[hank solo]

The yellow one? Thats the House of Books Ed Blair LouJon catalogue.

 

[roni]

that's a catalog by 'House of Books' (1994) listing the Ed Blair collection for sale.

Literary Times - A Special Interview Edition
Vol 4, No 2, December 1964 [!]

yes, there are obviously also musicians (Chet Baker) and painters (Jasper Johns) in the 'Literary-Times'. [so you wouldn't take the "Literary" literally.]

 

[hoochmonkey9]

Lennie Tristano!

 

[mjp]

You can read the interview (his first) here.

 

[Ponder]

You can read the interview (his first) here.

Kaye: This is a corny question. Who is the greatest living poet?

Bukowski: That is not corny. That is tough. Well, we have Ezra...Pound, and we have T.S.,[Eliot] but they've both stopped writing. Of the producing poets, I would say...Oh, Larry Eigner.

 

[5:28am]

You can read the interview (his first) here.

Things like this are why I come here.

 

[zobraks]

If you prefer to read offline, holding a (pretty heavy) book (and sniffing the paper

), it's also in Sunlight Here I Am (page 19).

 

[Bukfan]

I guess us cold dogs in the courtyard do like to sniff books.

 

[roni]

it's hard to impress you kids.

 

[roni]

a drawing he did during visiting his town of birth: Andernach (Germany) in 1978:

(note: the dog's tail's going UP STRAIGHT.)

 

[Ponder]

What does the 60 mean, is it a page of a book?

 

[roni]

no, that was just my way of labeling the items to catalog them. This one was #60. It's been removed since.

 

[roni]

oh, btw: meanwhile, the exhibition has OPENED!

here's me talking at the opening:

 

[mjp]

It looks like Mozart conducting.

 

[Bukfan]

What's with the hands in the 3rd photo?:p

 

[roni]

It looks like Mozart conducting.

that's also what it felt like.


[more screenshots attached]

 

[roni]

btw HERE's a short trailer to our Bukowski-Exhibition.

(still going on till Jan 31, 2015)

 

[Black Swan]

Very well put together, Roni.
The music was very well chosen too.
What was it?

 

[David]

Sounds like Beethoven's Ninth, Scherzo, Second Movement....

 

[Bukfan]

A well made video, Roni! The exhibition looks great and could be made into a traveling exhibition visiting libraries and such (without the expensive pieces included for safety reasons).

 

[roni]

Thanks, my friends!

The music [...] What was it?

Beethoven's Ninth, Scherzo, Second Movement

Exactly.
(that's why youtube didn't let me post it and facebook deleted the video after a week. Their software even identified that the conductor was Karajan!)
