    SFULTRA #39 - His Master's Voice - Stanislaw Lem

    "So I think when I'm looking at you, I see you there. But I can't just explain what you are. I see you there and you could be photographed, but then after you'd been photographed, one still wouldn't know what your realism was. You'd have to find a technique by which you can give over all the pulsations of a realism of a person…  I'm talking bollocks…" - Francis Bacon, The Brutality Of Fact

    SFULTRA #35 - Beasts - John Crowley

    "The elementary unit of language — the statement — is the order-word. Rather than common sense, a faculty for the centralization of information, we must define an abominable faculty consisting in emitting, receiving, and transmitting order-words. Language is made not to be believed but to be obeyed, and to compel obedience...Words are not tools, but we give children language, pens, and notebooks as we give workers shovels and pickaxes. A rule of grammar is a power marker before it is a syntactical marker. The order does not refer to prior significations or to a prior organization of distinctive units. Quite the opposite. Information is only the strict minimum necessary for the emission, transmission, and observation of orders as commands...Language is not life; it gives life orders. Life does not speak; it listens and waits." - A Thousand Plateaus, Gilles Deleuze Felix Guattari I'm happy to welcome the Booktube's best critic and only tasteful video editor Matt Bookpilled back on the show. Matt's channel is one of the main inspirations behind SFUltra and his engaging, thoughtful approach to reading means his patreon is worth it and then some.
