DADA-zen_23

"muss ich die weisheit mit dem löffel fressen, oder kanns auch mal messer und gabel sein. brauch ich überhaupt ein werkzeug, ein medium? sollte ich die weisheit mit händen reinschaufeln, oder kann ich sie gar trinken wie aus einer bergquelle?", fragte der schüler seinen meister. und seine antwort lautete: "starkes erbrechen", was er alsbald vollzog.

the snafu-principle

The Plan
In the beginning was the plan,
 and from the plan came the specification;
 And the plan was without substance,
 and the specification was void.
And darkness
 was on the faces of the workers;
 And they spake unto their leader,
 saying:
 "It is a crock of shit,
 and it stinks of the sewer."

And the leader took pity on them,
 and spoke to the project leader:
 "It is a pot of excrement,
 and none may abide the odor thereof."

And the project leader, troubled at this news,
 spake unto his section head, saying:
 "It is a container of manure,
 and it is very strong, such that none may abide it."

The section head then hurried to his department manager,
 and informed him thus:
 "It is a vessel of fertilizer,
 and none may abide its strength."

The department manager carried these words
 to his general manager,
 and spoke unto him
 saying:
 "It containeth that which aideth the growth of plants,
 and it is very strong."

And so it was that the general manager rejoiced
 and delivered the good news unto the Vice President.
 "It promoteth growth,
 and it is very powerful."

The Vice President rushed to the President's side,
 and joyously exclaimed:
 "This powerful new product
 will promote the growth of the company!"

And the President looked upon the product,
 and saw that it was very good.
This is how Shit Happens.

das S.N.A.F.U. prinzip

“Mit dem Akronym der beliebten US-Army-Diagnose »Situation normal all fucked-up« hatte Robert Anton Wilson einst beschrieben, wie die Kommunikationsstrukturen in vertikalen Organisationen arbeiten. Aus Angst wird in der Rangordnung von unten nach oben positiv ausgefiltert, also gelogen. Je weiter oben sich jemand in der Prestigepyramide befindet, desto verzerrter wird sein Bild von der Welt; wird ihm das klar, kann er es trotzdem kaum abstellen und verfällt der Paranoia. Populäres Beispiel für Snafu ist der über 100jährige Großkapitalist Monty Burns bei den »Simpsons«, dem von seiner Umgebung nur untertänigst begegnet wird und der in einer immer schrulligeren Welt voller Oldtimer und verblichener Präsidenten lebt.”

"This is the dead land
This is cactus land
Here the stone images
Are raised, here they receive
The supplication of a dead man's hand
Under the twinkle of a fading star." 
- T S Eliot: The Hollow Men
