"But in the 1960s there was a veritable explosion of non-linearity. Julio Cortázar's novel Hopscotch, published in 1963, is the best known novel to play with the form: Hopscotch presents one story when the first 56 chapters are read straight through, and another, slightly different story when the chapters are interleaved by the reader with the "expendable chapters" at the end of the book. This process is repeated in miniature in chapter 34 of the book, where the main character is reading an old novel and thinking about what he's reading at the same time."

"deLanda: I agree that the domination of this century by linguistics and semiotics (which is what allows us to reduce everything to talk of "frameworks of interpretation"), not to mention the post-colonial guilt of so many white intellectuals which forces them to give equal weight to any other culture's belief system, has had a very damaging effect, even on art."

they were devoted to that impossible concept of futurity
\that the future is something that the present must address
\that the present must legislate the future

[[the avant garde] as an extreme contract with that which will be.]

Klaus Nomi: "Samson and Delilah (Aria) Mon coeur s'ouvre a ta voix"

"Toward the end of the show, the lights dimmed and the room was filled with a thundering musical ovation. The curtains opened and the spotlight fell on a strange, unearthly presence wearing a black gown, clear plastic cape, and white gloves. As the orchestral refrain from Saint-Saens' 'Samson And Delila' was played, this strange Weimar version of Mickey Mouse began singing in an angelic voice. "I still get goose pimples when I think about it," remembers Joey Arias, who was in the audience that night. "Everyone became completely quite until it was over."

(from Steven Hager, Art After Midnight: The East Village Scene, 1986)
