Hmm, wouldn’t it be much more fun to put up some quotes from Consider the Lobster? Almost finished it & it’s such fun to read DFW’s (yeah, again I use the word fun) essays. Also a very nuanced analysis of the state of the United States, in the period 1995 – 2005. The wikipedia entry is a stub, but it has an overview of the content: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consider_the_Lobster.

In less than an hour, here at the Jan van Eyck, I’ll be attending the presentation of Liesbeth Huybrechts and Ive Stevenheydens, entitled Power plays: interior desires, exterior spaces. Can’t find too much online of what they’re up to. Was planning to sign up for a studio visit, but yesterday the list was already overbooked. Rarely happens.

Well, tomorrow you’all can listen to Oorbeek on the radio: radio 747, Zeldzaam Dwars, 23.00. It’s a live performance we did in the radio studios last year, plus a long interview. Seems to’ve become quite okay. Guess the program will be online afterwards: http://www.vpro.nl/programma/zeldzaamdwars.
