Annual Billionaire Challenge
Annual Billionaire Challenge / Local council administered:
Every year all billionaires have a two-week window to file public exemptions before they are taxed half a billion for every billion. Arguments can only claim 20% exemption and the same argument cannot be used in the next year’s accounting. Taxes are distributed to local councils, peoples committees…

ISSH2024
We have extended the deadline for abstracts for ISSH2024 by ten days.
Though the deadline for text for the proceedings is still 1st May. Conference is 26-27 July. Please consider coming. Its hard to show what is great about a conference, but having organised many – in nine countries – it was not until doing this series of events in Vietnam that I learned what a real team effort can achieve – the pictures do NOT do it justice – https://hutnyk.wordpress.com/2019/10/08/innovations-in-the-social-sciences-and-humanities-issh2019/
The TV news piece perhaps gives more flavour:

(though I dunno why the news item stops half way – it went on a few more minutes).

Cairns – Moratorium
Some video of the 1970 Moratorium in Melbourne
.
This starts with JIm Cairns setting out some rules of engagement for when the crowd reaches the intersection opposite the state parliament. Jim used to sell his books outside the Prahran Market every Saturday morning when I knew him – circa 1978, a few years after his notoriety .
.
The occasion of this post though is that I’ve just bought one of his books – one I had lent out long ago and not had returned – and wonder how it got to Vietnam. Obviously it makes sense that it did, bit who is this outfit the “Australian Troll Union Delegation” who visited in 1972. Among the names on the page listing the delegation members is George Crawford, Plumber and Gasfitters Union official, Australian Labor Party Victoria branch member, he appears as a speaker on disarmament in the University of Melbourne Archives in the 1960s, becomes State President of the ALP in 1969 and MP for Jika Jika in 1985 (Gayle Tierney, ‘Crawford, George Robert (1926–2012)’, Obituaries Australia, National Centre of Biography, Australian National University, https://labouraustralia.anu.edu.au/biography/crawford-george-robert-33126/text41305).
Ron Arnold, Neville Hill and Sphi(?) Gillard are the other delegates.
Henrietta Clive
A friend is in India and I am vicariously planning tours that would take more time than anyone has…
I recently – well 3 years ago – read the journals of Henrietta Clive, the daughter-in-law of Lord Clive, and she, in 1800, just after Tipu’s defeat, sets out from Madras with 60 elephants and hundreds of retainers, intrepidly “on her own”!! This means she was on her own, of course, sans man – it was only that she was leaving her insufferable colonel husband at home doing colonial admin: she takes her two daughters and their governess with her. Seems her trip was a series of stops at military encampments all across South India – there is a map, a trail so to speak – Madras-Vellore-Mysore-Coimbatoor-Trichy-Tanjore-Tranquebar-Pondicherry-Madras – and she basically is visiting various battle sites and occupation/guard stations to collect up loads and loads of tribute and booty after Tipu’s defeat. This includes getting his gold encrusted slippers which are now on display in Powys Castle, rural Wales, along with more Indian loot than is in the whole of the Victoria&Albert Museum in London (and that’s a lot of looting). The narrative is called “Birds of Passage” – the kids and the governess make it plural – and my copy was an edition printed in Serampore – it was absolutely fascinating, romantic, ghastly, and revealing of much detail that is not available in the usual Chris Bayly type histories. Car-crash plunder nevertheless. Would make a great trip, historical investigation – reparations implied.
The Indian Struggle
“The ethnic diversity of India has never been a problem – for tgroughout her history sge has been able to absorb different races and impose on them one common culture and tradition” (Bose 1935 [1948]: 10-11)
The Discovery of India
“we are too much under the bondage of slogans” Nehru 1947: 545)

Just a few of a growing collection to accompany the article here – these are the ones that did not fit in the article in Inter Asia Cultural Studies – OR, for which I did not manage/afford to get the permissions… (note: I increasingly see Marston Mats as the very fabric of perforated capitalism).

