Scheduled for Unprepared Talk

1. Obscene Stone Objects

Unfamiliar city. Group of people, small group. Bale is there. Rigr too possibly. We enter a shop, somewhat esoteric (From notes). 

Big rooms, the place is rather deserted. Space to breathe. We entered straight from the road. Cross the road, etc. Stone buildings. No one there. After the income hall, there was a room, with on the left windows that look out to the patio or schoolyard behind the shop. There is another room behind this one. All in one row. On the right are the private quarters of the shopkeeper who I don't see, but at some point I sense his presence. Light. On the right dark.

This room has all kinds of stone objects, art. Crisscross about the room, untidy. Although there is some system behind it. I have the idea these are not for sale. All's on the floor. Big objects that look like penises. In the middle, after I've seen most of the room, is one that looks like a turtle, I like that. I don't like most of the objects, because they are too obscene. Most are in the form pipes. Some are coloured with red lines, or are ruddy.

We go on. Behind the shop is a space for giving talks and outside of the building is a stone quarry.

The place for the talks is on the upper floor and outside, this is really the back of the shop and when we are here it is like we are in a different world. The world we see is deep below us and we overlook this stone quarry with deep pits and big stone constructions. Whole castles of stone, instead of sand, are built in the quarry. Obviously, a whole population lives here, though we don't see them at first. At first, all is empty. Later they come out. This people live by quarrying.

Large statues hewn from stone.

We stay up, there is a balcony like place, with tables like in a beer garden beside the street. Balustrade. We sit down. My mother sits across of me. Bale and Rigr on my side. There are a lot of people, or a lot of people enter, so it gets crowdy. Almost no room to sit, so many people. All on one side. There is a lane in the middle, and then across more tables with more people, among which the speakers of tonight.

At some point my mother starts saying something about school, one particular aspect, I forgot what, but I disagree, I think the idea is that she wants that the higher education will envelop all fields of study. I tell her this is impossible, but she starts to argue. Only at the end I say, it would take about twelve years if you would. First I say, three years, or nine years. She wants to revise the school system. I understand what she wants but it is unfeasible.

Then a person in a grey suit, a fat guy, announces the start of the talks. He will be the first speaker. He sits in the neighbourhood. We had not expected these series of talks, did not know in advance. All kinds of famous people will talk, among which Dirk de Wachter, which is a name mentioned, so he must have been among the crowd. Maybe Rito too.

Later we also have the booklet with the program in our hands, each one of us one. And there are indeed a lot of speakers, impressive. 

This first speaker talks French. When he finishes he says that he knows there is a specialist on the runes sitting in the room. That can only be me, so I look at him and he looks at me, pointing at me, suggesting I should give a talk. I do that, talking about the principles.

He wants to ask me something, wants to ask the specialist. And he has a microphone. I answer in English. I don't understand his French, he asks me something very specific, almost personal, but I don't understand the word, and I suppose it is Celtic. And then I think he may mean the Celts. And then I also hear him say that I suppose that is what he means. And I have to explain a little that I am not an expert on Celtic stuff. What I can do is speak about the parallels between Celtic and Runic alphabets.

After that I go sit back on my chair. Metal, tables too, like in a cafe. When I look at the booklet now, I see I am really on the program.

Most of the people on our side are people from the edge of society. Bale goes sit a little more to the side. I stay put where I am. I have a girl, maybe reminds of Rigr, but younger than me. She also reminds me of Math and a little of Inro. She has been with me the whole time.

2. Multiple Stimulation

(WET DREAM)

Can't remember the circumstances. Dark, inside. Greens and purples. End of the dream. I could not hold back, because the impulses kept coming, one after the other.

+3. Hair

Earlier dream. Pieces of my hair about, I have to clean. There is my hair in the bin too, but it needs to be cleaned. I gather these.
