"Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius" - a reading
Added 2022-02-16 23:27:31 +0000 UTCBecause I haven’t done one of these in a while, and because this is a writer who’s been on my mind a lot of late, here is a reading of Jorge Luis Borges’s stunning short story “Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius”.
I want to apologize for any embarrassing pronunciation fuck-ups in here. I did look stuff up where I was unsure but I bet I got something wrong.
Music is by Ben Seretan, Lee Rosevere, and Sergei Cheremisinov. Cover photo is by Rob Wanenchak.

A wonderful reading of a hauntological ur-text (post-created from RW Chambers (“a certain greenish tint of yellow”) through it's pre-referencing of T Chiang (“”as a series of mental processes which do not develop in space but successively in time”)). Thank you.