Bamboo
A bit sad that this airline is not doing the very economical UK run anymore, but then maybe those extra luggage loads (was 45kg per pax) risked tipping the plane in the drink. This ad also makes a nice side comment on the Alaska Airlines 737 door incident. Mum and her kid certainly look happy to be getting away from it all, on their inflatable raft – part of the new journey deal. This might just be a new fold in dialectical meme advertising – credit to Bamboo then (oh, and their onboard food was great too – fresh as if just caught in the river).

Intravenous ideological global apparatus – IISAs
I am holding out for the new intravenous culture industry critique. Cannot get students to leave their screen devices alone even if they are banned in the classroom. May as well be permanently plugged in – and then I get an email from microsoft who say I can now spend even more pointless time deciding which apps are exempt from the pointedly anti screentime mechanism I had in place – “Set screen time limits will be applied individually across all platforms. There will no longer be a single schedule for all devices” – and this is not a choice, I now actively have to go and log each app’s limits. Its for ‘family safety’, and ‘flexiblity’ – indeed ‘enjoyment’ and ’empowerment’ – As they say: “You can now enjoy platform-specific app limits, empowering you to set different time restrictions on each”. These are the days in which the Ideological Global Apparatus goes complete-Skynet – however much I enjoyed watching Ngô Thanh Vân battle scripted stereotype casting and cliche in The Creator.

Diễn giả: Giáo sư Ned Rossiter, Viện Văn hóa và Xã hội, Đại học Western Sydney
Chủ đề trình bày: Những Phản Ánh về Mạng Lưới có Tổ Chức và Những Phương Pháp Nghiên Cứu Tổng Hợp
Abstract: This talk gives an overview of organizing collective research staged in Beijing from 2007–2008. Drawing on techniques of urban intervention figuring in the art and activist scene in Europe in the early 2000s, the mobile reseach lab in Beijing proposed a ‘counter-mapping’ of creative industries – a policy discourse that had gained considerable traction with governments in many countries. Running over a period of three months in the hot Summer of Beijing, the project combined international and local researchers, artists, architects, designers, curators, film makers, activists, hackers, policy makers, political and cultural theorists. The ambition was to curate a repertoire of experimental methods to ask different kinds of questions about urban conditions, migrant politics and service labour, artistic practices, communication infrastructures, waste industries, and cultural economies.
The experiences gleaned from this research established the foundation for a series of subsquent projects that, broadly defined, examine new geopolitical formations associated with China’s rise as a global hegemon. These projects include Transit Labour: Circuits, Regions, Borders (2009-2011), Logistical Worlds: Infrastructure, Software, Labour (2013–17), Data Farms: Circuits, Labour, Territory (2016–21), and The Geopolitics of Automation (2020–24). As a starting point, each of these projects investigates particular logistical and communication infrastructures such as shipping ports, data centres, and warehouses as a material instantiation of geopolitical formations made both concrete and ephemeral.
Bionote: Ned Rossiter is a media theorist noted for his research on network cultures, the politics of cultural labour, logistical media, and data politics. Rossiter is Director of Research at the Institute for Culture and Society and Professor of Communication in the School of Humanities and Communication Arts, Western Sydney. Rossiter is the author of Organized Networks: Media Theory, Creative Labour, New Institutions (2006), Software, Infrastructure, Labor: A Media Theory of Logistical Nightmares (2016) and (with Geert Lovink) Organization after Social Media (2018). His writings have been translated into Italian, Spanish, German, French, Finnish, Dutch, Chinese, Greek, Latvian, Hungarian, Turkish, and Polish.
Siraj // Begam Lutf-un-nisã

