“Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
Went down the list of the dead.

If with too credent ear you list his songs,
Or lose your heart, or your chaste treasure open
To his unmastered importunity.”

The immense number of useless projects is bewildering. Too many things have to be put in to balance up an uncertain scale. You can’t disappear anymore. You die in a state of total indecision.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

That from the solid bases of the light
