R.D. Laing - The Divided Self
Pelican Books 734, 1971
Cover Design by Martin Bassett
An Existential Study in Sanity and Madness
I first heard about this when I was 21, while I was dwelling on my own existential anguish, fueled by reading JD Salinger, Sartre and Kafka literature. Ten years later, this essay/spoken word song still rings true. Please read throughout because i really hope it enlightens whoever reads it the way it did me.
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proven by scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Nevermind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.
You’re not as fat as you imagine.
Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum.
The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing everyday that scares you.
Sing.
Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts, don’t put up with people who are reckless with yours.
Floss.
Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes you’re behind. The race is long, and in the end, it’s only with yourself.
Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch.
Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don’t.
Get plenty of calcium.
Be kind to your knees, you’ll miss them when they’re gone.
Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll have children,maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. What ever you do, don’t congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either – your choices are half chance, so are everybody else’s.
Enjoy your body, use it every way you can. Don’t be afraid of it, or what other people
think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever own..
Dance. Even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room. Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them.
Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.
Get to know your parents, you never know when they’ll be gone for good.
Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go,but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do you’ll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders. Respect your elders.
Don’t expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one
might run out.
Don’t mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will look 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than
it’s worth.
But trust me on the sunscreen.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTJ7AzBIJoI
Mary Schmich's "Advice, like youth, probably just wasted on the young" was published in the Chicago Tribune as a column on June 1, 1997. In her introduction to the column, she described it as the commencement address she would give if she were asked to give one.
The essay was used in its entirety by Australian film director Baz Luhrmann on his 1998 album Something for Everybody, as "Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)."

The kit and its assembly:
This fictional tank model came to be as a classic what-if, based on the question “what could have been a successor of the Soviet ZSU-57-2 SPAAG?”. Not an existential question that comes to your mind frequently, but it made me wonder – also because the real-world successor, the ZSU-23-4 “Shilka”, lacked the ZSU-57-2’s range and large-caliber firepower.
From this conceptual basis I decided to retain the 57mm twin guns, add an RPK-2 radar and mount these into a fully enclosed turret. The latter became a leftover M48 turret, which was suitably bulky, and the gun mount was taken from a Modelcollect E-75 SPAAG. However, both were heavily modified: the gun mount lost its boxy armor protection, just the brass barrels and the joint at the base were retained, the rest was scratched from styrene bits and wire. To accept the much taller weapon mount, the turret front had to be re-sculpted with putty, resulting in a boxier shape with steeper side walls – but the whole affair looks very organic. A simpler commander cupola was used and the whole radar dish arrangement on the rear roof was scratched, too.
The hull came from a Trumpeter T-62, just for the reasons explained in the background: the T-54/55 had a relatively small turret ring, and this caused severe development problems, because the MBT could not take a bigger turret and with it a more powerful cannon. Since this SPAAG would have been developed a couple of years later than the T-54/55, its successor, the T-62, appeared logical, and the “marriage” with the M48 turret worked like a charm. Even the turret’s adapter had the same diameter as the hull opening, I just had to modify the notches that hold it in place! The hull itself remained unmodified.
Painting and markings:
I wanted to place this SPAAG into the Afghanistan theatre of operations, and this was historically not very easy since I had to bridge some fifteen years of service to make this idea work. However, I found a story for the background, and the model received an appropriate paint scheme, based on real world vehicles around 1980 (actually from a BMP-1 operated in northern Afghanistan).
The camouflage consists of three tones, a pale/greyish sand, an olive drab tone and some contrasts in a dark, dull brown – it reminds of the US Army’s more complex MERDC scheme. The paints became Humbrol 167 (Hemp), Tamiya XF-62 (Olive Drab) and Humbrol 98 (Chocolate), even though the green appears darker than expected due to the high contrast with the sand tone.
The model received an overall washing with dark brown, highly thinned acrylic paint, and some dry-brushing with cream, faded olive drab and light grey. The few markings/decals were taken from the T-62 kit, and everything was sealed with matt acrylic varnish before the lower areas were finally dusted with a greyish-sand brown mix of artist pigments, simulating dust.
It suddenly became clear—despite being surrounded by others, Clarissa was. . . alone.
All existential questions aside, we had another awful experience—as I was focusing the camera on Clarissa and the homeless Barbies at the thrift store (and this on the way home from the dentist), a hand reached into the frame and grabbed Clarissa off the shelf!
Me: Wait, wait! She’s mine!
Lady: Well, she was just sitting there on the shelf!
The lady reluctantly handed her back to me, and I stuffed her back in her carry bag and hurried to the car, cradling her close. It felt like attempted kidnapping!
And then on the way home someone rear-ended my car.
It really is Friday the Thirteenth! My doll and my car are intact, but my soul is a bit scraped.

