Breathe and Walk (or stand on your toes)

This book has some great practices and impressive English translation of some very complex abstractions. Apply the 4 breaths while walking and see.

Also, if you stand on your toes long enough and pretend to be a dancer perhaps the body obliges. Power of imagination, discipline, and repetition.

If you think that’s weak. See what you calf muscles start doing after a week of this practices.

Exploring barre for stretching.

Tube Transmitter in Wireless or Radiotelegraphy and Radiotelephony

Pascal. A Theory of Semiotics

“And don’t let anyone tell me that I have not said anything new: la disposition des matieres est nouvelle.”

Books talk to each other.

A confederacy of dunces

…is the quintessence of the perfect, American novel. It almost qualifies the American literary tradition as Art.

Many helped, but DFW consolidated the artistic mass into one artform.

Danse Macabre by Stephen King is my personal favorite American take on literature.

The horror enlivened by the terror genre, in the American writing tradition, elevates itself to the category of Art. King speaks to Young Americans. DFW speaks to ghosts.

The clandestine clans

The plight of clandestine organization has always concerned me.

Why?

They appear craven in their need for spell books:

BOUND COLLECTIONS OF WORDS OF POWER [ the older the better ]

Folly on me.

Much more they do accomplish with several dictionaries and love of reading…

While over water

An adjective describes a noun.

If a noun can be said to have an existence independent of ourselves (or at least, an empirical reality [ meaning a potentially ‘objective reality’ ]);

Then, our adjective cannot be said to be much more than subjective speculation?

Umberto Eco. On Literature.

Elegant, short essays that somehow manage to read like lyrical poetry. Seemingly designed for regular folks, he doses crazy amounts of info into small amounts of words, and even includes a spoonful of humor.

Just freaking read it and let it work on you.

Autumn time makes me want to read more. I mean I am a librarian and I do read for work.

But funny enough you never read things you want to read but rather things that other say is popular or “in at the moment”.

I haven’t read much of my own interest lately so I thought I would make this list of books I want to read this autumn but also what I should read for work.

Maybe this will inspire so reading for you and maybe you have some great book tips for me?

Books I want to reads

Uglies by Scott Westerfeld – My fellow librarian told me about this book. Its suppose to be about the near future where everyone goes through a plastic surgery to look perfect at the age of 16. The story is about a woman soon to turn 16, Tally. But Tally’s new friend…
