About Me

"When the stress is too much on intellectual form, when the original moral purpose has lost it's vitality, philosophy becomes learned and dialectical. When there is cloudy desire, unclarified and unsustained by the logical exhibition of attained science, philosophy becomes hortatory, edifying, sentimental, or fantastic and semi-magical. The perfect balance may hardly be attained by man, and there are few indeed who can, like Plato, even rhythmically alternate with artistic grace from one emphasis to the other. But what makes philosophy hard work and also makes its cultivation worth while, is precisely the fact that it assumes the responsibility for setting forth some ideal of a collective good life by the methods which the best science of the day employs in its quite different task, and with the use of the characteristic knowledge of its day. The philosopher fails when he avoids sophistry, or the conceit of knowledge, only to pose as a prophet of miraculous intuition or mystic revelation or a preacher of pious nobilities of sentiment.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 27/11/2004
Band Website: http://www.old-table.de/
Band Members: Players of D&D create characters who embark upon imaginary adventures in which they battle monsters, gather treasure, interact with each other, and earn experience points to become increasingly powerful as the game progresses. D&D departs from traditional wargaming by assigning each player a specific character, as opposed to an army. Miniature figures or markers on a grid are sometimes used to represent these characters. D&D also introduced the concept of a Dungeon Master (DM), a referee and storyteller responsible for maintaining the fictional setting of the game as well as enforcing the rules of the game.
Influences: Rock & Roll, Captain Beefheart, the minutemen, Dionne Warwick, pavement, Blue Velvet (the band), No One and the Somebodies, Davey Danger, Paul Mc Cartney's first album, SMOG, The Meat Puppets, The Shaggs, Monk, Coltrane, Albert Ayler, Ornette Coleman, Sonny Sharrock, Beat Happening, DIY, local music, personal times, Emma Time. Chairs, Pieces of Broccoli, Condom spelled backwards.
