Exploding your notions of futurity one hair flip and anime princess-warrior bodysuit at a time: two must-follow Tumblrs, BCALLA LQQKS PROJECT and Miss Juliana Letton-Huxtable-LaDosha, the hypenate club kid cum revolutionary cum fishiest member of hardcore ballroom rap posse House of LaDosha. Dip into the latter’s pages to find the inner world of Bill Cosby’s queer-positive rave dreamgirl, while BCALLA desiger Brad Callahan offers monthly meditations on the ideal, hyperreal wardrobe.

NICOLAS PARTY


Our dear, old friend Nicolas Party (incidentally, brother of Ian Party) is represented by The Modern Institute, in Glasgow. It is always so nice to see someone you grew up with and shared so many ideas with make it “this high” in the artistic food-chain. We are very proud of him. And obviously, big fans of his art!

SCIENTIST: Then we can’t really describe what we have named.

TEACHER: Any description would reify it.

SCHOLAR: Nevertheless it lets itself be named, and being named it can be thought about…

TEACHER: …only if thinking is no longer re-presenting.

SCIENTIST: But then what else should it be?

TEACHER: Perhaps we now are close to being released into the nature of thinking…

SCHOLAR: …through waiting for its nature.

TEACHER: Waiting, all right; but never awaiting, for awaiting already links itself with re-presenting and what is re-presented.

SCHOLAR: Waiting, however, lets go of that; or rather I should say that waiting lets re-presenting entirely alone. It really has no object.

SCIENTIST: Yet if we wait we always wait for something.

SCHOLAR: Certainly, but as soon as we re-present to ourselves and fix upon that for which we wait, we really wait no longer.

TEACHER: In waiting we leave open what we are waiting for.

SCHOLAR: Why?

TEACHER: Because waiting releases itself into openness…

SCHOLAR: …into the expanse of distance…

TEACHER: …in whose nearness it finds the abiding in which it remains.
