Is it strange I only listen to DFW speak in interviews or narrate his novels and essays? I love the man he brings me hours and hours of contemplation and peace.
The genuine genius ⭐ He was only an exceptional language artist & philosopher, who has conceived a certain contemporary perception sharply deconstructed. We ALL miss you, DFW...
I think there needs to be a national holiday to honor this great man. One of the gretest minds of a man in human history. A gentle soul of a saint reincarnated
His criticisms are always so deeply philosophical, like he's had the dialogue in his mind over and over before speaking it to reality. Then he turns it sideways by noting how intricately engineered "reality" is, like he's always trying to help break us out of the next matrix. Of course, it always comes back to hedonism xD, even now I crave a 10 piece chicken nugget meal with some drama filled topical video to watch.
Мне нравится его взгляд на неоднозначность понятия «реализм». В конце концов и приём «потока сознания» был придуман не для того, чтобы отойти от реализма, а для того чтобы наоборот как можно ближе подойти к описанию того, как сознание действует на самом деле. Как нечто синкретичное, обрывочное и далеко не всегда линейное. Это был шаг навстречу гиперреализму.
И вообще я рада, что наконец-то прокачала свой английский достаточно хорошо, чтобы хотя бы временами чётко понимать, о чем он говорит. И когда я понимаю, я абсолютно с ним согласна.
Я бы сказала, что реализм - это просто отсутствие фантастических элементов. Когда автор не описывает что-то, что противоречит законам физики. Но слабость этой версии в том, что с течением времени наши представления о законах физики тоже порой кардинально меняются. 😅

I love listening to David speak. So fluid and beautiful.
David's "The Suffering Channel" predicted the watch people die subreddit.

Yes, it is strange.
The genuine genius ⭐ He was only an exceptional language artist & philosopher, who has conceived a certain contemporary perception sharply deconstructed. We ALL miss you, DFW...
This is so amazing. Thank you!!!!!
DFW is like Funes el Memorioso. Its like he remembers everything. DFW also has the ability to write it down perfectly.
more so than anyone else - i really wish this dude didn’t die. i wish i could hear an unheard conversation from him just one more time
thanks for posting this!

The Year of David Foster Wallace haha

23:41 Language is the wildcard
The guy was a genius
No he wasn’t.
Just really smart
@@uscbro69 yeah perhaps if he were just a writer but he did a lot more, that's what makes him a genius
@@Mutantcy1992 what else did he do? I’ve covered most of his stuff and never encountered genius-though I wish I had.
@@Mutantcy1992 read or listen to DFW, and then check out Nietzsche or Durkheim. If DFW is genius, then we need another word for those others
23:28 is great. He gets into something that haunted him throughout most of his literature: Linguistic idealism.
@@bobby7844 right. Nabokov would concur, and Orwell to some extent would, too.
И вообще я рада, что наконец-то прокачала свой английский достаточно хорошо, чтобы хотя бы временами чётко понимать, о чем он говорит. И когда я понимаю, я абсолютно с ним согласна.
Lovely I’m happy for you I love DFW on so many levels he is brilliant have you listened to this is water speech ?
Anybody care to do a timestamp for the reading?
In the interview he states he's 42 years old... he was born in 1962 so it seems this took place in 2004
Ему очень идёт эта стрижка)
Lack of haircut
Its like he wrote the playbook for how to exploit peoples psyche via social media, gosh so prescient
What book is that
