On the art of (voodle) memory

"This art of [voodle]memory is but built upon two intentions; the one prenotion, the other emblem. Prenotion dischargeth the indefinite seeking of that we would remember, and directeth us to seek in a narrow compass, that is, somewhat that hath congruity with our place of memory. Emblem reduceth conceits intellectual to images sensible, which strike the memory more; out of which axioms may be drawn much better practice than that in use...Emblems bring down intellectual to sensible things; for what is sensible always strikes the memory stronger, and sooner impresses itself than the intellectual... And therefore it is easier to retain the image(s) of a [modern] landscape passing by, a portrait of a snow owl, a captured stork behind a window, a blue barrel of frozen water near a volliere, than the corresponding notions of invention, disposition, elocution, memory, action."
Further voodling away, Sam Renseiw muses on some of Bacon's illuminations while paraphrasing; The art of (almost) daily memories is an enlightenment indeed, and is part of Sam's research into the morphology of body in space(s).

BTW: Brut Smog is continuing the remarkable "Lumiere et Son" project, carefully adding new audio on to Patalab's mute Lumieres. Treat yourself to some, there.

So much to see in that kitchen in only 1 minute. It's a perfect camera vantage.
In the main film, when the owl appears, fully-formed and clear, it's a magical moment.
thanks robert!
just discovered the exceptional depth of the "white "cube re-mix "undertaking: amazing work! i used the anchor mejan re-mix for the voodle above. looking forward to listening through all 93? re-mixex, then.
Thanks re: white cube.
Please allow me to point out a White Cube Remix posted by C. Reider on his own site rather than at ccmixter.
C. Reider is a maker of abstract music, whose drone approaches the material in a wonderfully ambient way.

am sifting throught the vast material from the white cube project. so many activities, that i first now realised had been planed a long time ago. must be more alert as to what is happening, i suppose.
