calloohar
seeks to molecularly and galactically supersede the calendar – not just the brutalist
rjgjcc (romanjuliangregorianjudeochristiancapitalist) calendar, dominant across
the planet in its morbid dealings, but all systems of organizing days for
purpose. since the calendar’s rise around 4200 years ago in egypt and babylon little
has changed – while there have been various innovations in nomenclature,
regional experiments in creative structures, increasing technical precision,
the calendar in its over 100 manifestations has remained effectively the same :
with minimal questioning or reconstituting. it has become radically misaligned
with the environments and realities we now inhabit yet our identities, psychologies,
social cultural and political edifices still cling to the irrelevance of our
core orders like superstitions
for now –
with history collapsed, the old binaries dissolving, god a distributed corpse
rotting in earth’s polluted soils, and time the strange purview of physicists and
the masses and warlords clinging to its fogs with a faith and desperation
magnanimously ludicrous, with nature having abdicated to its more forceful
relatives (mathematics and technology) and the city having risen like a new
monostar on a humanity compensating for its growing anxieties with a
garrulousness so diarrheal noah’s flood seems a puddle – a recreation is
required that frees from the monumental bondages of an otiose past an apocalyptic future and a spiritualpecuniary present, entering
what has always been here with visions rooted in the geometries of the new
which are – for those who see – not any new but the ancient shapes that live and walk among the animate trees and lakes comprehensively forgotten, long
before humans briefly and futilely tried to usurp them with their tiny years and
control the flows of existence with their flimsy definitions and days
when we
look at the various attempts at calendar reform over the past century we laugh.
laugh abyssal guttural guffaws. they’re no different than the myriad efforts
now to tweak capitalism to make it sustainable green equitable humane
intelligent. they think fixing a loose screw on a frying pan in one of the titanic’s
kitchens will stop the behemoth from sinking. their methods are teeny tactics
lacking any strategic acumen, their thoughts and models bound to the defects of
the very systems they seek to correct. what is required instead is a pilgrimage
to other lands of flesh and thought – those far away and in and underneath the centralized
ticking of our hearts, returning through republics of machines into empty
classrooms and ashen curricula where nightboards await desolate scrawlings
so if
calloohar – its names structures methods relations groundings – seem strange
incomprehensible whimsical unpractical absurd foolish even mad – don’t be
surprised. you’re just one of the billions who has not yet seen how lunatic
your calendar has been and in what orders of destitution you live within

calloohar is
for mystics and nomads digital peasants
and mute soft exiled anarchists for those hardly born of alphabets or signs purveyors of lightless light and keepers of
caesuras the electronically afflicted
and haruspicina of herpes the
marionettes of deserts launderers in
absinthe
calloohar
doesn’t tell you where in time you are or what time is or even where but how to
look. calloohar’s a quest of time, of accepting time’s concealings
time as the
mystic unit (the timenaht [or i’mnaht] wholly unmanifest and manifest in all
somethings), koo-shqa the naht horologist and chronodivinator
calloohar
is a manual – a set of rituals around geometric determinants : plural polymorphous
interior and dark enfolded randomly proper ritualized revolving
things
happen when they happen as they happen. time isn’t so much objective as our
orientation to flesh’s imagination. clock and calendar have far less to do with
time than our failed attitudes toward flesh and dream. by focusing on time’s
quantity (measurement history) and their
corollaries (productivity efficiency) we
have run away as we’ve run away from everything vital and integrated (through
fear insecurity indolence) from the qualities of time – doubting disaccumulating
passionate postembolistic mythic stochastic mnemonic rhythmic unmeasurable uncountable
halfburnt unconsumable nonclimactic divinatory ceremonial iconoclastic insignificant
