De Algemene Verwarring #101 - 13 November 2023

Episode one hundred and one of De Algemene Verwarring was broadcast on Monday, November 13, 2023, and you can listen to it by clicking on the link below that will take you directly to the Mixcloud page:

Pictured below are De Portables, the Belgian band from Bruges that played its very last show last Friday. They existed for about 27 years and have always been a part of my musical life. Unfortunately that last show was on the same day as the first day of the Sonic City festival here in Kortrijk, so I missed it, but I've seen them numerous times in the past and I've always thought that they would be around for ever. There are only a few bands like that, the ones that have been around all your life and that you assume will be there forever. Sonic Youth was one of those bands, The Ex is still one of those bands, The Cure is one of those bands, and De Portables was one of those bands. I'm quite sure that there will be more musical output from the different band members (I mean, for instance, listen to Wio's excellent Disintegration cover album), but still, this is the end of a musical era. And there are not a lot of Belgian bands with the same legacy as De Portables. I already played on of their excellent cover songs in the previous episode, and this time I'm playing the opening and title track of their album "Rosegarden". Thank you for the music!

This whole episode has a post festival vibe, there's only one very loud track, there's a lot of slow long tracks, a few drones, and a bit of krautrock. Bands in this episode include The Shifters, Sex Church, Stereolab, Lungfish, PJ Harvey, Hydroplane, Ordeal, K-Group, and a new Blod track to open the show. And beneath the photo you can find the playlist for the show. Enjoy!

Unveiling the Legacy: Elephants in the Tapestry of Rajasthan

Elephants have played a pivotal role in Rajasthan's history, revered for their strength, loyalty, and intelligence. The Rajput Maharajas, the region's rulers, considered them loyal companions, utilizing them in battles and royal processions. Today, Elefanjoy in Jaipur honors this legacy by providing a sanctuary for rescued and retired elephants. Here, their well-being is paramount, while visitors have the chance to learn about their fascinating world and the vital role they play in the ecosystem.

Beyond the Spectacle: A Multi-Sensory Encounter with Elefanjoy

Elefanjoy offers an experience unlike any other. Here's what awaits you:

Meeting the Mahouts: Begin your journey by connecting with the mahouts, the elephant caretakers. Witness the deep bond they share with their elephant companions, nurtured since the elephants were young calves. Learn about the traditional techniques used for elephant care, passed down through generations, and the immense respect these caretakers have for their charges.

Witnessing Gentle Giants Up Close: Observe the elephants in their spacious enclosures, nestled amidst the scenic Aravalli Hills. No longer confined or chained, they roam freely, interacting playfully, bathing in mud pools, and trumpeting greetings to one another. Through this firsthand observation, you'll gain a deeper appreciation for their social structure, intelligence, and gentle demeanor.

Sensory Enrichment Activities: Elephants are highly intelligent creatures who thrive on mental stimulation. Elefanjoy offers enrichment activities designed to mimic their natural behaviors, promoting cognitive well-being. Watch them solve puzzles for treats, use tools to retrieve objects, and explore their enclosures in a stimulating way, keeping their minds active and engaged.

Engaging in Ethical Interaction:

Elefanjoy prioritizes the well-being of the elephants and avoids practices that may compromise their health or happiness. Here are some ways you can connect with these amazing creatures in an ethical manner:

Elephant Feeding: Prepare a special vegetarian meal for your elephant companions under the guidance of the mahouts. Learn about their dietary needs and witness their joy as they savor the treats you offer. This heartwarming experience allows you to form a genuine connection with these magnificent creatures.

Elephant Bathing Ritual: Witness the refreshing and playful ritual of bathing the elephants. See them frolic in the water, spraying themselves and their mahouts with playful abandon. This experience not only provides the elephants with much-needed relief from the heat but also offers a glimpse into their playful nature.

Nature Walks with Elephants: Elefanjoy offers a unique opportunity to embark on a nature walk alongside these gentle giants. Traverse through the serene Aravalli Hills, experiencing the natural beauty of the region from a whole new perspective, with the majestic elephants as your companions. This unique experience allows you to witness their grace and power as they navigate their natural habitat.

More Than Just a Visit: Supporting Elephant Conservation

Elefanjoy at the Elephant Village is more than just a tourist attraction. It's a dedicated sanctuary that prioritizes the well-being of its resident elephants. A portion of your ticket proceeds goes towards ensuring the elephants receive nutritious food, proper veterinary care, and a comfortable environment. By choosing Elefanjoy, you contribute to the conservation efforts for these magnificent creatures and support initiatives aimed at protecting endangered Asian elephants.

