The newspapers talk about everything except the daily. The papers bore me, they never tell me anything new. What’s really going on, what we’re experiencing, the rest, all the rest, where is it? How should we take account of, question, describe what happens every day and recurs every day: the banal, the quotidian, the obvious, the common, the ordinary, the infra-ordinary, the background noise, the habitual? Perhaps we need to look at things from a new angle and establish our own anthropology that will speak about us and draw from our own experiences, instead of continuously pillaging those of others. Not the exotic, but the endotic.
Georges Perec
