+
+!!Special Issue #18 — Weekly Release #5
+What if a group of people writes a piece that starts (or ends) with the same sentence?
+
+ __If we censor art what is left to discuss?__
+
+Apparently, a lot. Pay attention to every word, draw your focus on the paper. The five contributions that compose this audio piece are not only defining what censorship is; they are, instead, giving an open overview of a wide range of meanings to this word, creating the feeling that censorship does not have fixed boundaries as someone could think.
+
+!!About
+The release of this week is a collaboratively written text recorded as audio pieces by the composers.
+
+The method chosen for the collective writing is inter-dependent and inter-connected, but at the same time allows everyone to work at their own pace.
+
+The structure is built up on the refrain "if we censor art what is left to discuss" that produced different scenarios and visions with the same beginning or end. The idea is that every piece can go one after the other and that new pieces of text could be added, producing a never-ending collective writing piece:
+
+ if we censor art what is left to discuss<<cycle "$week5contribs" autoselect>>
+ <<option ": the reasons, the motivations behind the censorship of art perhaps." "contrib2">>
+ <<option " but" "contrib5">>
+ <<option " expression and representation are not the same thing" "contrib3">>
+ <<option " and I guess I am not the most qualified to talk" "contrib4">>
+ <<option "? What does art mean to us?" "contrib1">>
+<</cycle>>
+
+While listening to this piece, we invite you to pay heed to the words coming out of the speakers and to doodle/draw on a piece of paper. The result will be part of the documentation for this release.

+__Person A:__
+if we censor art what is left to discuss?
+
+__Person B:__
+what does art mean to us?
+
+__Person A:__
+A calling
+A gut feeling you can’t ignore
+(For lack of a better word) a labor of love
+A cryptic yet decipherable language
+A way to say something without actually saying it (some things can’t be expressed through just words)
+
+__Person B:__
+the way I can address and express my most pressing thoughts and feelings
+the way I can address a topic that I am passionate about
+
+__Person A:__
+art as a mode of address...is there always an addressee? sometimes i feel like i'm expressing into a void..
+
+__Person B:__
+do you ever feel uncomfortable to share what you have created?
+
+__Person A:__
+sometimes, when something still feels half-baked or isn’t yet in a digestible state. But at the same time, this uncomfortable feeling is part of the process, and accepting and going along with it can take you to unexpected and even more interesting places.
+
+__Person B:__
+when I doubt myself; sometimes I fear what people will think about it. Perhaps I am afraid of harsh critique or feeling that my work is a joke. Sometimes I don't believe my work is good enough. Sometimes I feel I will be misunderstood. Or whatever I do doesn't matter at all.
+
+__Person A:__
+does the environment you’re in shape your practice/creation process?
+
+__Person B:__
+all the time. I am so easy to be influenced by things happening around me. I think I am quite sensitive. I observe and feel things and then I need to digest them and get them out of my system.
+
+__Person A:__
+i can relate. it can also be difficult when you're trying to go with the motions and haven't properly digested some things yet / are still in the marinating process.
+
+__Person B:__
+when I am forced to create after a quick snack, I feel like the outcome is not really solid. I need more time to process the things before I am able to reflect and turn them into something valuable. But then, when I know what I want to do, I can do it really fast.
+
+__Person A:__
+what do you (or would like to) refrain from in your artistic practice?
+
+__Person B:__
+fear and holding myself back. Easier said than done though.
+
+__Person A:__
+but this push and pull is also where growth happens :)
+
+__Person B:__
+we're growing up all the time :D
+
+__Person A:__
+is there a common refrain in your creations? An uncommon one you’d like to see more of or experiment with? for me i feel like there is or is taking shape but hasn't quite crystallized yet..
+
+__Person B:__
+I feel like my music is always in different genres. I am constantly trying out new things and aesthetics but then a lot of people still say they recognise my "voice". I guess, the refrain is me. I am looking for one that I can see, but it is actually the one other people see, that matters.

+If we censor art what is left to discuss: the reasons, the motivations behind the censorship of art perhaps. Or would that also be censored? Something like the liar's paradox as mentioned by Dennis the Pillow in Everything is Alive. Is censorship openly discussed when censorship is also taking place? Can censorship be discuss simultaneously while it is happening? "I am lying" says the liar. Would censored art be censored to discuss? A motivation to rename, rebrand, re-contextualise. Be under the radar, under-scrutinized in opposition to overanalysed.
+If we understand art what is left to discuss? In a book I am currently reading, Weight of the Earth The Tape Journals of David Wojnarowicz, I read the following: "I liked that things carry the possibility for unlimited interpretations." Oh how I like this image. Oh how I rediscover this thought I've had at many occasions: that of a text with million of stories. Well, each set of eyes has a different rhythm, a singular attention span, personal assumptions of certain words and sentences and definitions; some might skip over a sentence, some letters, misconstruct a narration or a structure... so many variables depending of the reader. These different circumstances put together, leave the text to interpretation, leave the "things" with "the possibility for unlimited interpretations."
+If we misunderstand art what is left to discuss? I am 126 pages into the book and for the first time I smile and fold the bottom of the page, underline this sentence as not to forget its placement. Not that I didn't enjoy the book until that moment, but there is something in this sentence I recognised. Something I wanted to mark down, as to acknowledge it and be able to come back to it at any given moment. Not to censor, rather to underline.
+What is left to discuss? The ones that I stroke out. I left them out, for they are too concrete.
+Does it trigger your curiosity? If it beeps, does it trigger your imagination? If it is highlighted, is there any way you would not read it? Probably your eyes would roll back over, again and again. Like marbles, sliding towards the highlighted sentences. Like magnets, drawn to their opposites: a fluorescent body, so unnatural to our eyes that they are not to be missed. Impossible to ignore, a coloured scream.
+If we underline censorship what is left to art? The questions above triggered me to overlap the acts of highlighting and censoring and deleting. During the Japanese Colonial Period in Korea and from the 60s to the 80s during the military government, a lot of newspapers were censored, published as blank blocks or with blackened lines, a colourless shout. Highlighting and deleting texts within the line are the same movements. They offer different outcomes, with different intentions. To highlight becomes a form of militantism, to delete presents a twisted kind of activism. A space to enhance words, another to strike absence.
+For now I want to highlight this sentence, "Not to censor, rather to underline".

