Liminal Blues eh? What a pretentious name for a blog. Yeah maybe. Anyway this is my new blog where I’m going to post all the interesting (snigger) stuff I do, see, think, and mostly listen to. Liminal has a duel meaning, in that I’ve heard people use the word to describe freeways, carparks, fast food joint, places where you never really are, but have only been, places where you only go in order to go to other places. For me I suppose it’s more about thresholds, about occupying that point where you push things, learn, change, expand – something like deterritorialization, or transcoding – if there’s anyone out there like me who’s sacrificed days, weeks, to unravel Deleuzian nomenclature. I suppose I want this to be a liminal space. That might be too serious a mission statement, hence the blues…

“It was all fiercely new, completely disconcerting, and it acted as a goad to our feeble minds and our slothfulness.”
– Michel Tournier
Maybe one day we can have a real conversation about this… in the meantime you’ve given me a reminder to enjoy the moments that music and philosophy provide… x
