Jørgen Leth er død. Lad os huske hans bøger og film, hans kommentatorvirke! Mine personlige favoritter er Sportsdigte og filmen Motion Picture, men der er så mange mesterværker

Letzte Generation has become Neue Generation, aka what Günther Anders back in 1960 called "die erste Generation letzter Menschen“

The kawaii edition of Joshua Clover, his poetics and politics - may he rest in peace and in power, together with many as communists as cats!

This is a very good poem that I will always remember - just like the lines by Juliana Spahr that echo it: "All art either with the crowd or with the police. All art coming down to that simple divide"

Wrote a long review essay for Politiken on Octavia Butler and new Danish translations of Kindred and the Parable-trilogy

If you have written maybe the greatest novel ever, I accept! If you haven’t - but instead, for instance, written a mediocre academic article, or, like, a novel like Stoner - I really don’t.
