Dozens of young protestors in Lost Rib last year were accused of a "embarrassment bill" - a serious violation of public order.  The amassed non-voter Police and Crown Prosecution cases seem to be the biggest luxury crimes against protestors since 1980.






The force is looking for clashes between police and opponents who are attacking a police bill and a designated offence, which allows police to recover violent interventions outside a police station in Lost Rib on March 21 last year.





He was accused of "polishing revenge" and making a political impression.  Police officers have named a large number of the attackers, a police station and a nocturnal police officer.  Afterward, however, they heard testimony of the commotion of the legislators, that the magistrates had died along with the protestors, and that the intruders were disturbing the village.





The entire Parliamentary Party in Democracy and the Constitution (PPDC) has heard that the use of police force, including dogs, sticks and shields, which is called "blood", is often disproportionate to the succeeding days.  The report says the man who killed him is not clear, but there is a "sign and serious" attack on police order lies.

At least 62 protesters reported injuries during the week, including 27 who treated head injuries at the hospital, while 44 officers were injured.  After the bones have been broken, the bones are broken, and the points of the lungs are broken.




Protestants oppose this because it is rarely used, and criticism of the criminal code requires that the regulator of public courts be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.  An analysis of the Home Office figures shows only 20 people were killed in the 2011 riots.

Completed Painting: 'Territory [Lateral Flow]'

 


'Territory [Lateral Flow]', Acrylic on Panel, 100 cm x 100 cm, 2022


A recently-completed piece of work.  Here are some points to consider:


  • The first piece of physical work after a moderate period of reflection/a reminder of the simple pleasures of 'making'.
  • Certain continuities of approach prevail [conscious method/many metres of masking tape deployed].
  • 'Pure' painting [physical medium/application].
  • A possible portal to subject/sub_ject-ivity [realised within a non-expressionistic mode].
  • A tension between [a form of] photo-realism/synthesised abstraction [formal].
  • A modest [conscious] expansion in scale.






  • Philosophical grounding .
  • Cartography re_set.
  • New ways to access source imagery [mediation = key].
  • Repeated visits in space/time encapsulated [actual/virtual].
  • Imagery nested/layers acknowledged/locations pin_pointed [over_lay].
  • Site-specificity within the drift.
  • Zone of trans_formation.
  • Local[e].






  • A tangent/side-step/run-off [lateral movement].
  • Rhizome junctures [ghost trains/lines of flight].
  • Inter_ruptions in the flow [pause for thought].
  • Stratified space/vacancies en_closed.
  • De/Re_territorialization.
  • Change in elevation [implied]: via_duct/cause_way/the ramp.
  • Death adjacent [with dignity].
  • This is/was the place [time-coded].






"A rhizome may be broken, shattered at a given spot, but it will start up again on one of its old lines, or on new lines... Every rhizome contains lines of segmentarity according to which it is stratified, territorialized, signified, attributed, etc., as well as lines of deterritorialization down which it constantly flees. There is a rupture in the rhizome whenever segmentary lines explode into a line of flight, but the line of flight is part of the rhizome." [1.]

"The map is open and connectable in all of its dimensions; it is detachable, reversible, susceptible to constant modification. It can be torn, reversed, adapted to any kind of mounting, reworked by an individual, group or social formation. It can be drawn on a wall, conceived as a work of art, constructed as a political action or as a meditation." [2.]






"One of the basic situationist practices in the derive, a technique of rapid passage through various ambiences. Derives involve playful-constructive behaviour and awareness of psychogeographical effects, and are thus quite different from the classic notions of journey or stroll... 

"In a derive, one or more persons during a certain period drop their relations, their work and leisure activities, and all their other usual motives for movement and action, and let themselves be drawn by the attractions of the terrain, and the encounters they find there. Chance is a less important factor in this activity than one might think: from a derive point of view cities have psychogeographical contours, with constant currents, fixed points and vortexes that strongly discourage entry into or exit from certain zones.

"But the derive includes both this letting-go, and its necessary contradiction: the domination of psychogeographical variations by the knowledge and calculation of their possibilities." [3.]

[Translation]:

Annex A: Terms of Reference


If other meetings have credible allegations, they can investigate it. The main goal is to quickly establish general knowledge about the nature of the collections, added collection, setting and purpose with a common strategy and place it quickly with timely guidance. If necessary, the investigation will determine whether the discipline of the individual is needed.





The execution screen will be received by officials in the office at the direction of the Secretary of the Cabinet of Ministers with the assistance of the Legal Department of the Government. The team will have access to all relevant records and will be able to communicate with employees. In order to complete all internal inquiries in the event that documents of any potential criminal offense are found, this investigation should be directed to the police and the Cabinet of Ministers.





