― Tuomas, Monday, 2 January 2012 23:28 (twelve years ago) link
oh, it's nothing really. i was super bored and i started a poll on the sandbox with some phrases from the above linked "romance writer's phrasebook" that i have had sitting around forever. then it became evident that one could construct an entire story from these phrases, many of which were patently awful, and i made that thing i just posted.
i've chosen some more images and i imagine that it won't be hard to make more.
fyi i used elmer's glue to attach the words to the picture (this is a scan of the actual thing)
― La Lechera, Monday, 2 January 2012 23:32 (twelve years ago) link
i also intentionally chose a boring serif font and plain old printer paper for the words.
i guess the book is arranged in a way that it's like connect the dots, and everyone connects the dots in a different way, much like the way people choose to interpret the same reality in different ways irl.
i really love that the last phrase in the book is "her mind was filled with sour thoughts" -- looking forward to using that one!

Pardon the editorial comment here, but I had to put it somewhere:
Encountering a small roadblock. The phrases/tags used to describe Her actions are really really really passive. His actions are all mostly forward and aggressive, or standoffish. So she never really gets to be the active person -- things happen to her, she gets taken by surprise!, various omg! situations. But she doesn't really get to DO ANYTHING. I am trying to find a way to use these phrases to insinuate that she does something without having to say it. A challenge, I guess. Mostly because I am tired of her being frozen and aghast all the time.

Maybe you could use the background image to highlight/contrast and so critique how passive all the language is as it relates to women.

"Her senses were spun by the scent of his freshly showered body"
the steamy chapters have been hindered by two major things among a host of other issues, namely:

Hahahaha - This works better as a projection exercise than I thought! (I did not intend her to pee herself, no)
Also for the record, the circle thing was just so perplexing that I had to put it somewhere. This book is tame to the point that I have had to repurpose phrases from other chapters in order to get anyone to do anything not related to nipples. IIRC that one was from Sex --> "embracing", which made me think that it was about closing the circle of their...arms? Hands? Who knows. Something way more blah than what you may have imagined.
WARNING: The next few are going to be kinda NSFW if you or your employer blushes easily, but don't really have any especially "graphic content" out of context. No weird photos or anything.

I'm getting a little bit tired of this whole thing, and there are 4 more to go.
This is Ch. 9, featuring selections from Sex --> Lovemaking as well as Body Parts --> Eyes and the one you're going to be like "EW" is actually from a misc. chapter about reactions.
This is the second to last of the pure smutty ones, don't worry, things will definitely start to go downhill fast.
ALSO -- my scanner cut off the first line and the "t" in hot (obvs)

I realize that I am basically talking to myself here, but today was the day I went back to the thrift store that had #79 of the Encyclopedia of the Human Body and Mind to see if there was anything else there that inspired me. I went all around the books section, found a great book with huge pictures of baby animals, and then I saw the OTHER magazine rack with like 20 more installments of the encyclopedia. I bought them all, total expenditure $7. I anticipate many more hours of pointless typing, cutting, and glueing in my future.
(I put the baby animal picture book back because I didn't want to carry it home on the ~ 2 mi walk in the snow) The end.

I have nixed the smoke machine as (1) I couldn't find one and (2) even if I did, it might obscure the images from being projected and (3) it has been suggested that that would be "too much" :(

First three stanzas (minus the last line) are from the version of "Fair Margaret and Lady William" which had been "communicated to Percy by the Dean of Derry, as written down by memory by his mother, Mrs. Bernard."

Simone de Beauvoir wrote in The Second Sex (1949) "[Woman] is defined and differentiated with reference to man and not he with reference to her; she is the incidental, the inessential as opposed to the essential. He is the Subject, he is the Absolute — she is the Other."
In romance fiction this formula is reversed, as scholar and former Mills & Boon editor jay Dixon (who spells her name with a lower-case "j") observes in her book The Romantic Fiction of Mills & Boon 1909-1995. Woman is the Subject, man the Other.
― horseshoe, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 18:41 (twelve years ago) link
That is indeed true if the Romance Writer's Phrase Book is any indication!! I remain really disappointed in the overwhelming negativity of the book too. The last line in my "novel" is also the last line in the book -- "her mind was filled with sour thoughts."
I mean, think about that.

I also had a difficult time getting her to do anything that was not a reaction to what he was doing.
Tangentially, my mom attends a lot of "writer's conferences" at which she sees ALL kinds of weirdos (self-help, self-published romance writers, memoirists, etc) and she said that by far, the most depressing scene was in front of the romance writers' booth. She described it as "grim."
All of this just makes me more interested in it, naturally.

Is your worry about how to talk about it artistically mainly because you don't really know how to explain what you're doing to other people? I'd say it's collaged found poetry using the cut-up technique, I think most people would understand that at least roughly.
This is a great description. Once again, I want these books. I'm assuming the "walker" being banged noisily across the room is what I would call a Zimmer frame? So, like, some cranky old person stomping about?

here is an interesting george lakoff lecture about how he started thinking about conceptual metaphor, cold rainy day, 5 students, a woman comes into class late covered in rain and crying.
he relates a story of a a young woman (above) who talks about her relationship with her boyfriend during class (lol Berkeley in the 70s) and how it is a "dead end street" -- this leads to a discussion about romantic love and the phrases used to describe it
"...English has a lot of expressions where love is seen as a journey"
