Matty Dalrymple talks with Doug Dorst about RUNNING AT THE CREATIVE RISK, using the book he co-authored with J.J. Abrams, S., as an example. We discuss the power of thinking you have no chance, sacrificing verisimilitude for the reading experience, how having a creative safety net lets you run straight at the risk, the joy of creating a tactile experience, the importance of not turning away from what's strange or complicated, lo-fi options for creating your own outside-the-box book, and the freedom of creating without expectations.

The state of mind and body that blocks any awareness of the presence of greater being inevitably produces a special kind of suffering....We must strive to reach a state where our transparency to Divine Being endures....It is essential to discover within ourselves an attitude - even a physical posture - in which we can be open and submissive to the demands of our inner being while at the same time allowing this inner being to become visible and effective in the midst of our life in the world. And for this to happen we must so transform our ordinary daily life that every action is an opportunity for inner work. Karlfried Graf Durckheim None of us want to be ordinary. We long for the extraordinary. Our inner being - our soul - longs to soar above and beyond the mundane. And so we strive for greatness, searching for whatever will help us clamber....higher. But too often, we confuse the extraordinary with what seems to be the highest peak in the realm of the ordinary. And yet a caterpillar does not seek transformation by climbing the highest tree to feast on the best leaves or becoming the fastest on its many feet or seeking a name for itself amongst all other caterpillars. No, a caterpillar eventually reaches a stage in its life when it seeks to go beyond the ordinary entirely. To seek the truly extraordinary. And to do so, it spins a beautiful cocoon out of silk, ceases all of its normal ways to living, and enters a place of silence. Stillness. Here it allows the natural unfolding of metamorphosis to transform it into something entirely new. We humans are equally designed for such transformation, but unlike the caterpillar, we resist the call to cocoon and change because we don't like stillness. And silence. And you will remain unchanged as long as you ignore the call within. As the villain in the book S by JJ Abrams and Doug Dorst illustrates, you will remain firmly planted in the ordinary... As long as you choose extraction over creation, as long as you mistake commerce for art and destruction for progress, as long as you remain drunk on the juice that issues from the crush of a thing or place or person.... as long as you conflate power with influence, primacy with honor, goal with purpose, duty with responsibility. These earthly shadows of the extraordinary are no substitute for the divine. Today we will review the last six episodes of Awestruck to see the overarching depiction of how we can live in the tension between the external demands of an ordinary world and the internal yearning for transcendent being.

There is a powerful human need to locate evil—that is, to contain it by assigning it a specific, bounded place (in some cases, a particular person)—even though this is impossible. The boundaries of evil are blurry and porous, if they can be said to exist at all. Doug Dorst, from the book co-created by he and J. J. Abrams, "S". We all want to be rid of the evil in our lives. In some cases, an individual or entire groups of people define themselves by their singular devotion to locating a particular brand of evil and eradicating it. The challenge, however, is isolating the actual location of evil. And in our efforts, it might go something like this. We see a person caught on video commit an indefensible and unspeakable atrocity. This person, we reason by the evidence, is evil. But the boundary cannot be contained to this one individual. No. We see that he has some characteristic that identifies him as part of a larger group. We detect some sort of "uniform" that indelibly marks him as part of a team. And that team must be held responsible for its team member’s evil. This team could be a race, an authoritative power, a political party, a religious organization, an educational institution, or any other identifiable group. Once we determine that the entire team is evil based on one or more of its members being caught red-handed, we set our sights on a righteous quest to topple it in the name of defending the innocent and ridding the world of darkness. The problem, as we will see in today's episode, is that our quest to locate evil is sometimes greatly misguided. Rarely does the guilt of one imply the guilt of all, and often the apparent guilt of one may be misinterpreted by the limitations of our perspective. Worse yet, we may define some person or people as evil solely to justify our own desires to obtain something we want or protect something we believe to be rightfully ours. This itself is evil, and eventually someone will see it for what it is and go on a quest to defeat it. And so the cycle repeats itself. How do we break the chain of evil? How do we identify and locate true evil and rid the world of it once and for all? Where is the compass that guides us on our quest? Let's find out.

Denis Scheck stellt den Roman "S" von J.J. Abrams und Doug Dorst vor, der vom "New Yorker" als eines der schönsten Bücher des Jahres empfohlen wurde. Ein raffiniert verschachtelter Roman, in dem zwei Studenten einem unter Pseudonym schreibenden Autoren auf der Spur sind, dessen Roman "Das Schiff des Theseus" von einem unbekannten Übersetzer herausgegeben wurde. In den Fußnoten entdecken die beiden einen geheimnisvollen Code. Und sie geraten dadurch in Gefahr.
Sometimes the trickiest part of writing is simply beginning. You can't finish what you don't start, but there is something overwhelming about the blank page or empty screen. And revisiting a manuscript you abandoned a while ago dredges up all kinds of fears and worries. So how do writers cope? How does one motivate his/herself to sit down every day and keep going? In this episode, WLT Program director talks with panelists Doug Dorst, Jardine Libaire, ire’ne lara silva about how to take a project from the idea stage to the writing stage.