Planning Your Transformative Elephant Experience:

The Elefanjoy sanctuary is conveniently located near Jaipur city center, making it a perfect addition to your Jaipur day tours. Here's what you need to know for your visit:

The sanctuary is open from 11:30 AM to 6:00 PM.

Booking your Elefanjoy experience in advance is recommended, especially during peak tourist season.

Wear comfortable clothing and shoes suitable for walking outdoors.

Respect the elephants' space and avoid making loud noises or sudden movements.

Memories that Last a Lifetime:

Your Elefanjoy experience will be an unforgettable memory that you'll cherish for years to come. You'll leave with a newfound appreciation for the intelligence, social complexity, and gentle nature of elephants. More importantly, you'll contribute to their well-being and conservation efforts.

A commentary on Morgenstern’s Ant-ology

According to the great author Christian Morgenstern, the modern elephant (Elefant in German) is just the youngest member in a long line of numbered "-ants". The first one in this line was the "Gig-ant" (from Greek Γίγαντες, gigantes, compare English "giant"), with "gig" being a number that's so high that it doesn't exist anymore.

Over the eons, the descendants of this humongous beast grew smaller and smaller, giving rise to Oliphants and Hierophants, and eventually reaching numbers known to man. Even then they didn't stop producing smaller and smaller children, until we got the Zwölef-ant (Twelve-ant in English), and even this elusive beast had to give way to a smaller creature, and so our elephant was born, with it's name derived from the number eleven (elf in German).

But the shrinking of the beasts is inevitable, and currently the smallest known one is the Ottifant (from Latin "octo" which means "eight"). These diminutive creatures are only a small shadow of even the Zwölef-ant's glory. Over time they will become smaller and smaller, until there will be nothing more than an Eins-ant (German for "one-ant" or one ant), which may very well be as small and insignificant as it's name tells us. Morgenstern even predicts the Nulel-ant (from German null, zero), the end of the glorious line of -ants.

All this time, the -ants seemed to have a line of cousins, reaching all the way back to the great Behemoth (Hebrew: בהמות‎), of which the bible tells us that it was the first of the works of god. Scholars are still debating what obscure line of numbers gave them their names, but their most well-known represantatives are the mammoths of old Siberia. According to the Khanty people, who knew the mammoths long before Europeans did, those wondrous creatures live underground and will die if they ever come to the surface.

However, newer studies found out that this is only true for a smaller, domesticated kind of -moth which the chinese call yǐn shǔ (隐鼠). These have been bred by dwarven herders for smaller and smaller size, unwittingly speeding up the shrinking of the whole line, in order to use them as beasts of burden in their underground cities. In order to understand their weakness, one has to understand one important thing about dwarves. Every time a dwarf leaves his underground home and get's into contact with the surface world, he is immediately turned to stone, as if the sun was the eye of a giant gorgon that only targets dwarves and trolls.

Due to the strong bond with their dwarven masters, the yǐn shǔ inherited some of their magic, and so they too became a victim of the sunlight. But because the mammoth's element was ice, compared to the rocky element of the dwarves, they get frozen to ice every time they leave their tunnels. Some scholars think that this makes it possible to bring the creatures back to life, but none of the attempts have proven successful so far. The icy element runs deep in the -ant's and -moth's families, as even Bartholomaeus Anglicus knew that an elephants blood is so cold that the fiery dragon desires nothing more than it's sweet cooling.

It has to be made clear that this creature is not the same as the fabled "dwarf elephant", which seems to be a Tenant of some islands in the mediterranian and is probably closer related to the giant cyclops than to actual dwarves. Morgenstern knew this beast under the name "Zehen-ant" (from German "zehn", which means "ten").

I also bears mentioning that according to some studies, the close connection between the yǐn shǔ and the dwarves mirrors the connection between elephants and elves (Elfen in German). This can be seen in the German word for ivory, which is Elfenbein (bone of the elves).

It has been proposed that the last known member of the -moth-line would be a creature called "ammoth", which is described as having a long snout similar to a crocodile. While this seems far-fetched, it really reminds us of the beast that wise men call Platybelodon. In truth, the name ammoth seems to be a corruption of the Egyptian ꜥm-mwt, which is more well known today as "ammit" and seems to be another creature altogether, not related to the -ants and -moths of old.

After that, the trail of the -moths gets lost as did their antedeluvian home in sunken Doggerland, and we can only hope that we didn't already end with One-Moth which flew into the fire of extinction and was never seen again. But there is still hope, as some suggest that the mammoth (or man-moth) really just turned around and became a much more human-like creature in order to hide in plain sight.

