Hi you all,
First moment of internet connection here in Devon and short so not a proper response to anything but I am getting more and more excited about our project together- I finally got to read 'Cheap Chinese' in the Mute anthology this morning.
It seems an exemplary and stunning example of how we can at least make some respose to the anger and shame I so frequently feel to the obscene individual suffering and death that actually make our lives possible- and in a way that connects the personal to the very global forces all around us.
And M, fuck!
I won't be mentioning any worries about Eurocenticism again- and I have numerous articles that mirror from different places around the world what has come up in both writing spaces. Rich fuckers running over street sleepers in their car in the middle of Delhi a few weeks back echoing a story in John's text- and the many Indian workers attacked in Australia and Canada and the Romanians fleeing Northern ireland after attacks, etc, just a couple of them.
A... I will produce a word document detailing the problems I encountered in filing the 28 000 articles or whatever- so we can discuss the absolutely pertinent questions you raise about structure for further proceeding with the timeline. I will include all the keywords I have used too- and the different ways we can organise or not organise the work according to everyones preferences.
I can't meet next Monday either. I am availabale on Tuesday 28th or Wednesday 29th or Thursday the 30th- or basically any day through January 11th- I'm off work so as long as its not in the morning I will go with anything. I guess the exception would be Fridays after 430for the Friday night groups.
So if you 3 can suggest times let's do it... A-maybe you know when the college is closed?
Best, Tim
