E23 - No Authority No Self, or, Penny Rimbaud at the Substation

As part of previewing and preparing for a larger project with Penny Rimbaud, this episode revisits a conversation with Penny from 2017. This was part of the “Stop the City… Revisited” installation which was part of “Discipline the City” exhibition and event series at the Substation in Singapore. It’s an interesting, if somewhat strange conversation, where Pen, as is his wont, answers questions in a way that might seem a bit flip or glib at first, but are actually quite insightful after some further reflection. Señor Rimbaud is, as much as ever, true to his own nature, in the sense that, to borrow an old anarcho-punk piece of wisdom, there is no authority but yourself, and there is no self. Materials from this exhibition & event were released in 2019 as Entry Points. Resonating Punk, Performance, and Art. The intro music is from the performance that night with Awk Wah & Dharma. Stop the City… Revisited: https://www.minorcompositions.info/?p=832Discipine the City: https://www.substation.org/discipline-the-city-exhibitionEntry Points: https://www.minorcompositions.info/?p=949Also available on Bandcamp: https://minorcompositions.bandcamp.com/album/entry-points-resonating-punk-performance-and-art
