Betta Under The Radar: April 2006
http://bettahiddden.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Betta Under The Radar. A broken on-line papier machine. Sunday, April 30, 2006. Slept an unprecedented twelve hours the night before - unbroken. No dreams, no nightmares, only deep, deep unconsciousness. Upon waking, still that feeling of oppression - but slighter now, much slighter, like a fading bruise. Words no longer hold back their secrets. They yield to me as the friends of old.". Para; 2:57 PM. Friday, April 28, 2006. Outlines for two tales. THE CAVE OF RED RUBIES : Chapter Two. Unfortunately she ...

Betta Under The Radar: August 2006
http://bettahiddden.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Betta Under The Radar. A broken on-line papier machine. Monday, August 28, 2006. Some thoughts about beating the day, brought up by reading U.K. Le Guin's essays on writing and rhythm:. Then there's other people. When you're dancing to their beat it doesn't feel right. The body doesn't feel good about it, because if you want to do a two-step, you have to do a two-step, and you can't do a two-step if you don't get the rhythm in your head. Para; 2:27 PM. Thursday, August 24, 2006. Here I heap my own lump o...

Betta Under The Radar. A broken on-line papier machine. Wednesday, July 25, 2007. My first post must have been sometime in November 2005. The blog was called an on-line Papier Machine, after an installation by Australian sculptor Elizabeth Presa. A big influence on me), which in turn took its title from Derrida's collection of essays on the future of text and writing in the digital age. But I couldn't resist the blogging itch (as Newty calls it) and so Super Secret Center. A good friend recently brought ...

Betta Under The Radar: Raving genius
http://bettahiddden.blogspot.com/2007/01/raving-genius.html
Betta Under The Radar. A broken on-line papier machine. Tuesday, January 23, 2007. Just watched footage from his Spring 2006 runway show and I am totally in love. It was mad - midgets with pirates with sailors with whores with old women - and all loooking so absolutely beautiful. Men in dresses, women in tophats. So fantastic! Overwhelming sensation of pleasure buttons being pressed all at once*. Also it's been a much-needed reminder to me to go big, go bold, go brave - or go home. Para; 8:43 PM. This wo...

Restaurant Girl: June 2008
http://restaurantjourney.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 14, 2008. Dr T: Good to see you again. Your blood results just came in this morning. RG: Geoff, before you proceed with this conversation, just tell me one important detail - should I take up additional life insurance policies? Dr T: Don’t worry so much! RG: I can’t help it… I’m 25% fat and 75% cynic. Dr T: OK, everything’s pretty much in the normal range except your cholesterol. It’s almost double the acceptable average! Dr T: Start your diet tomorrow. This is mainly due to repetitive kni...

Restaurant Girl: March 2008

Sunday, March 30, 2008. Take it like a man, Small Fry! Most professional cooks still evaluate meats by their “feel” and by the way their juices flow:. Bleu meat – cooked at the surface, but just warmed within, remains relatively unchanged – soft to the touch, like the muscle between thumb and forefinger when it’s completely relaxed, with little or no coloured juice (some colourless fat may melt out). Medium-done meat - whose connective-tissue collagen has shrunk, is more firm – like the thumb-foref...

Friday, April 25, 2008. Feminine Female Chefs: A Dying Breed. Do you realise why there are so few female chefs (not including patisserie)? It boils down to the physical work and how the commercial kitchen is really designed for the average male. Each chef has a single dry towel to function as your kitchen glove, wipe up smears from plated food, clear your bench space and clean your knife. No one will take you seriously with a kitchen glove. Wednesday, April 16, 2008. Those who can't cook, criticise.

Betta Under The Radar. A broken on-line papier machine. Friday, January 12, 2007. When you have to sit still, you want to fly. When you have to fly, you want to sit still.". Why can't I find my balance? My head is a continent away from my feet. I look down and I want to hug the ground - like a homely, humble carpet. I look up and I dream. freedom, movement. In between is a huge mess, unsteady swinging back and forth - I just can't learn to move upon the ground. Para; 12:30 PM. Comments: Post a Comment.

Betta Under The Radar. A broken on-line papier machine. Friday, July 14, 2006. Who needs A drink? 8pm - Phew. I do. Looking at this drawing is almost as good as having one. Almost. mmm. I can taste it on my lips. Bring me to my pub! Para; 8:22 PM. The equivalent of roadkill - body squashed but head still juicy. Para; 4:47 PM. Yes, I keep a close watch on this heart of mine. Para; 4:28 PM. Thursday, July 13, 2006. Strange, this compulsion to reveal and conceal, as if telling is a kind of redemption. I not...
