*** [Das ist nicht die Wahre Tastatur dieses Notebooks]

Das ist nicht die Wahre Tastatur dieses Notebooks,

in die ich ja gar nichts eingegeben habe,

und das ist nicht der Ton aus dem Speaker,

sondern bloß ein Geräusch, das

an seinem Gehäuse reflektiert. Die auf den schwarzen Bildschirm

geworfene Powerpoint-Präsentation

des Texts

Was man die Interiorität des Rechners nennen

könnte, enthält ein dunkles leben

Ein Daumen spielt mit dem Inputkabel; ——

am durchgetrennten Outputkabel erhält man die Modulation eines elektrischen signals, auf das hin

ein luftabwehrgeschütz wahllos das Feuer

eröffnet

Wieder und wieder

blickt man auf die Interiorität des Abakus,

wo am Ende der Rechnung rechts auf dem untersten Draht

drei Perlen

stehen, und auf dem zweituntersten Draht

eine Perle.

4?

Das kontinentale Leben ist ein Mittel,

die Lichtmodulation im abgerissenen Glasfaserkabel zu erzeugen,

die,

wie das Bild der Erde selbst,

reines Sonnenlicht ist, das in das Inn’re eines Zimmers fällt

Ich

hatte oben von Columbus-III und den flachen Gewässern im Lebensraum

der atlantischen Perlmuschel gelesen,

Wo ein Schiff mit dem Anker das Kabel durchtrennte, auf dem ich sitze

mit meinem Stift

und von dim ich Ihniin jiiitzt schriibiiii

miiiiin

liibiiiiiiii

*** [Este não é o Verdadeiro teclado deste notebook]

***

Este não é o Verdadeiro teclado deste notebook,

no qual não escrevi absolutamente nada

e este não é o som da coluna

mas sim um mero ruído que

se reflecte na sua caixa. A apresentação em Powerpoint,

enviada para o ecrã preto,

do texto

Aquilo a que se poderia chamar de interioridade do computador

é dotado duma vida escura

Um polegar brinca com o cabo de entrada; ——

o cabo de saída cortado recebe a modulação dum sinal eléctrico, na sequência do qual e de forma indiscriminada,

por um sistema de defesa anti-aérea o fogo é

aberto

Vezes repetidas

o olhar penetra a interioridade do ábaco,

encontrando no final do cálculo, no arame inferior

três pérolas

e dois arames a contar do fim

uma pérola.

4?

A vida continental é um meio

para gerar a modulação da luz no cabo de fibra óptica cortado que,

tal como a própria Terra,

é pura luz solar que entra no interior dum quarto

Eu

acima tinha lido do Colombo III e das águas calmas

onde vivem as ostras atlânticas,

Onde um navio cortou com a âncora o cabo, sobre o qual estou sentado

com o meu lápis

e do qual lhe estou a escrever

miuuu

queriuuuud

* 11.10.1977, Kassel, Germany
lives in: Berlin, Germany

Daniel Falb (b. 1977) is a poet and philosopher. He grew up in Kassel and has lived in Berlin since 1998, where he studied Philosophy and gained his doctorate with a thesis on the Idea of Collectivity. His first book of poems, die räumung dieser parks was published by kookbooks in 2003, with more following with the same publisher.

As well as poetry, Falb works on questions of geophilosophy and poetics. He was a collaborator in the collective poetics project Helm aus Phlox (with Ann Cotten, Hendrik Jackson, Steffen Popp and Monika Rinck, Merve 2011) and appears in the anthology Anthropozän. Dichtung in der Gegenwartsgeologie (Verlagshaus Berlin 2015).

In his challenging poems Falb casts a universal look at life, in which we are all part of a generational chain. Time and again they centre on questions of palaeontology and the climate, with the addition of the element of conservation and archiving. He also develops these themes in his “Svalbard Paem”, written in 2018, about the Spitzbergen seed bank and the sound archive lyrikline. It was published by kookbooks in 2019 along with three other longer poems in his latest collection Orchidee und Technofossil.
