Rating :
ISBN : 9781480212
Language : English
Format Type : Paperback
Number of Pages : 246
Publication : First published July 13, 2010

an exercise in sensory overload from the minds of Gary J Shipley (Theoretical Animals) and Kenji Siratori (Blood Electric, Acidhuman Project, Mind Virus, etc) that pushes the limits of both human expression and that which can be assimilated in terms of socially-sanctioned pattern-recognition. Self-referring, auto-cannibalistic texts that hover and shimmer around the borders of the asemic, yet still retain a vivid relevance to the current post-human cultural landscape. A cyberpunk katabasis beyond Burroughs or Guyotat. Appendix by Reza Negarestani.

    "- alive in the necrocracy of lazy rebirths they are found blinded and fatigued - sprung carcasses rooted in death and flowering in despair of inevitable absorption - entombed in inscrutable hieroglyphs of poison, rot, and some
    artificial tenderness -"

    Well, that’s it for me as far as reading anything this year. Brainbreaker

    I'd never opened a book before and thought: I don't know how to read this. There are two columns of text on each page. One by Siratori and one by Shipley. After about 60 pages I couldn't and didn't want to read Siratori's column anymore. His prose is hyper algorithmic computer code. So, I continued on with Shipley's column. My eyes would keep sliding back to Siratori's column. I'd read a few words or just take it in as visual noise. I think that's what's supposed to happen as you read this book. Maybe not. But it works (as the book states it is an exercise in sensory overload). The appendix by Reza Negarestani is very illuminating to the rest of the book including its design.

    Only rotting and looking and rotting speak the rigor of cadaverous cities, the meat life, the stream-machines of dream-kind insanity temporarily human only dead - of faeces in the water of our dreams -. (Gary J. Shipley)

    I finished it, but I didn't finish it. You decide when to finish this book, but it's never really finished. The perfect book for a frantic ADHD brain.
