This is quite unconventional, but I reckon some of the readers of The Huge Entity might relish the chance to apply their critical perspectives, so here goes... I am currently studying for a Masters Degree. As part of this I have written an article, which will…

"...I received from Oxford the manuscript you have examined. I lingered, naturally, on the sentence: I leave to the various futures (not to all) my garden of forking paths . Almost instantly, I understood: 'the garden of forking paths' was the chaotic novel;…

Submit to the blog! Here be endless streams of symbols given birth in waves. As the seahorse father issues forth his young - disseminating, in the process, the patterns of parenthood - so shear activity in language breaks the corollary of meaning; necessarily…

I am currently reading British Philosopher John Gray's - Heresies: Against Progress and Other Illusions . I tend to be turned on by anything controversial, but throw religion into the mix, slide in a healthy dollop of political cynicism, whisk that into a…

"Cheshire Puss," she began, rather timidly... "Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?" "That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat. "I don't much care where..." said Alice. "Then it doesn't matter which way you…

There are better ways to animate your brain stem: The Huge Entity will be back soon. Can't you wait just a little longer?

There are times when the capacity for change overwhelms the identity of a subject. Qualities ascribed to an entity somehow anticipate their forthcoming metamorphosis, essentially prompting their own demise; manifold idiosyncrasies mutating themselves into a…

As this year draws to a close and my first trip home in 18 months looms large ahead of me, the concept of time has been made prominent in my imagination. 2005? What does it mean? That 2005 years ago some bloke in some nonsense-scripture was allegedly born to…

The Huge Entity , ever alert at the call for action, constantly offers you new ways to survive its hugeness: Post

I've been rolling this idea around my head for a while now, it's time to connect it with something... Merz is a nonsense word coined by German artist Kurt Schwitters. Mislabeled as part of the Dada movement his addition to abstract art is frequently…

I've been in a very contemplative mood recently, mulling over the books I've read this year, and the notes that go with them, and feeling as if this website has evolved to the stage where its character has been realised. I keep aiming to start writing…

If you thought religion grappled with a multitude of concepts that border on the insane , you should take a look at The Huge Entity archives sometime. Is there some sort of higher purpose behind the pulsating nonsense this blog continually erupts? What have I…

My smallest and most double-plus good school. Hakamano has 10, count them, 10 pupils in its joint elementary and junior high school, and as the only local Gaijin/English Teacher I have almost infinite free reign over what I do. Lessons carried out have so far…

As you may have noticed I have seriously overhauled my blog's design. Where once resided a dodo of the blogging world - incredibly unique, yet clumsy looking; a creature destined to go extinct - you will now find something akin to a duck-billed platypus -…

Following a process that took longer than my voyage through puberty, and induced much less hormonal fun, I finally bought a new car this week. The infamous Japan blogger YongFook was the previous owner and in some twisted dealing of my fate he decided to pass…

In an attempt to discover exactly what 10 months in Japan can do to a gaijin's personality I have turned to the utterly unscientific Face Analyzer.com - A voyage into the unknown oracle of online face analysing software. The results are somewhat startling (…

So I took down the post. There were several reasons, the main one being that deep down I am too much of a cynic about everything to be against any specific ignorance. Someone pointed out to me that ignorance is also subjective. I didn't want to end up…
