@jrmamana same

@pinakotheca love the gay stuff hope to see more

[noah @newmachinebaby]

I bring in baudrillard to emphasize the totalizing nature of this violence, a passive acceptance of the “real” which alienates us from the material circumstances of war and which I’m engaging in as we speak by posting on this dumb platform lol

[noah @newmachinebaby]

Sorry I was being inflammatory. what i meant was that it seems contradictory to claim solidarity or even knowledge of the violence the US inflicts globally if you're doing it thru indulgent and commodified means like some sloganeering image at coachella

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@blublutera They just can’t keep me away

[noah @newmachinebaby]

shitty band subsumes a genocide into their shitty commodity

[carla★ @inmys1eep]

showing this at coachella is so important

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@angelographie what is this from?

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @girltaaaalk @sigrat69 @CalligraphiaDei You can insult me but I draw the line at bataille. We’re done here

@girltaaaalk @jrmamana @sigrat69 @CalligraphiaDei

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @girltaaaalk @sigrat69 @CalligraphiaDei Maybe it’s more interesting to consider that neither of those instruments existed when Bach wrote. I guess rock n roll couldn’t have happened without an amp, but that’s neither here nor there. “In spain there was guernica” and so on

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @girltaaaalk @sigrat69 @CalligraphiaDei Put 3 pickups on a sitar and you can get pretty close to Keven shields’ sound on “loveless”

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @girltaaaalk @sigrat69 @CalligraphiaDei @girltaaaalk I believe this is what lou reed played on metal machine music(?)

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @girltaaaalk @sigrat69 @CalligraphiaDei I guess it doesn’t change that james blood ulmer could have played the banjo poorly

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @girltaaaalk @sigrat69 @CalligraphiaDei Yeah, he plays violin on “the empty foxhole” and “live at the golden circle” for example, both great recordings!

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @sigrat69 @CalligraphiaDei I suppose ornette coleman played the violin

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @sigrat69 @CalligraphiaDei Do you feel like it’s incidental that jimi hendrix played the electric guitar? On an ontological and material level?

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @sigrat69 you can look at Bo Diddley or Chuck Berry and see a radical transformation of style and form which is specific to the e.g. or Elizabeth Cotten to see a distinct and singular example of acoustic guitar playing. Also I don’t use Spotify; Daniel Ek is a genocidal freak who hates art

[noah @newmachinebaby]

@jrmamana @sigrat69 the more interesting conversation here is about how the electric guitar radically transformed American music in the development of the blues and early rock n roll. Lightnin hopkins played acoustic and electric guitar at different points in his career, but
