursive validation of claims to validity, and the
discursive dissolution of opinions and norms the validity of which
is based on unjustified claims, no matter to what extent it is actually
accepted...
"some kind of piecemeal engineering or dismantling of
problems as wee come to them, with new sets of tools that aren't really
derived formally from the history of rock n roll..."
Scritti Politti:
between function and heart, past and potential, 'politics' and
'aesthetics', communication and control, knowledge and interest. The
problems and positions of useful action with and in rock music demand
rigour: doubt beat! provisional fever...
"If people wanted to know what we were about, instead of going into a
tedious attempt at grand plans and grand strategies which we don't
really have...It's very much a bit by bit sorting of things, using
new ways of talking about it..."
You search long modern England fast and
the song has four short choruses to stagger through, artificially
autobiographical in this age and date, a vein like this. In the upper
discourse, time and trial, all the usual defence and systems of
regularities, auto-changes knowledge regularly, must dash. Intro the
processes of what some would like to constitute real belief, sound un-
tampered it's four o clock never mind that old slack magic looking into
hermeneutical heirlooms, to the time, not signs of historical contempt,
lock into
the ballrooms
there's a battle! all the spaces a set affords...
the sense of
practical change
of established conditions, and the realisation of goals which demand the
risk of
taking sides, and, thus, precisely the relinquishment of the neutral
role of
a participant in discourse: all because I ask the question...
(I) try to explore the discourse not from the point of view of the
individuals who are speaking/playing, nor from the point of view of the
formal structures of what they are saying/playing, but from the point of
view of
the rules
that come into play in the very existence of such discourse: what
conditions
have to be fulfilled, not to make the discourse coherent and true
in general
but to give it, at the time when it was produced and accepted,
value and
practical application
...presented with a threat.