+
+If we censor art what is left to discuss: the reasons, the motivations behind the censorship of art perhaps. Or would that also be censored? Something like the liar's paradox as mentioned by Dennis the Pillow in Everything is Alive. Is censorship openly discussed when censorship is also taking place? Can censorship be discuss simultaneously while it is happening? "I am lying" says the liar. Would censored art be censored to discuss? A motivation to rename, rebrand, re-contextualise. Be under the radar, under-scrutinized in opposition to overanalysed.
+If we understand art what is left to discuss? In a book I am currently reading, Weight of the Earth The Tape Journals of David Wojnarowicz, I read the following: "I liked that things carry the possibility for unlimited interpretations." Oh how I like this image. Oh how I rediscover this thought I've had at many occasions: that of a text with million of stories. Well, each set of eyes has a different rhythm, a singular attention span, personal assumptions of certain words and sentences and definitions; some might skip over a sentence, some letters, misconstruct a narration or a structure... so many variables depending of the reader. These different circumstances put together, leave the text to interpretation, leave the "things" with "the possibility for unlimited interpretations."
+If we misunderstand art what is left to discuss? I am 126 pages into the book and for the first time I smile and fold the bottom of the page, underline this sentence as not to forget its placement. Not that I didn't enjoy the book until that moment, but there is something in this sentence I recognised. Something I wanted to mark down, as to acknowledge it and be able to come back to it at any given moment. Not to censor, rather to underline. What is left to discuss? The ones that I stroke out. I left them out, for they are too concrete.
+Does it trigger your curiosity? If it beeps, does it trigger your imagination? If it is highlighted, is there any way you would not read it? Probably your eyes would roll back over, again and again. Like marbles, sliding towards the highlighted sentences. Like magnets, drawn to their opposites: a fluorescent body, so unnatural to our eyes that they are not to be missed. Impossible to ignore, a coloured scream.
+If we underline censorship what is left to art? The questions above triggered me to overlap the acts of highlighting and censoring and deleting. During the Japanese Colonial Period in Korea and from the 60s to the 80s during the military government, a lot of newspapers were censored, published as blank blocks or with blackened lines, a colourless shout. Highlighting and deleting texts within the line are the same movements. They offer different outcomes, with different intentions. To highlight becomes a form of militantism, to delete presents a twisted kind of activism. A space to enhance words, another to strike absence.
+For now I want to highlight this sentence, "Not to censor, rather to underline".

+Taken by surprise? Jokes aside
+Leaving some words of gratitude
+They really liked my attitude
+Gave them some pleasure in their leisure
+And I can promise, forever
+It’s always worth to spend some money
+On the words leaving my mouth, honey
+I can make you laugh and I can make you cry
+You say you’ve been touched
+I tell you why
+
+You call us performers, I call us dealers
+for emotions, you wanna see us
+perform in motion like hyenas
+We are here to fill arenas
+Our stage is a shopping catalog
+You can buy whatever you want
+Everyone is coming by
+to get entertained, to get satisfied
+Tell me your needs, i’m gonna comply
+I can do it all, you’d be surprised
+
+This mind’s as deep as your self esteem
+This is why they call me the machine
+I can give you the tears and I can give you the rage
+when I come on stage and the show begins
+Pulling strings like a violin, fueling the souls within
+My ego is a diamond ring
+Scene is set, you’re my marionettes
+I’ll let you feel what you paid for
+meet the machine you were waiting for
+
+Our stage is a shopping catalog
+You can buy whatever you want
+Yes, we’re little sluts for attention
+Guess, we’re a bit nuts with intention
+But everyone is coming by
+to get entertained, to get satisfied
+Tell me your needs, we’re gonna comply
+We can do it all, you’d be surprised
+
+Culture saves us on a daily basis
+I know enough faces that can make it
+go to my homie, he knows how to phrase it
+when you’re lonely, read his poetry
+My friends making art here, breaking hearts here
+making music that is too sick
+I know painters and entertainers
+and creators and animators
+Forget the haters of labor
+that does the haters a favor
+By giving them the feels everyday
+fulfilling needs here, being low paid
+
+Standing ovation in a basement
+big applause, no replacement
+for the big names in the small spaces
+and the small names are never displaced
+People are hungry, they wanna see mommy
+Mommy’s gotta feed them, like a Tsunami
+Gobble the air coming outta my mouth
+I model the sphere, I model the crowd
+You wanna hear my wit and my thoughts
+give me applause, I’m not gonna pause
+Try to stop me, it’s your loss
+If we tryna censor art,
+what is left to discuss
