How Do You Get Rid Of Chlamydia In The Mouth

Interview with David Rees, author of "ironic" and go with the war! "


Printed in Italy for editions Isbn amazing collection of strips of David Rees.
"And go with the war" a satirical comic strip used by exploiting the Clip Art depicting ordinary people and average employee, plus some surprise like the robot "Voltron" composed entirely of mechanical lions, and oddly, instead of being "savaged by U.S. critics," it is the praise, according to industry insiders, clip art perfectly matches the theme of the series.
A series that actually has its strengths and nell'arguzia irony, David Rees characteristics that clearly stand out in this interview. Rees wrote this book thinking about the stupidity of war, its lack of direction and great proclamations that often accompany the death of civilization, freedom, democracy or even a single person fell for the great support Western values.

Fabio Izzo: "And go with the war" is the title of your book in Italian, I like the sound?

David Rees: Yes, I like and I must say it sounds better in Italian even though I have absolutely no idea what it means

FI: So David, welcome on board the barge Italy. Browsing on your site you can see one of your interest in Italian politics, do you know about this topic? What is your opinion on our main candidates: Berlusconi and Veltroni Voltron eh-eh (for the pun on the appearance of a character by the name of Voltron in its strips)

DR: I LOVE BERLUSCONI! What a wonderful person, a true intellectual. I love his face, his skin, his new hair, her new eyes ... I hope someday to be in America for the race for the White House! We love the businessmen here. And we respect the leaders with a strong ego. Berlusconi, Putin, Sarkozy and Bush are all made of the same mold: heroes.

FI: The first line of your series begins with a slang (in da house), your work, and the use of the language semantics are very important because the case of political satire are aware of the manipulation of language made by politicians. In your opinion. We got to the point of having engaged in a real war of language?

DR: Yes, considering that language is the weapon more important in war as well as bombs, rifles, airplanes, tanks, grenades and soldiers. I started "and go with the war" following the need to respond to the idea of \u200b\u200b"war on terror" which I think is stupid. The phrases, statements, are so vague and are used to describe our enormous duty. Everything can be justified by referring to our "great" mission ": look at Iraq, look at Russia with Chechnya or China etc ... So why play with the language formally in my strips.

FI: One of the minor characters in your series, wants to become a poet thinking to improve the world, do you think poets can somehow change the world?

DR: Hmm, I'm skeptical about it, maybe it can happen once a generation. But poets can change the perception of the world that the people and then people could change the world.

FI: What about your skepticism, always paying attention to the power of words, instead of changing, we could say that the redemption of the world can pass through a poet?

DR: Yes, perhaps the world / language can be changed, so the war described by a poet is very different from the same war described by a politician, but we never see on our televisions and poets we see a lot of idiots in the various programs

FI: Lex Luthor, Flash Gordon, Voltron, in your work, not really a comic book, we find a lot of quotations from the world of comics, you're an avid reader?

DR: When I was younger, yes, these days many do not read. Spending most of my time reading blogs, and it's a terrible addiction that I have to finish!

FI: Who has most influenced your work?

DR Kool Keith (rapper), Ludwig Wittgenstein, Richard Rorty, Wu-Tang Clan, talkingpointsmemo.com and my friends.

FI:: Not a bit off the pace of the interview 'of Q & A Time: Hillary or Obama?

DR: Obama.

FI: French fries or freedom fries?

DR: Chips of freedom (free from fat, right?)

FI Coke or Pepsi?

DR: Guinness.

FI: Beatles or Rolling Stones?

DR: Burning Witch.

FI: You now have carte blanche to launch a message to our readers.

DR: Hi! Come to America to spend your Euros! The dollar is weak and we need your help dl! Come tomorrow as well, is a nice place here! You can visit the Statue of Liberty, before it is sold to China to pay our debts.

FI: We have to wait long to read alter your work? .

DR: Good question, I'd like to publish in Italian my "My New Fighting Technique Is Unstoppable."

