Barry,
would indeed be a pleasure to see you thursday night! No problem
missing the talk – I love Gary's videos & would have loved to catch
those – was in fact in one of them improvising on some lines by Saint
Augustine (if I remember well) in the company of Derrida, who was no
mean improviser - some time back in the early eighties.
hasta luego,
Pierre
