The Ludic Frame (The Liberal Art) Because it is a good game: Got Rules, a substantial part of which may be learning them as I play— ooops, oooh, damnit-- superseding or reformatting, reconfiguring the explicit, common- sense we all know and love: admonishing each other,shaking a finger, warning, conspire to uphold. Ludic. In play. Liberal Art Converse Action. “What unlike things must meet and mate.” The practice of dialectic can’t even begin until some one gets hurt. Not your sticks & stones hurt: bells & whistles & border violations. Home land Insecurity incursion. Hands across the I’ll. An enemy as good as a Buddha and you got to lovem or forget about it. Liberal Art II Not for liberals. No liberals need apply. Conservatives neither—holding on, holding on to what they got. Beyond the Goodies & the Weasels, the rational & the irrational, logic & illogic, dreams & waking life, offense & defense, common sense, nonsense, & no sense at all, beyond the symbolical & the diabolical: 3 little pigs, BB Wolf, hairs on my chinny chin chins. Liberal Art III. Is there a satan in the house? Accuser, adversary, joker, jester, clown, trickster – someone to put IT in play? IT, I said. Do I always got to be spelling IT out? Daring to disturb the universe? Eat a peach? (Wait’ll they get a load of this!) Thank god for IT then , how else get a wiggle on? Raise the dead?