Can You Use A Temporary License To Buy Alcohol

Umberto Galimberti in power against

L 'Association 1799 and Basilicata the SmartPar @ to organize two conferences co n philosopher Umberto Galimberti.
The first - titled "Footprints of the sacred", as part of the project "What Is Called Thinking" - will be held Friday 'April 4th at 17:00 at the Teatro Stabile di Francesco Potenza.
The second - on the theme "The Host disturbing. Nihilism and young" - will be held Saturday, April 5 at 9:30 am, Aula Magna Università degli Studi della Basilicata (Polo Macchia Romana).

Continue the cycle of meetings with representatives of Italian thinking on important issues affecting Technique , God, Values \u200b\u200band the State. Among other guests who have already participated remember Massimo Cacciari, Emanuele Severino, Massimo Donà and Vincenzo Vitello.

Umberto Galimberti returns to power at the invitation of Basilicata1799 for the second time in two matches. On the evening of April 4 will address the issues of the sacred in relation to today's society characterized by nihilism. In "Footsteps of the Holy . Christianity and the desecration of the sacred. "(Feltrinelli, 2000), Galimberti warns against talking to ease return of the sacred:

"age of technology has somewhat secularized anything, but there is still the sacred out of us, and especially in that dimension within ourselves a bit 'low degree from Freud we used to call the unconscious or in a more dramatic madness. The sacred is a region very mysterious and all that precedes the reason, reason and the time when man is born and gives the rules, is organized civic life "... "Many people identify the sacred with God .. No! God in the sacred came much, much later, is characterized by a world of radical ambivalence constituted by the fact that if God is not too far humanity is based is too close but the presence of God is devastating, ".... "The sacred, which has a great kinship with madness, and intended not as a transgression of the right, but as that which precedes the same reason and from which it draws ideas of content to settle. The advent of Christianity in some way marked the end of the sacred because if God becomes man, then God is worldliness. Christianity later became the civil society, now speaks of worldly things, talk about sexuality, talking about school, talk about condoms, talking about embryos, no longer speaks of God, and therefore Christianity belongs to the order of secularization, the order of the forgetfulness of the sacred "

manifestations of religiosity do not certify that the leave of God for technology. The history and tradition of Christianity are not able to respond to our times. Appendix pale and ineffectual tradition, Christianity will disappear, because it belongs to the same dish of western thought which finds its target this age of technology. Not better health enjoyed by the thought that has developed so-called secular ethics are no longer able to predict what the consequences of the actions of men, subject themselves to the technique that has as its sole purpose the increase.
"A strong and thought provoking - said Francesco Scaringi (Basilicata1799 Association president) that surely will not leave indifferent, for the clarity and direct way of asking Umberto Galimberti, now public figure of great media success. "

the second meeting to be held April 5 at Aula Magna of the University of Basilicata, Macchia Romana, Galimberti will be interviewed by the students of Liceo Socio - Psycho - Pedagogical power. Taking a cue from his book "The Host haunting" In addressing the problems affecting young people existential uncertainty.

"Keep it up - Francesco Scaringi repeats - collaboration between schools and the power of our association . Thanks to a group of lecturers, ready to offer their students outstanding cultural experiences, it was possible to organize this meeting. Students not only read the book but Galimberti, guided by the teachers, conducted a series of extensive research on youth from from their own experience and existential condition.

"Through these meetings - adds Joseph Biscay, creator of the project - we want to continue to offer the city of Potenza moments of reflection on current issues and universal, but these are very close to our existence daily, the question we ask for ourselves and for our children. We thank the SmartPar @ to, which shows that the sensitivity and the private entrepreneurs can contribute to the spread of culture. "

Aesthetic Communication (2). Ripping against Berlusconi

_____________________

Berlusconi finally enters the height of the campaign and does so with a gesture that has attracted much attention, focusing on him the whole world of communication. He has literally, in a passage highlight of his performance during the official opening of the campaign, ripped, torn apart, symbolically and practically, the program of PD.