Circa 1973. Miss Isabel Thomason was an instructor in the English Dept. She was the teacher of my Existential Literature class. She engaged her students in discussing the readings very effectively
you will hear the part of you that knows. I have been battling my seasonal bout of depression, and the resulting existential angst. When I am in this place I get so caught up in self doubt, self examination, and the dreadful sense that time is running out. I focus so hard on what I don't know, that I forget to stop and take stock of what I do know. Yesterday I was at the bookstore browsing, when I came across some images in a magazine by Kurt Weston , an artist that is going blind. He creates portraits with a scanner, that are distorted in a way that represents the way he currently sees the world. This made me remember what I set out to do several years ago. I never intended to do straight photography, but I get sidetracked so easily. I decided to see what my $99 HP 3 in 1 could do for me. This is it. A reminder that if we take the time to stop, and just be, we can find a way through the darkness.
I should say that the bird pendant I wear is a favorite of mine. Made my the amazing Cynthia Thornton of Green Girl studios. The back is inscribed with a Rumi quote "let the beauty of what you love be what you do". How perfect is that!
This is Leibniz' Theorem crocheted in Peirce's existential graph-notation. I changed between cuts by switching from white to black, this way it is even easier to distinguish negative and positive contexts.
The theorem in standard notation: (A->B)and (C->D) ->(A and C->B and D).
Which is on the photo: If yellow imples red and blue implies green, then yellow and blue imply red and green.
Check out wikipedia for an explanation of existential graphs.
Walking on foot brings you down to the very stark, naked core of existence. We travel too much in airplanes and cars. It’s an existential quality that we are losing. It’s almost like a credo of religion that we should walk.
There is, of course, something inherently romantic—if not heroic—about the extreme solitary explorer enveloped by nature. The very image of Herzog on foot recalls the iconic 19th-century paintings of Caspar David Friedrich, especially his Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog, with its lone figure staring out at the wide vista above the clouds.
'Truth itself wanders through the forests,' Herzog writes near the end. Yet here he embroiders his memories for effect: The vast swath of geography between Munich and Paris is littered with industrial towns and cities.
Once he comes out on the other end, traversing the deforested Champs-Élysées (“We were close to what they call the breath of danger”), Herzog emerges victorious.

THE STORY/ The „Twentythird Year„ is a coming of age performance of a young protagonist TRACY trying to make a very own picture of the world. The death of a friend in confrontation with the police and the search for black roots after an easy white childhood triggers new existential questions and problems. Historically the peace from 1988 is the 1st BLACK DRAMA intervention by the Afro German Diaspora struggling for its own public voice in Germany.

DIE GESCHICHTE/ DAS „DREIUNDZWANZIGSTE JAHR ist eine Coming of Age Inszenierung in der ein/e Protagonist_In namens TRACY versucht sich ein Bild von der Welt zu machen. Das Trauma eine Freundin in der Auseinandersetzung mit der Polizei verloren zu haben und die Suche nach den eigenen kulturellen Wurzeln führen nach einer unbeschwerten „weissen" Kindheit plötzlich zu neuen existentiellen Fragen und Problemen.
Er/ Sie TRACY versucht sich an Befreiung innerhalb einer rassistischen Sprach-Kultur, in der Rassengesetze die Existenz von Schwarzen Deutschen per Gesetzgebung zu verbieten suchten.
Hier enteignet sich nun mehr die Sprache selber. Sie de-konstruiert ihre eigenen Grundstrukturen in Frage stellend und zerfetzt den strukturellen Alttagsrassismus, um im Zusammenspiel mit Musik und Perfomance Identitätsdiskurse zwischen Schwarz und Weiss und Frau und Mann neu zu verhandeln.

