Inside the work
Blown Dust, Tactless Data Loss describes itself as a state-of-the-art report while continually sabotaging the possibility of a stable report. The page orders the reader to flip around, read backwards, make something else and distrust explanation; “acts of incoharrogance” replace ordinary argument with a deliberate mixture of arrogance, incoherence and self-accusation.
The work is unusually explicit about its own verbal category problem. A remembered description of the writing as “prose-poetry” is rejected in favor of assault, puzzle-prose or some other provisional object. Robert Anton Wilson, Joyce, dream logic, disability writing, harpists, publication metrics and missing-phone uncertainty all enter the same field. The result repeatedly makes the inability to look something up part of cognition rather than a temporary inconvenience.
Its publication machinery is also foregrounded: subscription prompts, money requests, blind links and the intoxicating rise of audience numbers become compositional material. “NUMBER GO UP” is not merely platform criticism; it names the bodily reward that makes the platform difficult to reject.
Read beside ERRORISM, Productive Refusal and Commerce / Conversion as Composition, the work is an early manual for letting delivery failure, uncertainty and bad categorization generate form.
