Je me souviens d&#39;une marche avec François, je me dirige vers l&#39;est. Cuvillier. Je me demande s&#39;il a finit de tout peinturer en vert pâle, l&#39;ancien voisin. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;color:#333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;color:#333333;&quot;&gt;Le Shlag. Soudain je m&#39;ennuie de Jeanne. De Julien. De Coco. De Chèvre. Du bar Davidson et de ses films porno. Un autre ancien appartement. Je ne remonte pas jusqu&#39;à Bourbonnière cette fois, trop de mauvais souvenirs. Une amertume envers le monde. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;color:#333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;color:#333333;&quot;&gt;Je reprends alors la Catherine vers l&#39;ouest, jusqu&#39;à Papineau. En chemin, je regarde vers le haut à une occasion, pour voir. Rien à voir. Papineau. Quelle rue étrange. Les meubles Elvis, je me demande pourquoi je ne suis jamais entré... Un bar: une fille m&#39;invite à l&#39;intérieur. Je décline. C&#39;est mon monde, ce soir. Je marche lentement. Trop lentement. Je voudrais croiser Etienne, à tous prix. Lui dire tant de choses, lui montrer qui je suis devenu. Par hasard, sans rendez-vous. Truquer le destin, pour une fois, seulement une fois. Inutile. Vers le nord. Jusqu&#39;à Jean-Talon.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;color:#333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;color:#333333;&quot;&gt;Jean-Talon. Je vais vers Chambord. J&#39;arrête. Je fume une autre cigarette. Une histoire non terminée ici. Un drame comique. Étrange que dans mon champ de vision vive Gabriel. Mais lui, je l&#39;ai vu plus tôt aujourd&#39;hui, pas besoin d&#39;aller hésiter devant sa porte. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;color:#333333;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;color:#333333;&quot;&gt;Je me demande comment va Mathieu, comment va sa belle Sophie.

Voilà, je retourne chez moi. C&#39;est étrange, je me sens ici chez moi. Ça fait bientôt 10 ans que je suis à la dérive, jamais chez moi, toujours en voyage. D&#39;habiter avec Chloé, c&#39;est de revenir à la source. Étrange. Et bientôt, Simon. Le véritable chez moi.

 style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;This is the subtitle of Gaga&#39;s video &quot;The Heart&quot;, which was part of her first tour, the &quot;Fame Ball Tour&quot;. It directly announces the dialogue between Lady Gaga and pop-art. What is pop-art? The exposition of popular culture as is, as a form of art. A playful yet serious take on what we define as art, and what we define as industrial mass consumption products. What Gaga does goes beyond that. She exposes the products of industrial consumption, but at the same time, she is one of those products. One could see this as a &quot;Mise en abyme&quot; of popular culture by itself. The product exposing itself, exposing itself, exposing itself... Lady Gaga acts as both the critic and the subject, while being the subject of critics for everyone else. An &quot;everyone else&quot; she also embodies and criticizes in her works. It is a double take on pop culture and fame, an embrace and a public hanging. In that regard, by not being external to the source product, Lady Gaga could be considered as &quot;Post Pop-Art&quot;. A self-referencing pop-art act that goes beyond the exposure, that goes at the very source of it&#39;s subject. Andy Warhol being Marylin Monroe, or a soup can. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;So, who killed Candy Warhol? The Lady herself? Or is it a suicide of pop culture? What made Lady Gaga? The Lady and her fans (and haters) cannot function without each other. Gaga is a fame monster. Her fans are fame monsters. She is giving the most synthetised, yet the most genuine pop-act of our time. Everything is about the illusion of fame, the illusion of originality, the illusion of reality. And her fans are craving it, fully aware of the monstruosity that it is. She is a self-produced monster, but devoid of existence outside of her public&#39;s psyche. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;color:#FF0000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;The transparency of lies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;The Lady is a lie. A living, walking lie. And never lying about it. This shows the hermetic duality of the persona. Everything about her, the costumes, the music, the videos, the public appearances are acts of theatrality, acts of lies. But then, if a lie is taken to the next level and becomes a full-time act, it starts blending the lines between truth and fiction, purpose and actions. The Lady Gaga is an entity that functions by itself, in it&#39;s own conception of the world. It does not need to be compared to the rest of the industry, as it synthetises everything about it. So the lie also becomes the truth, never stopping switching roles. It is a mirror placed in front of a mirror. If both mirrors were to break, it would be impossible to understand what piece is a reflection and what piece is not. Or, at least, a tough excercise of perception.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;Is that paradox at the avant-garde of arts philosophy? Hard to say. Lady Gaga, using tricks and tools from the past, ended up creating a montage of schizophrenic proportions. A big thievery disguised as an offering. And she knows it, she admits it, and forces it down our perception. An offering to the world, and to herself. Her meteoric rise to superstardom shows this kind of illusion has been lacking in the pop horizon for quite some time, it seems. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot;  style=&quot;font-family:verdana;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;Some persons adore the Lady, others loathe her. But she&#39;s all inviting us to the most perverse relationship we can have with superstars. She will willingly create lies that will feed both her army of little monsters and the rest, so that everyone keeps wanting a part of the Gaga. That&#39;s not a superstar, in fact, that&#39;s a supernova and everything gets sucked in. The Lady plays on all fronts: Fans are drooling for her persona, clubbers are high on her &quot;four-to-the-floors&quot;, fashion critics are mesmerised by her clothes, conspiracy theorists have all they need of symbolism to keep thinking, concerned moms have all the sex needed to keep worrying, and so on. All of this being, as the Lady herself said, nothing but blatant lies, constructed needs and solutions. A new kind of mathematics where the answer and the equation are both false, yet still equal between themselves.

