Troisen is the home for a bunch of prototypes I've been building over the last year or so. It's a made up word, a trojan horse of inspiration. A reaction of the broheimification of the internet, the masculinity and obviousness of what ... http://suttree.com/2011/03/21/bliss-troisen-com/ Sometimes picking up the threads is harder than I'd imagine.

Current thoughts are: - checking-in to a network of people, not a network of locations - rather the anonymisation of people than the personification of buildings - a critical mass of presence, still a hippie commune bonafide http://suttree.com/2010/11/26/a-hippie-commune-bonafide/ “Everywhere you look, there seem to be increasing signs that we are living inside a novel that JG Ballard started to write at the exact moment he died, a novel that takes the form of a reverberating hallucination that just keeps giving. Perhaps the novel/hallucination ends when Ballard himself is the ... http://suttree.com/2010/10/03/bliss/ "The next real literary 'rebels' in this country might well emerge as some weird bunch of anti-rebels, born oglers who dare somehow to back away from ironic watching, who have the childish gall actually to endorse and instantiate single-entendre principles.
