I read the Guy Davenport essay “Symbol of the Archaic” last night (highly recommend, along with the whole collection Geography of the Imagination, to anyone who hasn’t read). And god fuckin damn, this one rung my brain like a gong

I really like the evil as infinite regress point. Good episode thank you Michael. Also I love whales!

Louie Van Patten

Oh damn, definitely gonna try to talk my lady into listening to this one.

Really enjoyed this episode. The section about knowledge stretching out into a maze rings especially true in my own area of interest, microbial ecology. Insert something here about unknown unknowns. This episode really crystallized a distinct biologically-inflected strain of thought that I've always felt in this show, and in what I've read of your writing, which I think represents a real progression in thinking about literature (to put it narrowly) and society (to put it generally). D&G start to gesture at it with all the rhizome stuff, but I think they pull it back into an abstraction that muddies it. We spoke very briefly, ages ago, about the deep state as a kind of mycellial network running through and between the world, a description which has really stuck with me. And to your point about generation loss: that's how evolution happens. It looks like loss but ultimately is a kind of becoming. Reading over this again it feels a tad disjointed, I suppose I just want to say that I think you're doing great work.

The Real Spiro Agnew

How serendipitous you would mention the Sphinx because the whole Clarel/unspeaking towers section made me think of that gorgeous painting by Elihu Vedder, The Questioner of the Sphinx. I wonder if you have any thoughts on that supposedly lost post-CM novel, Isle of the Cross?

“Diane, 11:30 a.m., February 24th. Entering the town of Twin Peaks, five miles south of the Canadian border, twelve miles west of the state line. I've never seen so many trees in my life. As W.C. Fields would say, I'd rather be here than Philadelphia.”

Hemlock

But, far as any geologist has yet gone down into the world, it is found to consist of nothing but surface stratified on surface. To its axis, the world being nothing but superinduced superficies. By vast pains we mine into the pyramid; by horrible gropings we come to the central room; with joy we espy the sarcophagus; but we lift the lid—and no body is there!—appallingly vacant as vast is the soul of a man!

The white album was the last where the Beatles only worked on the mono mix and the stereo was an afterthought. Abbey Road eg has a primary stereo mix. But the reason the recent remixes of pepper and abbey road are interesting is that they ‘un-bounced’ the rhythm section. The original drum tapes had been sitting unused since the recording, discarded after the first generation of bounce down. They used those to make the remix, bringing the drums (at least) forward some number of generations of fidelity

I think this was last episode but i wanted to mention i THINK the idea of "confusionism" was something Liz Franczak said originally but I'm not POSITIVE

John Waaben

Fantastic ep, looking forward to what you got cooking with Melville

Read Pierre and finally "got" Moby-Dick in the tail end of last year so this episode hits about as rightly as I could have asked for. I found myself thinking about whether Pierre can serve as a sort of near prequel for Moby-Dick, where instead of dying Pierre embraces the brief call of the sea that comes near the end. Thrusted further into the search for truth by becoming obsessed with the stark grandure of the whale as a last gasping protest against the impossibility that suffocates him in the novel itself. I've been thinking a lot about Deleuze and gnosticism lately and whether there's a sort of "empirical gnosis" to Deleuze, where this that we see isn't exactly real, but there's nothing under it, and instead we're left staring at it until it all becomes an overbearing blur that becomes stuff and is itself as much nothing as it is everything. If that makes any sense. I need to now read Pierre again.

As a child I read the Great Illustrated Classics children's abridged Moby Dick, and for the longest time thought that was it. That I had read the great American novel at the age of 9. Now it seems absurd that children were being invited to engage with Moby Dick at all. Cocomelon can't sell ads on that shit.

The bit at the end about the Minotaur and the labyrinth makes me wonder if you’ve ever read House of Leaves. If so, what did you think of it? (I suspect I know the answer.)

Orge Georgwell

Michael, have you read Mood Machine about the rise of Spotify? Reading it has made me think a lot about your episodes on the electrical versus the mechanical, and now here about generation loss. I feel stuck between two different types of prisons, the one where reading books like this, an excavation of knowledge, leaves me face to face with myself the minotaur, and the other that electrocapital spires like Spotify leave you locked inside of, the wallpaper that keeps you from digging your way into the first kind of prison.

I didn't read Mobey Dick in High School, but for some reason they made us read fucking Anthem by Ayn Rand. Which out of all of her dogshit books is the most flagrant and pathetic example of her pathologized psycho-sexual hysteria about socialism.

Damn this is a great episode. They're all honestly great, but you got a nice tapestry of seemingly unrelated things that make such an interesting 'whole' here. Describing the simultaneous concreteness of The Shape of History but the way we all see and interpret the same Thing through myriad perspectives, growing increasingly fractured and being at the mercy of this loss of fidelity, for everybody everywhere, and that it's basically entropic, (or perhaps 'anti-entopic'– dicey word, i know–depending on the perspective you view the product you get with each generation loss...), at least how I'm understanding it right now, after listening to this, to the point of, well, creating yet another contour to The Shape to those paying enough attention and... That'll create another round of "fidelity loss" in both the collected grouping of every round of loss prior to, as well as a loss to whatever... watered down, mangled, but unique(?) qualities The Shape has for you now...? Alright. I will cease from not shutting the fuck up. Another Great One...

I love when you do readings, I understand that it's unlikely to happen but I would be stoked to listen to an audio book narrated by you

No

Moby Dick always reminds me of Belfast Maine. Wiseman goes deep into the small sleepy town and uses Moby dick as his lynch pin to hang everything on. Amazing work as always
