SIGNIFICATOR

"Twist and shout!

Come on, come on, come on, baby, now.

Come on and work it on out." --The Beatles

"Just finish cleanin' up your room.

Let's see that dust fly with that broom.

Get all that garbage out of sight."

--The Coasters

"Lay, lady, lay." Bob Dylan

Cabot Koppers/Harlem Shake (3 of Cups Reversed): 3s a crowd (upright: it's a celebration). The appliance of Cabot Koppers is contained within its given appiphany: from virality in the service of well-being (Harlem Shake) to toxicity, its gesture towards the disaster.

Messy Room (8 of Pentacles Reversed): Perfectionism, lacking ambition or focus. If you only work, then you cannot work on keeping your room clean (blind spot; anxiety). Follow the telephone poles: all that work on industry keeps Cabot Koppers dreaming of itself picked up.

Bed (4 of Swords): Recuperation, relaxation rest. The production of pine tar has rendered Cabot Koppers tired, weak, unhealthy. This past of Cabot Koppers, clarified in its immediate challenge (telephone poles), is what calls forth its best outcome: recuperation.

Distant Past: From Where Did Cabot Koppers Come?

"If you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth."

"Swing Low, Sweet Chariot."

"The rhizome pertains to a map." D+G, A Thousand Plateaus, 21.

Chiropractor Louis (Temperance Reversed): Imbalance, excess, lack of long-term vision. The overflows of our desire, very much afforded by blind spots, threw Cabot Koppers into an imbalance. Long-term vision is necessary to restore Cabot Koppers, and so that we may continue becoming what we want to become.

The Rhizome (7 of Cups Reversed): Temptation, illusion, diversionary tactics: the concept of the rhizome perhaps promises too much. We can, in fact, trace the genealogy of Cabot Koppers in terms of knotted desire, even if we cannot see such. This is the immediate challenge: follow the telephone poles; do not get lost in the romances of rhizomatic metaphysics.

Helicopter from Jacob's Ladder (The Chariot): Control, will power, victory, assertion, determination. The chariot drops Jacob off into the macro of chaos; it also picks him up, saves him, returns him back into himself. The determination of the chariot is the determination of Cabot Koppers, which is the willful determination of our own collective well-being

External Influences: How Does Alachua County Want to Dance with Cabot Koppers?

Immediate Future: What Music Does Cabot Koppers Produce?

"Fire/I'll take you to burn/Fire/I'll take you to learn." --Arthur Brown

If tap water poured from a faucet in Alachua County, but nobody was around to drink it, would it make a sound?

Surveillance Camera (6 of Wands Reversed): Egotism, lack of confidence, fall from grace. We cannot see who is seeing us from the surveillance camera; Cabot Koppers sings, but we cannot hear it. Our sense of pitch is too high and too low.

The Incinerator from Jacob's Ladder (The Tower Reversed): Avoidance of disaster, fear of change. Jacob would not let go of his past; this is where the photos of his family burned. Follow the telephone balls to the disco ball: disco is dead. We do not want to dance like that.

Immediate Challenge: What Does Cabot Koppers Want to Teach the Alachua Community?

The telephone pole leads back to you, and you, and all of us

Spatial & Temporal

Telephone Poles (2 of Swords): Indecision, stalemate, blocked emotions. As the telephone receives and connects, it also blocks and stops (in re-cognition): the production of pine tar, dioxin, arsenic. Telephone poles lead us to Cabot Koppers, but we do not see it, cannot hear it. The (w)hole of the telephone pole leaves us indecisive. Also see: pepper.

JUSTICE

PRESENT: HOW IS CABOT KOPPERS?

"Once, if my memory

serves correct...."

Arthur Rimbaud (Queen of Wands): Full of life and exuberance, but a black cat sits at his feet. A poet of joy and excess, yet forever teetering on limit, darkness. Rimbaud once spent "A Season in Hell." He died young, abandoning poetry and becoming a merchant in North Africa. An infection in his leg slowly killed him as he did not tend to it. Cabot Koppers' present presents itself as being carried to its bed, hopefully not its death bed.
