Extraordinary Discourse 165


Juking The Orthodoxies





The newborn infant synchronizes body-movements to speech used around her or him... speech is a body-process to the child... the name is in no way distinguished in the child's mind from the thing or event itself. The name enters into logical feedback as a component part of the event, exactly as its smell, taste, touch, and sight do.... a physical response of musculature... the child's thought process is his physical action... by adulthood, the movements have become microkinetic, discernable only by instrumentation, but nevertheless clearly detectable....

...Talking out one's world is frowned on as the communicative, rather than identifying aspects of language are stressed and expected. Along with a continually growing demand for conformity is a demand for silence, unless communication is intended...  ... so the talking out of one's world gets internalized. The internalized language function allies with the secret self operating beneath the mask of outer conformity...

They need to become border crossers who can think dialectically, and learn not only how to consume culture but also to produce it. Henry Giroux

Extraordinary Discourse 040 Special: The World Owes You A Living 3 Workplace And Men Men And War Families, Roles Pictures of Rich and Poor Today's Extraordinary Discourse Special is Episode 3 of The World Owes You A Living suite, a 6-part Millennial Associational Documentary. A good look behind the mask of the job system and its supporting institutions and memes. Where do we go, men, from a war to a matrix of desks/suit jackets /coldwar defense contracts. Whence domestic violence, "managers"? Powerlessness. Child sexual abuse? Powerless predators. Soul unity, camaraderie of WWII grunts broken into the centrifugal entropia of consumer items for the wife and kids and TV and alcohol til death. Dr. William Temple, 98th Archbishop of Canterbury: "I am inclined to agree with the Biblical saying that work is a curse." Dedicated to the #Occupy movements around the planet.
