Reason interviews John Perry Barlow
Reason interviews John Perry Barlow
08/12/2004 04:36 PMReason has published the best interview with John Perry
Barlow I've read. He talks about becoming a reality TV star, a
Democrat, and getting busted for marijuana possession at an airport.
I have grave misgivings about John Kerry, but I certainly don’t
have misgivings about Kerry that equal the terror I have about another
four years of Bush. What he’s done to aspects of the
Constitution that are there to assure individual rights is
breathtakingly bad.
...
I had a conversation with Kerry. It was pretty disheartening. I
asked how he felt about civil liberties. He said, "I’m for
’em!" That’s great, but how do you feel about Section 215
of the Patriot Act? He said, "What’s that?" I said, it basically
says any privately generated database is available for public scrutiny
with an administrative subpoena. He says, "It says that?" I say, "You
voted for it!"

John Perry Barlow's Trial Commences
John Perry Barlow's Trial Commences
12/17/2004 06:42 PM
John Perry Barlow's trial commences and is commented upon
by Seth David Schoen. A most interesting paragraph was:
"First follow-up question: If you think a bottle contains an
improvised explosive device, is it appropriate to shake it?
No, that's almost the worst thing you can do.
Second: Is it appropriate to open the bottle?
No, that's the worst thing you can do.
The defense then argued that Ms. Ramos could not really have believed
that the ibuprofen bottle in question contained an improved[sic]
explosive device, because she had testified that, on removing it from
Barlow's bag, she became suspicious of it, then shook it, and then
opened it. These actions were the most dangerous actions she could
possibly have taken if she really believed that the bottle might
contain explosives..."

RNC-NYC: report from John Perry Barlow's

RNC-NYC: report from John Perry Barlow's
dance protests
09/01/2004 05:11 PM
Xeni Jardin:
Follow-up on this previous BoingBoing post from Cory:
Link. As he steps out the door to "lead another sortie of dancing
fools out into the streets of Manhattan," John Perry Barlow reports on
the dance protests he's been organizing this week in NYC:
After four missions, Dancing in the Streets has exceeded my fondest
expectations. It was my objective, as it usually is, that we afflict
the comfortable and comfort the afflicted, and this is what we have
been doing by all appearances. We generally make the credentialed
Republicans we encounter visibly nervous and spread good will and
humor to most of the rest, including the police, who could well use it
at the moment. People dig it when they see other people dancing in
incongruous places. The most surprising people will join in, falling
on the dance with a kind of hunger.
Republicans were hard to encounter at first. They are being
quarantined behind the blue membrane of the NYPD (for whom my
affection and respect has only increased through this experience). In
addition, they spend much of their time inside the Garden having a lot
less fun than we were. (As several of them told us.) Levels of
engagement have increased with fine-tuning. The results vary, ranging
from the Stepford husband whom we made so nervous that he walked into
a plate glass window to the sweet young delegate from Oklahoma who
tore off his tie and joined us for the balance of the evening.
We've had many interactions with the police. They certainly weren't
interested in arresting us, though they kept us moving. Several of
them said wistfully they wanted to join us. In general they only
interfered because they are trying to maintain as familiar a peace as
they can. Major variations from standard reality worry them. But not
enough to go maximum on us.

"...we need something -- and I think it’s governmental -- to
reregulate the market and make it free, because the multinationals

