“America is not a young land: it is old and dirty and evil. Before the settlers, before the Indians... the evil was there... waiting.”
― William S. Burroughs, Naked Lunch

Charles Gatewood ~ William S Burroughs and the Scientology E-meter, London, 1972

After turning on the E-meter Burroughs began asking himself questions:
“Am I me?”
The needle fell.
“Am I that I am?”
The needle reached a neutral position and stayed.
“A floating needle,” said William. “Excellent.”

"Many policemen and narcotics agents are precisely addicted to power, to exercising a certain nasty kind of power over people who are helpless. The nasty sort of power: white junk, I call it—rightness; they’re right, right, right—and if they lost that power, they would suffer excruciating withdrawal symptoms."

“So there I was flat on my ass with no certificate. Should I turn to another trade? No. Doctoring was in my blood. I managed to keep up my habits performing cut-rate abortions in subway toilets. I even descended to hustling pregnant women in the public streets. It was positively unethical.”

William S. Burroughs, Naked Lunch, 1959.

Useless quote for Mar 22:

"And you can't write unless you want to write, and you can't want to unless you feel like it."

William S. Burroughs, "A Word to the Wise Guy" (1975)

❝ [William S.] Burroughs’ work, like [Ornette] Coleman’s music, seems to flow and move in waves washing over the reader impressionistically. Burroughs looks beyond the traditional novel structures while still trying to hold the reader’s attention. With the cut-ups, this seems a game of brinksmanship. Who will blink first — Burroughs or the reader. This seems to be exactly what Coleman was attempting in his music of the early 1970s. ❞ → faroutmagazine.co.uk/william-s

Fue uno de los máximos exponentes de la “Generación Beat” en los años 50´ y se convirtió en un faro para muchas de las luminarias del rock. Blondie, Bowie, Zappa, Ian Curtis, Patti Smith y Joe Strummer, entre otros, mamaron de su prosa a la hora de componer sus propias canciones. Ha formado parte de la mitológica tapa de “Sargent Peppers”, puso la voz en una poesía de Jim Morrison (“Is Everybody In?”), junto a Kurt Cobain colaboró en una pieza llamada “The “Priest” Called Him” y cerró con su rostro ya avejentado un video de U2 (“Last Night on Earth”). (“Yonqui”, “El Almuerzo Desnudo”, entre otros) nacía un día como el de hoy pero del lejano 1914. Sin embargo, su legado literario va de la mano de una particular filosofía: el lenguaje es un parásito que se encuentra en nuestras mentes y no sabemos que estamos infectados.

A review in Bookforum of The Night Ocean, which is a fictionalized telling of some events in HP Lovecraft’s Life, with a memorable cameo from Burroughs. I am not a Lovecraft person but the story swept me up.

"Suspicious of this so-called 'AI art.' What does it mean for a machine to create something that we traditionally consider to be a product of human emotion and imagination? Are we now to believe that machines are capable of artistic expression? This seems like a dangerous road to go down, as it could lead to the further erosion of what makes us human." - William Burroughs ghost spoken through ChatGPT
