Alabaster Crippens doesn't entirely believe in objective truth, therefore he can neither confirm or deny the accuracy of any statement, image or impression caused by, or displayed on, these pages of the so called 'internet'. He does however not want to get sued, even if the lawyers, legal system, and the concept of jurisprudence doesn't exist. Therefore if you believe the nonsense posted on here you do so entirely at your own risk. In other words: Don't sue me 'cause I might not mean it. Basically, anything you hear from anyone is unreliable, so if you want the 'truth' you need the perspectives of as many people as you can get..ideally people who are trustworthy and close to the particular 'truth' you wish to inspect. If you start trusting idiots with silly (and obviously made up) names then you're developing some kind of problem. Check your sources, examine their own politcal (or other) motivation, remember that anything people say is opinion unless you are certain that they speak the 'truth'. Even your own eyes can lie. Trust me on that one. Or don't..it doesn't bother me. Finally, everything written here is, to the best of my knowledge written by me and I reserve my right to be recognised as the author of these works. Any input from other sources should be clearly shown, if you note a mistake or anything..tell me..I'll try and sort out the problem. Please ask me if you want to use anything for commercial reasons...I probably won't mind but I need to know I'm not supporting anything I don't want to support. This is an attempt at a legal notice written without legal knowledge. Just follow the principles, I think most of you get what I mean, even if it won't stand up in a court of law. Just be polite you know...like in the good ole days.

Mounting Darkness and Creative Destruction on the Dark Mountain – Uncivilisation 2012
To civilise is to build. To uncivilise is to destroy? I may just be tired, but I actually feel very lost. Last year’s Dark Mountain Uncivilisation Festival made me grounded and full hearted, my mind swirling with ideas. This year, … Continue reading

The Unbearable Darkness of Mountains – Uncivilisation 2011
Last night, as the sun set, I wandered into the woods. Dosed up with Valerian and on barely any sleep (third hangover of the year, too soon after the second) I was already hazy, and I became totally and utterly … Continue reading

A Lone – Not so bad?
That’s me cuddling a snake. My glasses are always that wonky. #FACT I realise that I’m probably just going through a weird state of mind, but it occurred to me last night that I might be alone forever, and that … Continue reading

Freizeit- The Kindness of Strangers
It’s a little weird. Hard to get used to how far you can get on the kindness of strangers, with only the tiniest bit of language ability. It’s also terrifying. I have been weirdly isolated at times, but it’s pretty … Continue reading
Recession, Digression, Pretension – Moping Dope on a Train
This is a rant from the train journey back to Brighton. I wouldn’t read it if I were you. It’s self indulgent, self obsessed post Christmas malaise. The feeling is lingering longer than it should. I’m hoping this is just … Continue reading

Things they are a stirring
Arthur Russel – This is how we walk on the moon Basically, I feel a little guilty about not posting since forever, so I’m making up for it with a super short post full of delightful videos. It’s something at … Continue reading

It’s all in the Execution – Art with Heart
Corner of my bedroom, complete with Manet’s Execution of Emporer Maximillian and a Lichtenstien with a title I can’t find. First up, apologies for the puns in the title, sometimes (most times) I just can’t help myself. Right. Art. Hmm. … Continue reading

Themes and Variations – My Mind, My Image and My Space

That’ll Learn ‘em
I’m tired. So there’ll be a lack of coherency, but that’s fine, I don’t think anybody has any expectations round here. It’s not often that I have thoughts at nine in the morning. Let alone coherent ones that stay in … Continue reading

Self and Determination – Me and my Gender

Where is the left? – One hand can’t find the other as Capitalism Collapses
Okay. A current conversation with the lovely PaulGrahamRaven on twitter is goading me into writing a piece I wanted to write a while back. This is going to get messy. And maybe it should. Also, first up. A confession/analysis regarding … Continue reading

Journeys don’t end – Learnings and Wanderings
Okay, lots of things to try and agglomerate, and my heads a bit brokes by all this, so there may be confustion. Also, can I briefly recommend Twitter, and particularly me on Twitter. I’m starting to get into this, and … Continue reading

On Consumption – Love, the Universe, a Hairy Thing
Okay, so first, a little thing I wrote in my notepad a month or so ago whilst drunk on a train down to Torquay. Just needed to do something creative, and thought I’d ponder some of my more pathetic/romantic sensibilities. … Continue reading

Towards Definitive Emancipation
So, it turns out the pope is a massive cunt. Who knew? I’m particularly impressed with the way he managed to phrase his statements so that he’s not just anti-homosexuality, but anti-any stepping out or transgression or even playfulness with … Continue reading

Sekks and Muzak
So, I’m supposed to be hammering away at my Nanovel right now, and I just can’t get myself into the swing of it. I’m not happy with anything in it and I’m not engaged with the characters or plot at … Continue reading
