  2. THE COFFEE MILL
    the coffee mill shows up in various cubist paintings, along with the bottle, the newspaper and the pipe, all in browns and greys, reality

    with its vital edges, the sombre presence of reduced hallucinations. the coffee mill turned everything into a finely ground

    powder that jammed the most intimate gears, those of passion and grief, as well as the linear calligraphies of silhouettes and cobalt blue birds. next the coffee mill ground up representation,

    which became unintelligible and gave way to a music of spirals less given to spinning, to a memory less sharply defined, to contours

    less indebted to cezanne, to a life less still — yes, to a life that was perhaps ready for the disorder of another kind of life, another nature.

    the coffee mill became a barrel-organ. the world speeded up, people’s lives became less linear,and the crystalline waters turned cloudy.
