The Hermetic Medium of the Internet

I’m starting to get excited about the release of MARVELLOUS HAIRY, and I found this round-up of quotes about, and relating to, the publisher, Crossing Chaos Enigmatic Ink (CC). I particularly liked this one from Tom Bradley, and why he describes CC as “The Enigmatic Polygeneration”:

“The envy inspired by exquisitely smooth foreheads and cheeks; the superciliousness engendered by wrinkles and arthritic gaits; the mutual revulsion that results in commingling the disparate B.O.s of maturity and im-; the disharmony of voices cracked with senectitude and late teen hormones; the ambiguous eros ignited when the androgyne grace of late adolescence rubs against grizzled moobs; the subcortical whiffs of the Freudian family-disease that obtrude on every animal awareness when figures substitutable for parent and spawn rub elbows, when personal encounters take place among people separable by more than a sibling’s number of years – none of this signifies through the hermetic medium of the internet.”
