Dis-OWN-ing the digital
Benjamin wrote something somewhere about how one of capitalism's goals is to allow the freedom of expression without changing property relationships. Once our freedom's expressions are reducible to 1s and 0s and can be flickered out with the flip of a switch, it's time to say they've (WE'VE) won. We must confront death at the speed of light in a world of disjointed space and time. I'm disowning the digital. I will use it, but on its terms, in its space - not my own.

if I should die before I wake
How much would it cost to buy into it?
To get my foot started in the door?
I want to think that art for art's sake
or life for life's sake
of food for food's sake
means something other than
my sake for my sake
but buying into anything means
spending on a Thing
as if my wealth were mine.
realizing that my wealth is not mine
comes even with no wealth at all
so
even if I have a life
it cannot be my own
because that would be cheating.
there are only two ends:
myself or not myself
: Who am I to make much of me?
