Transmission: #Meditations (Borges & Atchu, the Quixote of OWS)

[From Alex]

#Meditations (Borges & Atchu, the Quixote of OWS)

"he comprehended that the effort to mold the incoherent and vertiginous matter dreams are made of was the most arduous task a man                           

              could undertake, though he might penetrate all the enigmas of the upper and lower orders: much more arduous than weaving a rope of                                           sand or coining the faceless wind. he comprehended that an initial failure was inevitable. he swore he would forget the enormous hallucination which                       had misled him at first, and he sought another method."

Occupy TVNY: Take Back the Commons - D17 

December 17, 2011: Occupy Wall Street teams up with artists, musicians and faith leaders to demand a space for public expression and to seek sanctuary in an unused lot owned by Trinity Church, an institution that has shown support for the movement despite its strong ties to Wall Street. Episcopal Bishop George Packard is the first to scale the fence, and is arrested along with fellow occupiers. Reverend Lawson, a leader of the Civil Rights movement, urges the protesters to keep "treading water" because the country needs them. Music from Dean and Britta, live from WBAI studios.