En accord j&#39;étais, et je suis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Qu&#39;est-ce que les gens aiment dans ces films?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;La longueur?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Le manque de rythme?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Le sujet qui en réalité n&#39;a rien de nouveau? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Les dialogues vides et remplis de lieux communs?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Les acteurs aimés d&#39;avance?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;L&#39;image drabe, plate et non cinématographique?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;De mes amis ont dit: Mais c&#39;est un sujet qui choquait à l&#39;époque!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Et moi de répondre: Quoi? Le sexe? La drogue? Les deux plus vieux plaisirs terrestres? En quoi est-ce choquant? Il n&#39;est même pas question ici de sexe sale et tordu, comme l&#39;inceste, le viol de bébés morts ou l&#39;urophagie, mais bien de sexe propret, convenable et masturbatif dans sa contemplation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Comment un intellectuel peut-il trouver matière à stimuler son intellect avec de tels ennuis?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Le peuple Québecois est-il si plate qu&#39;il fête la platitude? Bientôt, journée nationale de l&#39;ennui orgasmique?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Alors que certains films se font rabattre par la critique parceque &#39;glauque, vide et sans intérêt&#39;, nous louangeons de telles facilités... C&#39;est un concept que j&#39;ai du mal à saisir.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Revenons à ce film &#39;glauque, vide et sans intérêt&#39;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Je parle ici du film &lt;em&gt;Cadavres&lt;/em&gt;. Voilà, à mon avis, ce que le cinéma devrait être. Un esthétisme assuré, des personnages tordus mais fidèles à eux-mêmes, un certain humour &lt;em&gt;tongue-in-cheek&lt;/em&gt;; Une célébration de ce que nous pouvons concevoir, sans le vivre. Si je veux une fenêtre sur la vie plate et convenue du monde, je n&#39;ai qu&#39;à regarder dehors. Pourquoi irais-je donc louer un film pour remplacer cette fenêtre? Bonne question.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Aimons les &lt;em&gt;Salò, Calligula, Funny Games, Oranges Mécaniques, Cadavres, Karmina, Decameron, Kill Bill, L&#39;Empire des Sens, &lt;/em&gt;et autres perles de genre. Ça vaut mieux, à mon avis, que de se flatter dans le sens du poil. L&#39;inconfort porte au changement, et je fêterai le changement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:verdana;font-size:78%;&quot;&gt;Et sur ce, bonne journée.&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://multiplications.blogspot.com/feeds/8178385495445490215/comments/default' title='Publier les commentaires'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://multiplications.blogspot.com/2009/08/se-flatter-dans-le-sens-du-poil.html#comment-form' title='1 commentaires'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2763701615194261635/posts/default/8178385495445490215'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2763701615194261635/posts/default/8178385495445490215'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://multiplications.blogspot.com/2009/08/se-flatter-dans-le-sens-du-poil.html' title='À se flatter dans le sens du poil.'/><author><name>R.
