Le babillard

La grande (et la dernière) migration

Vous aurez remarqué que je ne partage presque plus rien ici. La raison est simple, après avoir tester la plateforme, je décide de délaisser Mon Babillard tumblr pour le transposer chez Posterous. Puisque je partage beaucoup de contenu textuel, je trouve Posterous plus approprié pour cet exercice.

Par contre, lepapagamer.tumblr.com demeurera à son adresse actuel puisque son type de contenu cadre complètement dans l’environnement et la communauté de tumblr. Je prévois y devenir plus actif dans les prochains jours/semaines. À suivre!

Merci à tous ceux qui m’ont suivi et j’espère bien vous voir de l’autre côté. :P

Biology, after all, is not plants and animals, it is a special language employed to speak about plants and animals.” Similarly aesthetics is not painting, design, or architecture; it is a special language designed to speak about these subjects, namely the language of interaction between form and content.

Quote

Time can, and does, erase meaning of once familiar artifacts, but time can never erase form.

This is the true joy in life, being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. Being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as I live it is my privilege - my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I love. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me; it is a sort of splendid torch which I’ve got a hold of for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.

“SEASON 5”

It’s a term I’ve heard bandied about here around Hollywood & Vine. It’s akin to “JUMPING THE SHARK”. It’s idiomatic usage implies that A THING has lost it’s Inner logic/ethos & essence. It’s what happens when the creator of said THING surrenders to; PRODUCERS/AGENTS/WIVES & LOVERS…

SEASON 5 is when the people on the sidelines say: “That’s not so hard, I can do that, and then take a stab at doing it.”

Late in a recording session Randy Travis told this story: “Ya know, people are always comin’ up to me and saying I WRITE SONGS TOO. So I ask them, then write me a song? Inevitably they reply back, O.K., can you first give me an IDEA? To which I say, EXACTLY! Without an IDEA you ain’t got a song!”

Look at the job posts in advertising today; SOCIAL MEDIA EXPERT/FLASH KNOWLEDGE IMPERATIVE/CS5 EXPERT… They’re not seeking THINKERS but DOERS, not ARCHITECTS but CARPENTERS! They place more value on making the thing, than on the quality of the thing.

HR Gatekeepers look not at books, but mostly (and mostly only) at resumes. Remember when people who ruled staffs, used to write the stuff? Remind me again what campaigns have; Levy/Roth/Sorrell/Wren… written? WELCOME TO ADVERTISING’S 5th SEASON.
