Cool! Thanks for the links.

A bit of own 2.5p chipping in:

If we talk past/history, is it too much of a stretch to draw a line from 
european oriented interests with the "primitive"? (guess we could go further 
back but hey..) The "primitive", with people like gauguin, klee and matisse, I 
think can be linked with the next wave of similar interests, eg the "naive". ie 
child like, hence I placed klee there.. Well.. these, i think, have obvious 
resonances with imperialism, noble "savage", and indeed "purity" of childhood, 
no?

Might it not be worthwhile to crit stuff like negative knowledge in its various 
forms, fails, bloops, etc. as possibly linked to these earlier forms? Or even 
contemporary "incarnations"?

(Am saying all these from a certain perspective of doing stuff that skirts on 
various levels the negative knowledge ways, eg: a search from sense-cluelessnes 
in amsterdam? http://senseclueless.beep.pm/0clueams/ )
ie these questions do cross critically my mind re own practices. seemed 
appropriate to share..

Cheers and have fun!
