A Blog Foreward with References to Aragon and Joyce
It's more a poetic debt to Aragon's avant-guarde experiments with writing techniques than much else that I will be presenting at this blog platform. It's these hours of the day when mind needs to be jump started into a high gear of awokenness that this exercise, hopefully performed daily, will be of use for. The automatic writing emphasis seeks to remove the precondition of being logical so that what subconscious causes for our private writing blocks there are could be dealt with in as subconscious a manner, as possible. In other words, if subconsciousness is a language that it should be possible to address it in so far more effectively, or the more effectively, the more writing diction and/or style comes closer to articulating the unconscious processes, contents and events that drive our conscious mental process from within, without and beyond. In other words, playfullness can have its non-playful uses when approached seriously enough, it being a self-conscious paradox of this initiated process that owes some of its inspirational debt to Joyce's Finnegan's Wake in that it is also an effort to approach the psychological traumas of translation between multiple languages that remain exercises in linguistic betrayal.