DANCING IN THE STREETS: REVOLUTION WITH A
SMILE
I spent most of my political life as a Republican. While that's a
little hard to imagine now, I have sufficient experience to know that
the commonly held view that Republicans either can't dance or won't
dance is inaccurate. When I was a Republican, I was as dedicated to
dancing as I am now and there were others like me, as I recall.
Still, part of what drove me from the party - aside from a
categorical repudiation by the current administration of most
Republican principles - is a dour dancelessness that crept into
Republican "culture." It seems increasingly ironic to call the GOP a
party at all...
Maureen Dowd recently observed that the Republicans had become so
obsessed with rejecting the 60's ethic of doing it if it feels good
that they have taken up an ethic of doing it if it makes someone else
feel bad. Moreover, the GOP strategy of basing their root-level
organization on Hot Protestantism has infused their ranks with a lot
of chilly Puritanism, which, as H.L. Mencken defined it, is "the
haunting fear that someone, somewhere, is having a good time."
These were among the factors in mind recently as I turned my
thoughts to what I might do to vex the Republicans when they gather in
New York a month from now. Furious as I may be at their policies,
conventional protest is not an option.
If it were peaceful protest, they would ignore it even if two
million people turned up. They have a demonstrated capacity to do
that. Indeed, the administration consists of such fervent God-anointed
idealists that they would "stay the course" against any opposition
short of a majority too overwhelming to rig their electronic voting
machines against.
If the protests in New York should turn even a little violent, it
will be to Bush's benefit. This is so much the case that I rather
expect to see undercover agents provocateurs scattered among the
ragtag disaffected who will shortly descend on Manhattan. And the
NYPD, while generally my favorite police force on the planet, can get
themselves in a froth when they feel spooked. One thrown bottle could
result in days of riveting television, during which Bush would have
plenty of opportunity to pretend, convincingly to some, that he was
Gary Cooper.
Besides, anyone with an explicit intention to protest Republican
policies, anyone carrying an anti-Bush sign, indeed, anyone wearing a
neither a smile nor a Bush button, is likely to be corralled into one
of the remote "Free Speech Zones" that Mayor Bloomberg will graciously
provide his guests, there to vent his fury upon his fellow infuriated.
None for me, thanks.
I have another idea, and you can help. Indeed, as wild, fun-loving
BarlowFriendz, I'm counting on you to help.
I want to dance in the streets.
I don't want to confront the Republicans. I want to discombobulate
them. I don't want to argue with them, which would only convince them
further, I want to throw them off their game. I don't want to be
aggressive in my discontent. God knows there's been plenty of that on
all sides. I want to be genial. But disconcerting.
So, to that end, I propose the following: I want to organize a
cadre of 20 to 50 of us. I want to dress us in suits and other plain
pedestrian attire and salt us among the sidewalk multitudes in
Republican-rich zones. At a predetermined moment, one of us will
produce a boom-box and crank it up with something danceable. Suddenly,
about a third of the people on the sidewalk, miscellaneously
distributed in the general throng, will start dancing like crazy and
continue to do so for for about a minute. Then we will stop, melt back
into the pedestrian flow, and go to another location to erupt
there.
Perhaps if we enlist enough troops, we can have several platoons
simultaneously exploding into dance around Manhattan, so there will be
absolutely no way to tell where we might strike next.
I promise you, this will make the Republicans uncomfortable. They
will return to their partisan duties with a sense of disquiet that
will slightly but surely fuzz the intensity of their focus. Besides,
we'll enjoy it. That alone will irritate them. And we'll be doing
nothing they can arrest us for. Nor, for that matter, televise us
doing. By the time cameras arrive, we'll be gone.
I have to admit there's nothing terribly original about this idea.
I'm talking about forming a standard smart mob, similar to the group
my friend Reverend Billy convenes every Tuesday to wander around the
WTC PATH station, muttering the 1st Amendment. But it's a start, and I
think that once we get ourselves assembled, we will be able to cook up
a number of other creative pranks we might inflict on our thin-lipped
countrymen.
I may put up a web site that we can use to organize ourselves. In
the meantime, I will start a mailing list of everyone who wants to
participate. Furthermore, you can go to my blog
http://blog.barlowfriendz.net where this will also be posted and
participate in the discussion there.
Please e-mail me at once - at barlow at eff.org - if you're
interested. And pass this invitation to others who might be.
I've been thinking for some time that the problem with politics is
that doesn't know how to have a good time. And it certainly doesn't
dance enough. This is your chance to address both of these
deficiencies.
And remember the great Emma Goldman who said, "If I can't dance, I
want no part of your revolution." What she knew is that dancing is
itself a revolutionary act. Come revolt with us. And bring your
smile.
Yippie-ti-yo,
John Perry Barlow

03/15/2003 06:05 AMKALW in San Francisco did an
hour
long radio interview with John Brady Kiesling and John H. Brown,
the American Foreign Service officers who resigned over Bush's Iraq
policy. Both are impressive speakers, and Kiesling is as articulate
and as convincing as his letter:
If we can't convince
our historical allies that this is a good thing to do, there is no way
we are going to be able to convince the Arab world.
People have to take a stand. War may be inevitable, but we need to do
what we can to keep our consciences clean.
There is a policy to make America safer, but this is not it.
"America is still the safest country in the world. The
administration is trying to scare people with this talk about terror
and duct tape. We should use our safety and prosperity and our
strength to do good and we can do good."
Brown said his resignation was "in part a result of Andrew Card's
comment, 'Never launch a product in August.' War is not a
product."
I learned a lot from listening to it. Recommended. Requires

As always, the full text of his essay is a great
read, but this idea of discombobulation as protest is funny and seems
appropriate as well. I wonder if we can map "I don't think it's funny"
split. I wonder if this would constitute "terrorism". I guess it might
depend on what they were dancing to.

Barlow on Spalding Gray: "Is he finally
swimming to Cambodia?"
01/17/2004 10:57 PM
John Perry Barlow, a friend
of missing monologist Spalding Gray, writes:
I try to imagine him actually attempting a swim to
Cambodia. I see him swan-diving from the rail of the Staten Island
Ferry late Saturday night when he disappeared, rounding Sandy Hook by
dawn, and turning south for Cape Horn. He'd be well past the mouth of
the Delaware by now, strong swimmer that he is. What a great monologue
this is going to make. Or not. Spalding inhabits a magical reality
where such feats might actually be possible, but there is something
about the current state of New York Harbor that seems adamantly unfit
for human survival. In my less magical reality, it's easier to see him
beneath all that black water.
Still, it seems premature to write one of those eulogies that I all
too often compose for my closest friends. Part of me thinks I should
be out there looking for him rather than writing this. Perhaps, I
think, he just went out on one of his famous walks, walks that I
shared for many droll miles. Perhaps he was hit by a cab and is lying
comatose and unidentified in one of this perilous island's anonymous
hospitals. He left his wallet and ID at his loft and would thus have
been taken for another homeless drifter, as he frequently was. He
could be holed up somewhere, waiting for his mood to pass. But he
hates (or hated) to be alone. Neither seems likely, but where there's
no proof, there remains hope, however unrealistic. What is grief
without finality? A terrible confusion and an opportunity to celebrate
what one might still have.

"A Collection of Rarities" The John Tradescants (Elder and
Younger) lived in London
in the 16th and 17th centuries. Adventurous travellers, diploma
ts, horticultural
pioneers, polymaths, they were also collectors, acquiring (and
asking their friends to acquire) specimens of the wonders of the
world. Their growing collection was housed in a large house --
"The Ark" -- in Lambeth, London. The Ark was the
prototypical Cabinet of Curiosity or Wunderkammer, a collection of
rare and strange objects. The Tradescant's collection was eventually transferred to -- and some say it
was swindled out of them by -- Elias Ashmole,
who used it to start The
Ashmolean Museum in Oxford. The Tradescants are buried in St. Mary's Churchyard,
Lambeth, now home to the Museum of Garden
History.