Eine Identität innerhalb einer weissen postkolonialen Kultur, die die Verantwortung für den Genozid in Namibia ablehnt und sich gleichzeitig gegen Apartheid in Südafrika engagiert, oder sich gegen Rassismus in den USA empört. Denn Rassismus in Deutschland gibt es nicht.

Welche Zukunft hat die Liebe unter solchen Bedingungen? Black gifted und Blue endet die Geschichte so auch mit dem Bewusstsein um das individuelle Scheitern angesichts die sozialen Dimension und Ausmaasse der Bedingungen. Die Wiedervereinigung sollte die latenten Rassismen einer nicht aufgearbeiteten kolonialen Vergangenheit, sowohl in Ost als auch in West Deutschland nach der Wiedervereinigung in Terror-Attacken gegen deutsche People of Colour zum Explodieren im Blutrausch bringen.
Die Geschichte ist inspiriert von dem Prosastück „Das dreissigste Jahr" von Ingeborg Bachmann, die als Teil der Gruppe 47 entscheidene Impulse im Nachkriegsdeutschland setzen konnte und setzt dagegen Hip Hop-Elemente aus dem von dem Black Power und civil-rights Struggle inspirierten Consciousness Movement speziell der radikalen Coleur von PUBLIC ENEMY.

EXISTENTIAL THREATS: PREPARING FOR THE NEXT GLOBAL HEALTH CRISIS
In a hyperconnected world rife with virulent pathogens, preparedness is our best defense. After Ebola roared through West Africa and the novel coronavirus brought the world to its knees, the most pressing question for the safety of the global population is this: What have we learned—and how can we better prepare for the next hyper-contagious disease?

This fictional tank model came to be as a classic what-if, based on the question “what could have been a successor of the Soviet ZSU-57-2 SPAAG?”. Not an existential question that comes to your mind frequently, but it made me wonder – also because the real-world successor, the ZSU-23-4 “Shilka”, lacked the ZSU-57-2’s range and large-caliber firepower.
From this conceptual basis I decided to retain the 57mm twin guns, add an RPK-2 radar and mount these into a fully enclosed turret. The latter became a leftover M48 turret, which was suitably bulky, and the gun mount was taken from a Modelcollect E-75 SPAAG. However, both were heavily modified: the gun mount lost its boxy armor protection, just the brass barrels and the joint at the base were retained, the rest was scratched from styrene bits and wire. To accept the much taller weapon mount, the turret front had to be re-sculpted with putty, resulting in a boxier shape with steeper side walls – but the whole affair looks very organic. A simpler commander cupola was used and the whole radar dish arrangement on the rear roof was scratched, too.
The hull came from a Trumpeter T-62, just for the reasons explained in the background: the T-54/55 had a relatively small turret ring, and this caused severe development problems, because the MBT could not take a bigger turret and with it a more powerful cannon. Since this SPAAG would have been developed a couple of years later than the T-54/55, its successor, the T-62, appeared logical, and the “marriage” with the M48 turret worked like a charm. Even the turret’s adapter had the same diameter as the hull opening, I just had to modify the notches that hold it in place! The hull itself remained unmodified.
Painting and markings:
I wanted to place this SPAAG into the Afghanistan theatre of operations, and this was historically not very easy since I had to bridge some fifteen years of service to make this idea work. However, I found a story for the background, and the model received an appropriate paint scheme, based on real world vehicles around 1980 (actually from a BMP-1 operated in northern Afghanistan).
The camouflage consists of three tones, a pale/greyish sand, an olive drab tone and some contrasts in a dark, dull brown – it reminds of the US Army’s more complex MERDC scheme. The paints became Humbrol 167 (Hemp), Tamiya XF-62 (Olive Drab) and Humbrol 98 (Chocolate), even though the green appears darker than expected due to the high contrast with the sand tone.
The model received an overall washing with dark brown, highly thinned acrylic paint, and some dry-brushing with cream, faded olive drab and light grey. The few markings/decals were taken from the T-62 kit, and everything was sealed with matt acrylic varnish before the lower areas were finally dusted with a greyish-sand brown mix of artist pigments, simulating dust.

Beyond the bars and the Bund, far from the facade of glitz and glamour, lies the lifeblood of Shanghai – in its lowly nontangs (alley-houses).
This is where the soul of Shanghai lives.
“The Nongtang Project” is one man’s ambitious photo-documentary into the current lives of local Shanghainese in the place they call home.
