My BOEKS ate my HOOLAWHOOP

A message far too late, but I started a new initiatieve in January 2019, titled BOEKS, a platform for showing books on the Bijloke site in Ghent. After BOEKS was born, my Hoolawhoop faded out more or less... I really enjoyed Hoolawhooping for ten years though. Sigh, as in diepe zucht.

Maybe I'll return one day, as a slow blogspotter.

Until then you can follow BOEKS hero and thero:

I love the word trouble

"I love the word trouble. It refers to everything that is not limpid, tidy. It’s a word that gets medicalised too often; a word used inappropriately by the police. And maybe we have ended up mistrusting this word – even when it refers to something from our internal selves. I want to bring the word back into favour. Unlike “indecision”, it is a term that refers to a tumult of the mind, to a state of suspension, to a sort of opacity of the real. That which is trouble merely suggests, without providing a basis for naming what is to come or what will arise. Being troubled is a state familiar to lovers. We know."