NY / After Our Bodies Meet

Cyriaco Lopes, Sunset (documentation of a performance), 1997, Inkjet Print, 4” x 6″

After Our Bodies Meet January 9 – February 14, 2021 The gallery will be open every Sat & Sun from 3 – 6pm and by appointment

Tiger Strikes Asteroid New York is pleased to present After Our Bodies Meet, a group exhibition curated by Daniel Johnson, featuring works by Margrethe Aanestad, Daniel Arturo Almeida, Dalia Amara, Cyriaco Lopes, and Randy West.

In the novel Tar Baby, Toni Morrison wrote, “At some point in life the world's beauty becomes enough. You don't need to photograph, paint or even remember it. It is enough.” Exploring themes of love and memory, the artists in this show have created works that grapple with how we relate to each other and ultimately posit the question: What is enough? Whether through the investigation of familial bonds as with Almeida and Amara’s work, romantic love in West’s series, or the nature of being in the work of Aanestad and Lopes, the works in this show evoke an ethos of delicateness and a celebration of impermanence.

Margrethe Aanestad

is a Norwegian-born artist (1974), living and working in Brooklyn, NY and Stavanger, Norway. Aanestad studied fine arts at the Rogaland Art College and graduated with a BA from the University of Stavanger in Culture&Art Management (2000). She works in drawing, painting and sculpture, and has exhibited internationally at galleries including Open Source Gallery, NY; Torrance Shipman, NY; Dimensions Variable, Miami; Interface gallery, CA; Kunsthall Stavanger (Norway), Abingdon Studios, England. Since 2001 she has worked independently to initiate, produce, and curate projects at the art scene in Stavanger, where she also co-founded and co-directed the artist-run, non-profit, space Prosjektrom Normanns (2011- 2020). She is one of the co-founders and co-owner of the creative studio/working space ELEFANT (est 2013-). Aanestad serves on the advisory board of Kunsthall Stavanger and Open Source Gallery (NYC). Currently she is working on a commission for NYU/Clive Davis Institute, and will soon enter a 3 month-residency at Residency Unlimited, NY.

Daniel Arturo Almeida

(b. 1992. Caracas, Venezuela) is a cultural producer and artist working through photography, installation, archiving, journalism, and public engagement. His practice chronicles intimate and collective stories that shape belief systems and hierarchies of power in the Americas. The product of generational migrations, Almeida researches images, music, anecdotes, and documents portraying national pride, nostalgia, and collective amnesia. The work observes shared culture through loss, decadence, hope, and empathy. He has exhibited in The U.S.A in various institutions, galleries, and festivals, including La Salita Project, Columbia Teachers College, Project for Empty Space, Satellite Art Show, Doral Contemporary Art Museum, and the SVA Chelsea Galleries, among others. Almeida holds an MFA in Fine Arts from the School of Visual Arts (2020) and a BFA in Painting and Installation from Florida International University (2017). He currently lives and works in Queens, NY.

Dalia Amara is an American-Jordanian multidisciplinary artist in New York working in photography, video, performance, and sculpture. Amara was raised in the US, Jordan, Egypt, Qatar, and UAE. She received her MFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York, and her BFA from Columbia College Chicago. Amara has lectured, screened, and exhibited in New York, Toronto, and online at White Columns, Gallery 44, and Selena Gallery. Her work has been reviewed in The New Yorker, Artnet News, and The Art Newspaper.

He received grants to attend the London Project residency and Skowhegan. Lopes is an associate professor of art at John Jay College / the City University of New York. He also teaches in the Stetson University low residency M.F.A. of the Americas in Poetry in the Expanded Field.

Randy West (born 1960 in Indianapolis, Indiana) is an American fine art photographer, perhaps best known for his distinctive and avant-garde scanner use of the photographic medium, as seen across several series of his work. West is also on the faculty of the School of Visual Arts, and a director of the school's Master of Fine Arts program for photography, video, and related media. West has been represented by the Bruce Silverstein Gallery in New York and the Craig Krull Gallery in Los Angeles. He has had solo exhibitions at Jan Kesner Gallery, Yancey Richardson Gallery, Stephen Wirtz Gallery, the Houston Center for Photography, and as part of the Here Theater Project. His work has also appeared in group exhibitions, including exhibitions with the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, the International Center for Photography, the San Diego Contemporary Art Museum, the Center for Creative Photography in Tucson, and the Marlborough Gallery.

Daniel AnTon Johnson is an artist with a diverse practice based in photography, language, film, and video. His work examines how technology shapes notions of identity within popular culture and contemporary visual media. Focusing on authorship and representation, Johnson’s practice explores cultural and visual literacies and how they form worldviews. Johnson has taught and lectured at School of Visual Arts, Adelphi University, Rutgers University-Newark, and Columbia University, and mentored teens at ICP and The Harlem School of the Arts. Johnson holds an MFA in Photography, Video and Related Media from the School of Visual Arts, and an MA in English from Washington College. He currently resides in Brooklyn.
