Liked this. George Steiner is refinements even autism personified. But his words always about memory are where I receive this. It was for our health we decide where to fit in the Art commodity business of how much you wish to farm out your memory to others. You can pick your friends but they likely will not thank you for asking to keep track of your ideas. Deliberate choices we make Algren's Dove in walk on the Wildside is good quietcompany but you just regret for Nelson his alcoholic fragility. I liked the mention of religion. Quakers getting up to speak are really doing an altar call about their enthusiasm for the God. And the way it ends satisfies because it recalls Allen Watts extemporizing about how we can reach little endorphins of sweetness from being calm. I do wish to shop out my memory to a secretary besides social capital. It hardly looks like there is anywhere except a small enchanted circle of friends that has legs under it. Social capital is funny money.
Thank you Nathan! Social capital=funny money is a great way to put it. I don't know that, at the end of the day, there IS any currency beyond social capital, but I find myself fantasizing about it a lot - some idea of intrinsic worth. And I do find myself getting very moved by these old live recordings and things - this idea that there's a single authentic moment that can then be transmitted directly to a different person in a different era (and with a minimum intervention from social capital). I haven't Nelson Algren. Thank you for the recommendation. - Sam
There is chat around shortstack that social capital ain't real. I find it very real with unexpected behaviors as a cautionary tale can be accumulated and blown in instants. This is obvious, but nowhere written. So I continue as student of the school of obviousness needing neither p nor blame. Praise? Would be a poem or a song.
