Scott Esposito gives a good heads up on SF Station in “Litquake Rumbles Through Town”.
I'm bummed that I’m going to be out of town. If you’re in the Bay Area this week, you won’t want to miss it.
Here are some of the authors that will be present: Dorothy Allison, Thomas Barbash, Po Bronson, Iris Chang, Diane Di Prima, Barry Gifford, Kathi Kamen Goldmark, Jeff Greenwald, Daniel Handler/Lemony Snicket, Robert Hass, Diane Johnson, Maxine Hong Kingston, JT LeRoy, Regina Louise, devorah major, Joyce Maynard, Ann Packer, Ishmael Reed, Thomas Sanchez, Rebecca Solnit, and Irvine Welsh.
As physician en observant: thoughtful reputation in the era of e-commerce confronts the old fashion word of mouth that docs develope from hard work and community service: currently, professor Mann up in Toronto conveyed to me a concern regarding human liberties and Macro Media: the issue of a flash mob coordinated with persons holding thier camera in a comparametric manner to develope a virtual view orbit requires persons organizing themselves in a phalnx/spartan position. Other logistical issues from Tolsoy’s War and Peace discriptions of LaPlace placing of persons on the Europoean battlefeild come to mind:
with all this said, I called some old village poets and nuts (the Unbearables, Steve Cannon, Bob Holeman, Ismael Reed, and yes, Amiri Baraka (who will be reading at the Boweery Poets Bar at 7:30 pm…he is always late) but in the era of spam and viruses, old contacts have since changed email addresses and those who could vouch for my reputation as an activist are no longer available. So back to the issue of reputation, word of mouth as an MD who has concerns about digital images on licences as well as programed segregation and racism: planning a coordinated group of persons who know how to stand to acheive the subtle Mannian (Steve Mann) quantum effects of parrellel processing of informatics to expose the truth, requires reputation as a post: now my email address is on contact list only to prevent theft of patient information so I have quarentined myself and only Knuth, Mann, and other chosen few can get in, but in the process, my attemt to start someting in the lower east side is underminded by my own paranoia and hence, even if I have established an ereputation, I am lost and disconnected,
Tell Mr Reed I am building a situational awareness room withg Professor Mann at the Stoop
also safe bathroom system and a radar wearable computer system that can hack into all the poetry bars in NYC Calfiforna ect for a real time heckling system that cauases the digital licensing of faces to crash….
not bs..ing
trying to get in touch with David Henderson to get the flash mob b=going
Steve Mann is mentioned in the Samrt Mob book for reference;
also have taken pictures of cameras in Newark and bergen county and have it all organized on Ito joi’s blog….
[steve cannon+steve Mann= comparametric poetics]
all to 10 power to intersect with Donald Knuth’s Hamiltonian arcs…look up his web site at stanford…so we are placing different bits of dat dis and alphbits/byte on computers throught5out the lower east side to get a supercomputing interface…but them ignorant nuyoricans just discinnected thier fax machine so the equations needed to Hack int the fbi files/homeland security systems that will use the didt=gital imnages to run the face recognition systems are not being down loaded by them…we need more computer enginneers at the stoop…
