Quotations and Terms, A Taste, Testing One, Two, and Three...To Be Continued...

We will be moving soon to www.errationality.com, so we're busy, you know, learning to do web-y type stuff. But wanted to post some quotations and a list of terms, to show how we're dancing around this whole radical recombinance thing, on the metadancefloor of ideas. See you soon in the new space!

Quotations:

I am interested in the beauty of embedded possibility. This is the way in which fractals have influenced my ideas of what can and can be. - Arlene Stamp

Location is easy, but what about aboutness. - Peter Morville

Each word a stroke of genius that can bring on all the rest. - Joan Retallack

When pushed to the wall, art is too slow. - Lisa Robertson

If the good house is just poetry we're in trouble. - Rod Smith

Rather than ask, "What is the attitude of a work to the relations of production of its time?" I should like to ask, "What is its position in them?" - Walter Benjamin

ALL YOUR [KNOWLEDGE] BASE ARE BELONG TO US. - Zero Wing (Japanese Video Game)

Kaleidoscopes are a gateway drug! - The Group for Radical Recombinance (theGRR)

Information Architecture is just an elegant hack. - Christina Wodtke

[replace "Information Architecture" with any term, field, object or process, and you have the gist of radical recombinance]
