An alphabet by Tina Smith<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 Coming in March from Warp records<\/a>: reissues of three Broadcast releases that were previously only available in limited quantities, Microtronics, Volumes 1 & 2<\/em>, and Mother Is The Milky Way<\/em>. The latter is an EP which makes a perfect companion to Witch Cults Of The Radio Age<\/em>, and while its reissue means I’ll no longer be able to brag about owning one of the rare originals it really ought to have been more widely available. In addition, Warp will be releasing the group’s first live album, BBC Maida Vale Sessions<\/em>, a collection of performances for radio. All these releases are packaged in new cover designs by Julian House.<\/p>\n

\u2022 “Nature Boy<\/em> was the conduit through which vegetarian ideals, nonconformism and notions of living in harmony with nature began to filter into US culture.” Jon Savage on the exotic world of Eden Ahbez<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 At Dennis Cooper’s: Two booklets of Austin Osman Spare<\/a>: Earth: Inferno<\/em> (1905), The Book of Pleasure (Self-Love)<\/em> (1913).<\/p>\n

Joyce refused to fix the meaning of the words on the page and left the reader to fend for themselves. So the content may not be actually shocking, but the book feels exciting\u2014as though it might turn shocking any second. Anything might stir in the body or consciousness of a character, in the body or consciousness of the reader. My mother was right to consider it a dangerous text. The thing the censors worried about were the uncensored workings of their own minds.<\/p>\n

More than any other book, Ulysses<\/em> is about what happens in the reader\u2019s head. The style obliges us to choose a meaning, it is designed to make us feel uncertain. This makes it a profoundly democratic work. Ulysses<\/em> is a living, shifting, deeply humane text that is also very funny. It makes the world bigger.<\/p>\n

\u2022 At Aquarium Drunkard: occult scholar Mitch Horowitz<\/a> on the Transmissions podcast.<\/p>\n

\u2022 New music: M\u00f6bius<\/em><\/a> by Jonathan Fitoussi\/Clemens Hourri\u00e8re.<\/p>\n

\u2022 At Spoon & Tamago: Hiraku Suzuki\u2019s Constellations<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The month in type at I Love Typography<\/a>.<\/p>\n