Like most episodes, this one consists of two segments. In the initial segment, Ames and Trauman talk about their adventures into the world of DIY audio cables. Though not without challenges, their efforts were ultimately successful. They reflect on the practical rewards and emotional satisfaction of measuring, stripping, soldering, and testing. And of course the conversation moves beyond the specifics of cable-making in general to larger questions about the value of DIY approaches to scholarship and creative work. And Ames makes Trauman blush. Like three times. In the Creative-Critical-Scholarly-Spotlight (CCSS) section, Ames points to a few different texts. They include: Present Tense: A Journal of Rhetoric in Society (Vol. 5.2: Special Issue on Race, Rhetoric, and the State). Citizen: An American Lyric by Claudia Rankine. Don't Let Me Be Lonely: An American Lyric by Claudia Rankine Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates This episode's second segment brings to your the penultimate discussion of J.J. Abrams and Doug Dorst's experimental storytelling project S. Even thought we LOVE this book, it's certainly not without its flaws. This is easily our most detailed discussion, and we take the authors to task in a couple of ways they didn't really deliver on the enormous early promise of this project. And stay tuned for an additional blog post where Trauman offers more detailed information about the cable making materials and techniques he and Ames discuss in this episode.
[insert player here] In this episode, we offer two segments and spotlight three excellent texts. In our first segment, we continue our discussion of S., the experimental novel by J.J. Abrams and Doug Dorst. As we reflect on reading chapters 7,8,9, and an "interlude," we return to some of the main themes of the book: scholarship, love, identity, documentation, and collaboration. It's such an amazing book. You should really get yourself a copy, start reading it, and keep listening to us talk about it. In the second half of the episode, Ames and her frequent collaborator, Phil Bratta have a conversation about participating in a radical dance workshop with Guillermo Gomez Pena and Sara Shelton Mann this past summer. And between these two segments, we want to point your attention to three excellent texts we've been reading and thinking about lately: "Crafting Malfunction: Rhetoric and Circuit-Bending" by Steven Hammer and Aimee Knight. (from Harlot of the Arts). "Buy-It-Yourself: How DIY Got Consumerized" by Elizabeth Chamberlain (from Harlot of the Arts). "Glitching Out with Casey Boyle" from the podcast, Rhetoricity, by Eric Detweiler. This episode is available for direct download here. Check out the podcast on iTunes and subscribe here.

In episode 6 of Masters of Text, Ames presents the first part of a three-section piece called “The New Work of Reading,” an experimental audio-autoethnographic piece in which she examines her own process of learning to read multimodal scholarship. This episode also features the third segment of our S. Project, a dialogue that focuses on what we thought about Chapters 4, 5, and 6 of S.. by J.J. Abrahams and Doug Dorst. As an interlude, Trauman offers a spotlight on a couple of texts he recommends our listeners check out.
In this episode, you meet us, the two hosts of the show, Ames Hawkins and Ryan Trauman. We talk a little about our backgrounds, how we met, and how this podcast came into being. In the second half of the episode, we discuss our first encounter with S., a novel by J.J. Abrams and Doug Dorst. But the book is also a fascinating experiment with storytelling and "book-ness."
The Miracle Girl(Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill) The crowds keep coming. More and more every day it seems . . . drawn by rumor and whisper and desperate wish. Somehow they heard about the little girl on Shaker Street. They come to see eight-year-old Anabelle Vincent, who lies in a comalike state--unable to move or speak. They come because a visitor experienced what seemed like a miracle and believed it was because of Anabelle. Word spread. There were more visitors. More miracles. But is there a connection? And does it matter? Set against the backdrop of the approaching millennium--with all its buzz about reckoning and doom--this impressive debut novel is narrated by Anabelle herself; by her devoted mother, who cares for her child while struggling to make sense of the media frenzy surrounding her; by Anabelle's estranged father, who is dealing with the guilt of his actions; and by the people who come seeking the child's help, her guidance, and her healing. Yet it tells a larger cultural story about the human yearning for the miraculous to be true, about how becoming a believer--in something, anything, even if you don't understand it--can sustain you. Praise forThe Miracle Girl: "To believe or not to believe--that is the question facing all who are touched by the comatose 'miracle girl' at the swirling center ofAndrew Roe'sdazzling debut. But more than an exploration of the mysteries of faith, it's also the unforgettable story of one family's struggle against tragedy. The result is an uplifting miracle of a book." --Will Allison, author ofLong Drive Home "InThe Miracle Girl, we're reminded that the desire for miracles always connotes dissatisfaction, even as it articulates a hope. Roe deftly explores this paradox . . . [and] examines the strange responsibility of being believed in. A stunning, confident debut." --Peter Rock, author ofThe Shelter Cycle "An incisive and insightful critique of America, investigating where we put our faith and why . . . It's a novel about what it means to be human, to be lost or broken, a little or a lot, and to seek connection and hope and maybe even transcendence in the world around us." --Doug Dorst, author ofS. andAlive in Necropolis Born and raised in the Los Angeles suburb of Whittier, California,Andrew Roehas had his fiction published inTin House, One Story,theSun, Glimmer Train, The Cincinnati Review, Slice, Pank, Avery Anthology, Gigantic, Freight Stories, Failbetter,theGood Men Project,and other literary magazines, as well as the anthologiesWhere Love Is Foundand24 Bar Blues.His nonfiction has appeared in theNew York Times, San Francisco Chronicle,Salon.com,SF Weekly, San Francisco Bay Guardian,and elsewhere.

