The next thing I write is the truth. The last thing
I wrote was a lie.
I have been trying various things to "unlearn" and
get something new going. Different tunings, different instrument (oud),
new effects, I got a yahoo widget with Enos
Oblique Strategies cards. I also go to the Chain Tape Collective and listen. All
of these have helped some. Any other ideas to refresh a flagging creative
muse?

fantastic!
Having spent some time with douglas hofstatder writings on strange loops and
self referencial sentences this one would definitely fall into that catagory.
True loopage in the syntactic/linguistic realm.
The creten
is lying and this sentence is utterly hopelessly false. Paradox, a conceptual
framework for the looper.....
Unreal and
Real, live and mediatized bound together in a feedback loop of
reference
or
something.....