It is now clear that behind this act, in my opinion well premeditated, there may be various interpretations, including one that expresses an unbearable violence against political opponents in the eyes of his must be cut to pieces, even in the sense that the things they say are of little use and can be tossed in the trash. We expect days of denials and confirmations, a talk on him, that autoalimenterà certainly not as a goal or a foul in a football game, in which dozens of times will come again for endless replays tolkshow of experts and amateurs the fray.

Berlusconi is a communicator and as such it is confirmed in this circumstance as has focused attention on himself, managing to move the debate on ways to more content, knowing that this can be a winner. Consciously or unconsciously that is a "communication techniques" and folds of the implications spectacular uses them and knows them well. In him human characteristics, amount of entertainment, communication and political charismatic populist who are accommodated within our democracy political parties that can no longer enclose in a defined identity. The way to stir up his is a mix of historical references (clearly uncritical), Benito Mussolini , primarily for the gestures and pauses (it's obvious that this is not so much cultural affinity but a script evocative nostalgic for a fund that has not yet abandoned certain public), and techniques of motivational training for large groups with para implications of a prophet who can outline the indefinite future, but certainly better.

not get me wrong, Berlusconi I do not like him from a political point of view, I believe, however, extremely intelligent and skillful. This time it is more difficult because he is faced with an opponent " soon" as they say young people and hear elements of insecurity in his political conduct. The character fascinates me because I reflects on politics and society more generally . In fact I do not want to make criticism against it I'm just noting something which Berlusconi manifests the essence and that, therefore, does not belong to him alone. I am speaking of communication, that characterize the current our society, which now incorporates in itself the economy, culture, art, religion and politics.

Berlusconi gesture with his rips a program. What is a program? You establish a pipeline, a rule of conduct, goals and limits to qualify, define a sort of consistency. Good communication is the opposite of all this, mix all opposition in a only molasses. It is a turbillion heard, and never stopped, it could say a continuous game of turncoat in which every difference vanishes: be anyone anywhere to be alone and always on the scene.

We're not talking about the old ideological propaganda related to the determination of a fictitious reality that even if his identity and had to have a real consistency. We are facing something different than the rhetoric, propaganda and advertising, we want to convey in a seductive messages to an audience to bring to its side. The purpose of the communication, however, is to cancel any certainty, any form of subjectivity. The result is a kind of tabula rasa very sensitive and responsive, unable to keep what is written over the receipt and transmission, the predominant time here without memory or unconscious. This allows the powerful to make and unmake according to the momentary advantage, without being tied to anything.

Large chef are called spin doctor , experts in the art of "putting in motion" the news, give it a shot effect. We live in the era of "Dr. pirouette" special ability "is not so important what you communicate but how we do it." To put a new spin - To give a new turn now regardless of logic and moral messages fast and easily assimilated in ste sso erasable time in a continuous turn the page to start over from scratch. It is expressed in this way for the affirmation of a culture against collective values.

I know, my statement may be too pessimistic and, perhaps influenced by 'interesting panphlet scitto by Mario Perniola entitled "Against the communication" (ed. Einaudi), for which "society of communication not only poses a political problem: it is about saving knowledge, reasoning, the chain of arguments, distinctions, levels, and above all beauty. "

Aesthetic Communication (1). Between San Remo and the Coen brothers -

_____________________

I would like to sketch a little reflection from some of my experiences of the viewer. After all someone has already said, we live in a society of spectacle and simulation of which we celebrate the glories and harmful involvement with particular unconscious. The point concerns the Sanremo festival and the film of brothers Joel and Ethan Coen "No Country for Old Men," which I saw at the cinema a nice Saturday evening in good company. You Clearly, the combinations are random, abstract way of example, a larger flow that accompanies us daily and continuously. fact I will not talk about the festival of San Remo by TV critic, I have not followed.