Doug Dorst is a wonder at words and worlds. He’s a master of bringing the known and unknown, the mundane and the strange, into immediate proximity to one another is such a way that the line begins to fade. Whether it’s insecure police officers encountering restless ghosts romping through northern California in his debut novel...

Conceived by filmmaker J.J. Abrams and written by novelist Doug Dorst, S has been hailed as a brand new reading experience, but does it live up to the hype? Joining host Sasha deBuyl are Nicola Balkind, freelance writer and books blogger and Iain Morrison, Enterprise Manager at Edinburgh's Fruitmarket Gallery. S is an ambitious and complex work with multiple strands fighting for the reader's attention. The core text, Ship of Theseus, is the final work of fictional author V. M. Straka, presented with footnotes from the translator. Additionally, a multi-coloured sprawl of notes in the margins reveals an unfolding relationship between two readers as they try to decipher the mysteries of the book and its author. A feast for the senses, S comes stuffed with with paraphernalia, including maps, letters, photocopied articles and a code wheel, making it a truly tactile experience. The book is certainly beautiful, but does the story meet the high standards set by the design? Is the intrigue created by S enough to keep readers hooked, or is the challenge of the book's structure too much? Have a listen and find out what our panel thought, and join in the discussion in the comments or by tweeting us @scottishbktrust or leaving a message on our Facebook page.
The exceedingly British Wesley "Wezzo" Mead makes his triumphant return to Gobbledygeek, where he regales Paul and AJ with the triumphant story of his triumphantly watching five terrible movies (well, one of them wasn't bad) in one triumphant day. It's all very triumphal. Paul also recounts how Alabama went post-apocalyptic wasteland after a few inches of snow, there's a far too thorough discussion of the leaked Ninja Turtles designs, and to cap it all off, there's some Breaking British News. Next: our first-ever Gobbledy-Book Club begins! We'll be having a month-long discussion of S by J.J. Abrams and Doug Dorst. If you'd like to read along, we're starting with the first three chapters, up through page 110.
On this episode, Dave and Barry recount their experiences and play some audio recorded at the recent J.J. Abrams event in New York City where he was promoting his new book “S” along with author Doug Dorst. The evening started with a panel discussion hosted by Lena Dunham (from HBO’s series “Girls”), they also took questions from the audience and then they signed books. All this, plus a J.J. centric Desert Island DVD’s and a brand new segment hosted by Tod called the Long Box which is all about comics.

With Mark Lawson, including an interview with critic and writer Hermione Lee about her new biography of Penelope Fitzgerald, who published her first novel at the age of 60, and won the Booker Prize with her book Offshore at the age of 63. With the news of a massive find of Nazi looted art in a Munich flat this weekend, Mark speaks to art critic Bill Feaver and Head of Collections at the Berlin Jewish Museum Inka Bertz about the connection to the 1937 "Entartete Kunst" - the Degenerate art exhibition in Berlin which included work by Picasso, Paul Klee, Kandinsky and Nolde. J J Abrams, the creator of TV series Lost, discusses his latest work - S - a novel where the writing is not just between the lines but in the margins and in scraps of paper embedded between the pages. S tells the story of a book written by a mysterious author and two of its readers who correspond to each other via its yellowing pages. Abrams talks of its conception and why he handed the project to novelist Doug Dorst, while he worked on Star Trek and the new Star Wars movies. Fresh Meat returns to our screens tonight, joining the students at the beginning of their second year at university. John Yorke, former head of EastEnders and author of Into the Woods: A Five Act Journey into Story, joins Mark to reflect on how TV has used the passage of time to bolster plots and storylines. Producer Jerome Weatherald.
Doug Dorst is the guest. His latest novel, co-authored with film director J.J. Abrams, is called S. (Mulholland Books). USA Today calls it "...an intriguing and impressive experiment in storytelling that's full of paranoia, conspiracy theory, love and mystery..." And The Telegraph calls it "...a beautiful hardback carefully distressed to look like an old library book, stuffed with astonishing ephemera (postcards, newspaper clippings, photos, letters) that flutter from the turning pages - and a dose of film-industrial chicanery in its cover claims as well..."
