WFMU: The Blind Tourist with Adriene: Playlist from January 2, 2020

Listener comments!
	6:00pm Carmichael: Heya Adriene and tourists.
	6:01pm ultradamno: The universe loved it so much it put a bunch of rings on it.
	6:01pm ParUbi: I'm all caught up with the reading! Haven't been able to listen to these live since the book started.
	6:02pm northguineahills: So, apparently. if you eat all of your kids, the universe puts a ring on it....
	6:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: Greetings, tourists and ringleader Adriene!
	6:03pm ParUbi: I'm still wondering about that mysterious military site that was only reopened in 1993
	6:03pm adriene: Hey all, thanks for listening and reading. For anyone reading: Any scenes in the book (so far) standing out to you?
	6:04pm ultradamno: A Hungry Man dinner i.ytimg.com...
	6:05pm ParUbi: Michael Hamburger and Anne's dream
	6:06pm northguineahills: Jesse Kaminsky' Neighbors' Noise on GTDS stream on WFMU plays a lot of radio aporee. A good place to find sound walks and field recording....
	6:06pm ParUbi: I read his translation of Hölderlin in a seminar back in the day
	6:08pm ParUbi: Oh, also the mysterious Shingle Street site. What happened there?
	6:08pm northguineahills: @ultradamno: jejeje! (reir en voz alto)
	6:10pm ParUbi: Finally, a general question: It seems that Sebald's writings hover between fiction and nonfiction. Which elements are fictional? That ambiguity, I guess, is part of the work of the text.
	6:12pm ParUbi: Haha, he had to drink that Cherry Coke at that small town store. Hilarious scene.
	6:13pm choggie: and remember kids, the kindling temperature of Cherry Coke is 462 degrees Fahrenheit
	6:13pm ParUbi: (I'll stop now-- compensating for missing the last 4 or 5 shows)
	6:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: I've been attending a martial arts class the last few months and listening en route. No class today, so I ordered a copy from the library system. Will do some catching up with help of the archives in the near future.
	6:15pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): northguineahills: sitting here with Franco Twinkie and chresti wondering "what's for dinner!?"
	6:16pm ParUbi: (Right, it's like his long lost spiritual brother. Better, his double.)
	6:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: ... and if I don't like it, I'll kick the book swiftly across the room. :-)
	6:17pm dale: i thought i heard henry kissenger in there....
	6:17pm ParUbi: It's worth it! Doesn't have a conventional plot at all, though. Sustained meditations on place, free association, and dreams.
	6:18pm adriene: @ParUbi Sebald talks about forging some of the pictures in the book and using fictions within the non-fiction in this short segment, you might find it interesting: www.youtube.com...
	6:18pm northguineahills: @GST: Either chorizo/refried beans/seranos//eggs (spices) tacos or tamales....,but my brothers want me to join them for drinks, so, that may curtail that. Tomorrow, I'm making udon soup (w/ tofu and seaweed, etc)
	6:18pm dale: i stand by my assumption that rick steves is a pot head.
	6:19pm Carmichael: Agreed, Dale.
	6:19pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): northguineahills:we'll be right over!
	6:20pm ParUbi: Thanks, @Adriene. Memory is such a huge part of this, I wonder if the forgery is meant to reflect the shifting unreliability of memory...
	6:23pm adriene: In putting the show together I've been able to variety a few fictions, but they really blend in with everything else!
	6:26pm dale: carmichael - i think it's wonderful if he get's it past american public media or pbs or whomever.
	6:26pm northguineahills: I miss Berlin!
	6:28pm ParUbi: Narration seems to inevitably simplify and thus fictionalize
	6:30pm ultradamno: Zucker, Zucker!
	6:30pm choggie: schlagen pop ist eine sugar sugar
	6:30pm ultradamno: i.ytimg.com...
	6:31pm ParUbi: I'm fascinated with the way he links the booming sugar trade to inflated prices at art auctions
	6:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Terence McKenna pointedly noted slavery had been abolished until refined sugar. As a Drug - there is nothing as consequential or damaging as sugar.
	6:37pm tak: it's good for ya
	6:42pm ParUbi: "I think that fiction writing which does not acknowledge the uncertainty of the narrator himself is a form of imposture which I find very, very difficult to take. Any form of authorial writing where the narrator sets himself up as stagehand and director and judge and executor in a text, I find somehow unacceptable. I cannot bear to read books of this kind."
	6:48pm common: Good eve
	6:50pm ParUbi: Guess I'll be checking out Thomas Bernhard
	6:52pm ParUbi: Sheldrake is an interesting case-- something of a black sheep among scientists
	6:53pm Earth Walker: Slavery still exists in American jails Who’s kidding who Extremely low paid workers doing work for corporate America
	7:00pm ParUbi: Great show- lots to think about!

January 2, 2020: Part VII & VIII : The Rings of Saturn by W.G. Sebald
Memories of pre-war Berlin with Michael Hamburger, a beetle swimming shore to shore in a darkened well, Irish country houses and a eerie trip to Orfond Ness. I find myself trapped in the Munich airport thinking of Sebald's connection with the animals throughout The Rings of Saturn.