Re-vaulting

New Poetics/from the Re-vaults of almost forgotten heroes
Nobody finishes everything – here are some that won’t get done soon… I guess belonging to the genre of short form essay plans and haikus that will bug most people
Motivation seems impossible implausible even. Need to see how to build research as resistance as well as the pleasure of reading Marx. Spivak, Adorno, Aragon, Ahmed, Schlegel.
Publishing and Pamphlets, zines, manifestos
175 years since the hitherto struggles of the class war
- Engels + Horner
- Marx + Mrs Kugelman
- Rose + Theo
Latter-day manifestos
- Nancy Cunard, Louis Aragon
- Marguerite Duras + Georges Bataille
- Jane Fonda, Jen-Luc Godard
These are just plans to structure the work needed
- to shift from a mantra of class struggle to media intervention without loss
- to show its not enough just to study of watch, yet that is necessary
- that ongoing project of revolt.
Motivation as implausible aspiration on an off day
Even the pleasures of reading are made vocational , monetised by ghouls.
The admiration of others descending into a quagmire of doubt, even through effort to list and convey why it might be necessary
Manifestos of old renewals of the class war for digital times, in a metre that seems obscure
Retrospects of intellectual romanticism of lists – Fred and Leonard, Karl and Gertrude, Rosa and Theo, Nancy and Louis, Marguerite and Georges, Jane and Jean-Luc. These are just poses to substitute longing for desire, to structure laziness as forward movement, indulgent late-night page-turning pot-boilers seeking a higher calling.

Luft aus anderen planeten
Stefan George
Ich fühle luft von anderem planeten.
Mir blassen durch das dunkel die gesichter
Die freundlich eben noch sich zu mir drehten.
Und bäum und wege die ich liebte fahlen
Dass ich sie kaum mehr kenne und du lichter
Geliebter schatten—rufer meiner qualen-
Bist nun erloschen ganz in tiefern gluten
Um nach dem taumel streitenden getobes
Mit einem frommen schauer anzumuten.
Ich löse mich in tönen, kreisend, webend,
Ungründigen danks und unbenamten lobes
Dem grossen atem wunschlos mich ergebend.
Mich überfährt ein ungestümes wehen
Im rausch der weihe wo inbrünstige schreie
In staub geworfner beterinnen flehen:
Dann seh ich wie sich duftige nebel lüpfen
In einer sonnerfüllten klaren freie
Die nur umfängt auf fernsten bergesschlüpfen.
Der boden schüffert weiss und weich wie molke.
Ich steige über schluchten ungeheuer.
Ich fühle wie ich über letzter wolke
In einem meer kristallnen glanzes schwimme-
Ich bin ein funke nur vom heiligen feuer
Ich bin ein dröhnen nur der heiligen stimme
#############
Though Jameson has two paragraphs in a row that start “In any case” this one on page 71 links Stefan George to Wagner, von for aus, and sci fi to China. Always invoking that other air.

The faces that had previously turned to me in friendship. Now pale in the darkness before me. And trees and roads I loved grown dim…

later, let us find Zemlinskys’ „Maiblumen blühten überall“ für Sopran und Streichsextett…
Women of Indology?
Caroline Michaelis, Böhmer, Schlegel, Schelling.
Just leaving this here to look for later – seems there is more to the story of the founding of Indology…
“Schlegel, Caroline, née Michaelis (1763-1809): born at Göttingen, the daughter of Johann David Michaelis, the orientalist. In 1784 she married Johann Franz Wilhelm Böhmer (1755-1788) and moved with him to Clausthal in the Harz. There were three children, Auguste (1785-1800), Therese (1787-89) and Wilhelm (1789). Böhmer died in 1788. She lived alternately in Göttingen and Marburg, and from this time date AWS’s first serious attentions. In 1792, she moved to Mainz to be near her friend Therese Huber. A brief liaison with the French officer Crancé left her pregnant. She was arrested and incarcerated after the fall of the Mainz republic. AWS rescued her and brought her back to Brunswick. The child, Julius Crancé (or Kranz) died in 1795. After his return from Amsterdam, AWS married her in 1796 and they moved to Jena. She took a full part in his literary activities, and worked on the Shakespeare translation and the essay, Die Gemälde. An attraction developed for Schelling after his arrival in Jena. On the death of Auguste in 1800, she separated from AWS, divorcing him in 1803 and marrying Schelling. She moved with him to Würzburg and then to Munich. She died at Bad Maulbronn” – wiki
Seriously John, some wiki stub is not enough. Yup, gonna look for more in Germany this year… Also:
Dorothea Brendel Mendelssohn, Viet, Schlegel
Friedrich Schlegel’s muse certainly deserves more attention:
“Schlegel, Dorothea (von), née Brendel Mendelssohn (1764-1839): novelist and translator. Born at Berlin, the daughter of Moses Mendelssohn. In 1783, she married the banker Simon Veit. Their two sons, Philipp and Johannes, became prominent painters of the Nazarene school. A nephew was Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. In 1797, she met FS in Henriette Herz’s salon, and an intensive liaison developed, of which his novel Lucinde (1799) was the expression. She moved with him to Jena during the period of the closest Romantic association, and in 1802 went with him to Paris. Her unfinished novel Florentin appeared in 1801, and in 1807 her translation of Madame de Staël’s Corinne. In 1804, on her conversion to Protestantism, she and FS were married. In 1808, she and FS were received into the Catholic faith in Frankfurt. She moved with FS to Vienna, sharing the vicissitudes of his life there, moving mainly in pious Catholic circles. In 1818-20 she accompanied her artist sons to Rome. After FS’s death, she moved to Frankfurt, where Johannes Veit was director of the Städelsches Kunstinstitut. She died at Frankfurt.”
Again, just the wiki stub for now. Gonna revisit.
“A physical and spiritual love at first sight seems to have seized both Schlegel and Dorothea. Except for Caroline (his brother’s wife from 1796 to 1803), Schlegel had never met a woman of such brilliance and charm” (Peter Firchow, 1971: 21. Introduction to Friedrich Schlegel’s Lucinda and the Fragments).

