garde

Yeah, avant garde doesn't really work for web design as soon as it starts impacing readability.

I mean it's as if people use the word "experiment" to justify being avant-garde. Except in this case it's not even a controversial thing.

I couldn't help noticing that many of the actors took a somewhat avant-garde interpretation of the source material." A: "Yes, as if they didn't want it to seem like they were 'acting', so to speak?"

In the future, this may become easier as certain technologies become democratised, and the avant-garde again becomes the status quo. We saw this with Escoffier, Bocuse.

- ranging down to the 'single pixel' works of early 20th century avant-garde monochromatic paintings. Anyhow, neat product and I'm sure even a lawsuit from Midway/Atari would be good press.

But for some people, it's a personal thing, they simply enjoy learning, much as an Architect who designs tract houses might still enjoy reading about new, avant garde office buildings.

Can anyone recommend a good novice-friendly Linux distro with a clean, consistent UI that isn't being progressively replaced with presumptuous avant-garde nonsense?

Just to be clear, you are comparing two hip hop artists, two comedians, two actors, and an avante garde pop artist to the CEO of a mobile games company? In fact you are comparing a group of individuals who are all famous or infamous in their own way for being edgy and/or a mess, to a company that makes family friendly games.

The key point is that Bluetouff made an important admission, apparently during his 30 hours of "garde à vue", meaning, being under arrest at the police station, where he seemingly neglected to apply his right to remain silent: he recognized that, when going up the folder hierarchy, he landed on a username-password login page. From this, according to the court, he should have inferred that the documents were private and that he had nothing to do there.

, you will need to know about its genesis, about its criticism of structuralism, modernism, idealism, society, art as an institution, the avant-garde movements etc. All I am saying is while addressing a wider audience is an admirable goal, it becomes harder and harder to achieve the higher the paper's complexity.

They are now apparently paying Orange in France for mobile traffic related to services like YouTube [1], again trading short term business sense for eventually losing the net neutrality fight and turning the whole internet into many walled gardens at the hands of ISPs. They have settled with news websites in France [2] to avert legal repercussions by a government that is essentially being blackmailed by press. 60 millions is pocket change for them, but the precedent this sets will endanger their business in many countries where press is dying and abusing their power to force governments to pass laws that will benefit their old business models very much to the detriment of Google. They are facing the same thing in Germany right now. News websites by the old printing press garde are the antithesis to the web.

Number one is the avant-garde pitfall, where you have the idea that youre writing for other writers, so you dont worry about making yourself accessible or relevant. You worry about making it structurally and technically cutting edge: involuted in the right ways, making the appropriate intertextual references, making it look smart. Not really caring about whether youre communicating with a reader who cares something about that feeling in the stomach which is why we read. Then, the other end of it is very crass, cynical, commercial pieces of fiction that are done in a formulaic way essentially television on the page that manipulate the reader, that set out grotesquely simplified stuff in a childishly riveting way. Whats weird is that I see these two sides fight with each other and really they both come out of the same thing, which is a contempt for the reader, an idea that literatures current marginalization is the readers fault. The project thats worth trying is to do stuff that has some of the richness and challenge and emotional and intellectual difficulty of avant-garde literary stuff, stuff that makes the reader confront things rather than ignore them, but to do that in such a way that its also pleasurable to read.