As millions of Italians, I happened to see sights, hear some piece of endless talk shows, also won the boredom especially prime time television. Nor do I want to here a criticism of the film, which I recommend, however, not to be missed especially for those who love the unique cinema (including the learned and popular, the quotations and love for the cinema "classic" Hollywood, humor and sarcasm, the comic and tragic), the Coen brothers.

I would try, if possible, in contrast to the absolute pervasiveness of the communication plan of the aesthetic. Operation is not easy because my intent is hidden behind this reflection and discussion of a philosophical nature - that is aesthetic, for example, reference to a thinker who Perniola Mario, who wrote a pamphlet, which I already mentioned, entitled "Against communication ". The theoretical argument will return it at another time. I hope through my subjective experience (as a phenomenologist) to bring out some key aspects of the speech and the views that I would like to act as the beginning of a reflection on the aesthetics and our society.

Prior experience

I'm at home watching TV, are in the bar and work. If discussions. The Sanremo festival is over. Someone always hoped to see the decline in ratings. What happens in Italy, what happens in the television? A great upheaval. Whose fault is it decreases the audience? The formula, conductor, song or who knows what other machine. The poor Baudo does not admit the debacle but he knows that in his heart he won the television garbage. Because television is garbage and the other in the sense that the festival is not? For shape, for good education, for wholesome entertainment, art that represents? Here this is an important point: the relationship between art and entertainment (but here the discussion is blocked, you can not go beyond the limited scope of content offered contradictory).

Second experience

The Coen brothers' film "No Country for Old Men" is based on the novel by Cormac McCarthy. A film by level set in the desert on the border between Mexico and the United States in which there is a pursuit of death for a hunter, who accidentally finds two million dollars at the scene of a massacre that took place between rival gangs of drug traffickers and a killer ( looking bizarre and absurd) that kills with a deep sense of duty "ethical" and not just economic. The third character is a wise old man and are now disillusioned sheriff, who has seen everything that you could see the worst in life, the deterioration of human relationships in a disorder where every inner and outer life project is doomed to fail. But there's more. Suspension of the absurd gestures, rhythms, and narration and dialogue emerge Ask yourself deeper into the case and the need, about who or what decides life and death, how to draw an impossible moral conduct for a humanity that seems to break up a fistful of dollars (just to give a quote ...). The three players chasing the one reflected in the hall without being able to avoid his fate, or that of humanity that such a waiver to be. A short film show, an aesthetic experience and artistic significant.

Trying to reflection.

The festival San Remo is a great machine spectacular - to communicate. It was, and to some extent still is, the moment of self-representation of a nation, better than a company, which is reflected in the sparkle in his carefree ways and lifestyles more dominant. But like any form of communication is self-contradictory, confused, omnivorous, autoriproduttiva, a-symbolic, devoid of content, indifferent, interested in the economic machine that holds, falsely democratic approval instead of differences.

Not that the films of the Coen is also surrounded by channels of communication and subject, as it were, the spotlight communication, but there is something missing, which is in shadow (say Perniola), which nevertheless accounts, opening up new opportunities, call content, let us not fall back on ourselves. Of course one goes to the movies for fun, but if you search for the Coen then it is not only what you want and you can get. That's important.

The Sanremo festival is full of himself, but never can be revived will be different from himself, now devoid of symbolic life is just imagination expired.

brief conclusion.

They are two different experiences of being in the world. The first (Sanremo) is the world of mass-communication media, whose influence now extends to culture, politics and art, "seems to be the magic wand that turns the inconclusiveness, the retraction and the confusion on the major weaknesses trial of strength. " The second opening of different perspectives, in which cast doubt on the horizon of meaning and acquired resist totalitarian indifference that surrounds us.

The characters in the film make a gesture that unites them. They sit in front of a television turned off. The screen can see its image. We can understand how each is a reflection of the other but basically they are all projections of the same screen that has absorbed the soul returning to the emptiness and loneliness that surrounds them.