Arabian Nights: abriged too far (longest-kept trinket-exotica)
The 1821 Galland version of the Thousand and One Nights. “slightly abridged” with eight full colour drawings by Joan Kiddel-Monroe. 1965 reprint, Dent & Sons.
Got this book when I was 8 years old, poured over the stories and illustrations (yes, exoticist before the rush). Am not sure what an 8 year old was meant to make of the instruction to enjoy the stories over a cup of strong Arabic coffee, but my dad did get me ready for my early morning paper round with some of his percolated finest tar-like brew.
Unfortunately, and unforgivably, in this edition Scheherazade is basically written out of the whole thing, which made it all the more a challenge to work out what these two paragraphs really meant:
“The stories are connected one with the other by the fact that they were said to have been related night after night by a wife under sentence of death. She cleverly managed to stop at daybreak at such an exciting point in the story that her husband, the Sultan, was compelled by curiosity to let her live another day so as to hear the end of her tale.
This went on for the thousand nights, when eventually the wife was pardoned and her life saved by her own wit and imagination.
The text of this selection from the ‘Arabian Nights’ is that of Galland, 1821, slightly abridged and altered.”

Swift channelling Brion Gysin?
This was an epigraph in Jen-Luc Nancy’s book on Hegel and jokes: The Speculative Remark. 1973/2001
me absolutely getting into the spirit of laughter in Hegel.
dialectic and teleology
“a methodological issue … to forestall one of the most notorious and inveterate stereotypes of Hegel discussion, namely the thesis-antithesis-synthesis formula. It is certain that there are plenty of triads in Hegel, beginning with the Trinity (or ending with it?). It is also certain that he himself is complicitous in the propagation of this formula, and at least partly responsible for its vulgarization. It is certainly a useful teaching device as well as a convenient expository framework: and is thereby called upon to play its role in that transformation of Hegel s thought into a systematic philosophy—into Hegelianism, if you will—on which we will have occasion to insist over and over again in the present essay. For even if the tripartite rhythm happens to do justice to this or that local Hegelian insight, it still reifies that insight in advance and translates its language into purely systemic terms. (Indeed, for contemporary philosophy it is precisely this sequence which is identifiable as being teleological, so that today—or perhaps from Freud on—we tend to reverse this order and to affirm that it is the antithesis which produces the thesis in the first place, in order to generate the ideological illusion of the synthesis as such” (Jameson 2010: 18)
” the standard tripartite language, whose final term, “synthesis,” presupposes a resolution in this movement which is not at all consistent with Hegel’s thinking; positing a kind of success or progress in externalization and internalization which scarcely does justice to Hegel’s deeper appreciation of failure and contradiction and turns the historical movement of the dialectic into a banal and uplifting saga of inevitable progress” (Jameson 2010: 20)
