The English language is as real as ghosts, aliens, big-foot and Bilbo Baginns. All of these things are ideas, some more or less popular than others, but none universally accepted by humanity as meaningful in constructing personal narratives.

When we seek to communicate with others, we pick and choose which symbols we will use, usually on the basis of socialized norms. In one place we may speak English, in another German, in another we can talk about our favourite Star Trek characters, but in another only academic discourse is welcome.

What happens when communicators ignore those norms, and instead speak in a language that is more personally meaningful? If the listener makes more effort to accept the speaker's conceptual choices, won't they ultimately UNDERSTAND the speaker better?

This video is dedicated to those Xenophilosophers-- wherever they may be and in whatever time they work-- who daringly refuse to place socially constructed limits on the narratives they present to the world-- people like David Lynch, David Firth, Charlie Sheen, Whitley Strieber, Alex Jones, and so many others who the intellectually flaccid dismiss as insane.

Every word and symbol in this video means something important to me. This is not an assemblage of random gibberish. However, I do not imagine that what this all means to me will be clear for you-- but that is not important. If you are a Xenophilosopher, you will be able to appreciate this on a linguistic, emotional, or purely visceral level.

Please enjoy these excerpts from my erstwhile blog; So Much for My Pee Pee.

  • "face dripping cartons of cigarettes" - my favourite bit so far. says so much.

    music starting at around 5:30 reminds me of Throbbing Gristle

  • @obviouslymaccormac Thanks for that! I am pissed that the video rendered a bit more choppy then I would like in the first minute or two, but besides that I am happy with the end result :D