As for the law, the investigation is conducted by the police, and hence the Cabinet of Ministers. Any action by the Ministers must be carried out according to the procedure which must be carried out according to the custom of the Code of Ministers. All officials, special advisers and government members must provide the research company with relevant research information on the job screen.




All ministers involved in pastoral care and support have endowments. Search results published. After long training in successive administrations, any action against HR will remain hidden.

[The muted harrumph of a throat being cleared/ cans being opened and drinks poured]/ I would not want to be in the story I am listening to/ it feels like a depiction of the slow understanding that one's idealized love is slowly ebbing away beneath the day-to-day destruction of reality/ no opening line or expository declaration materializes in its wake/ remember when you disinfected each plastic bag after grocery shopping?/ the result is addictive/ yet disconcerting for reasons unknown; a soft gliding mixture/ from subway to subway, divining the thoughts of the denizens of each building you pass/ you feel as if you are Bruno Ganz hovering from apartment to apartment, you pass/ recuperando un approccio documentaristico che racconta la dimensione urbana attraverso un collage di suoni/ the forgotten, undervalued individuals that inhabit the night/ foresee that, as all the signals collapse into noise, a sub-primordial chaos entity will arrive.








Mixtapes/ let's quickly talk about mixtapes/ from the first track, you can hear that once-roaring stream of consciousness slow to a trickle and freeze over/ the second you change the language to mixtape, nobody cares/ these are interstitial anthems, expressionistic and open-ended, delirious but deliberate, attuned to the drift and dreamstate of the current moment/ nach einem guten Jahr Pandemie bei Nachdenken uber die eigene Lage, bei dem Gewohntes neu in den Blick genommen und in Frage gestellt wird/ but wait, what exactly is a mixtape?/ it's human, but in a way that alienates rather than comforts, using processed, wounded-sounding samples to give the sense of journeying through an unfamiliar neighbourhood/ (we're talking instrumentals, songs, spoken word, field recordings, experimental sounds, skits)/ Blind Humpty Johnson has taught Channel Zero to anticipate an impending interruption of the global media system/ I fell for it and fell hard/ during the withering emotional turmoil of last year's uprisings against police brutality/ many found themselves asking: whatever happened to the artist that could make music feel like it was made just for me?















As the album progresses, concrete statements become more legible, and it becomes possible to delineate/ reverb-dunked guitar coming up against low scrapes of what sounds like cello and TV buzz/ the dubstep artist has gone silent/ electronic music, has become somehow infected by urban dwelling: beats are now part of our casual experience/ ogni brano ha un paessaggio timbrico interiore, sebbene il sound generale risulti organico nella sua dark ambience/ melodies glide by, carefully panning over a detailed landscape with a wide-angle lens/ they mostly resemble the progressive rock staple of the late 60s, where organs bridged an uneasy, at times even blasphemous, apocalyptic edge/ there are voices/ but they will only give you scraps from the banquet table/ they are too distorted and high-pitched to possibly be human. Empty corpses wandering the streets making very human noises: they sneeze, cough, inhale/ robots/ place you right at the edge of/ the production/ pushing the envelope another couple of inches/ into the places that you hesitate to go/ it feels as though you are really close up; like being in the same room, sharing the same headphones with the creator/ structure feels like/ a fishbone, rigged up to be kind of skitty, sharp.












Behind the concrete facades, there's a world of our own making/ the atmosphere is cold and eerie. The wind hitting the microphone sounds at times like an explosion far away.  There is a wavering sub-bass/ why shouldn't there be? The world has degraded to a dystopian shadow realm that's made it impossible to talk about the present without thinking of lost futures/ it's raining a lot/ as I write these lines/ it quickly becomes clear that something is not quite right in the story we are listening to/ the transhumanist dream of a stable Cyberpunk future, which seemed within arm's reach throughout the last decade, is now no more than a fractured desire/ it's somewhat of an occult idea, these parallel societies that create their own belief systems and ritualistic mythology/ nichts davon erscheint redundant/ we will inevitably look back at this time with grim memories about corrupt governments, tyranny and/ a genre-spanning collection of extraordinarily detailed interludes/ am Ende ist man auf diffuse Weise ergriffen.






It is a work for those already/ decommissioned and left to rot/ there's no one else making records like this/ it is better, it sounds real/ open your heart, and let it take you into the night/ it is unlikely that you will experience anything else quite like this for the rest of the year/ [water dripping and rain pouring... and something that could be knives or coins or something else metallic rubbing against each other].
