Fateci Caso
Essays and observations by DAVIEY on identity, ambition, belief, art and the small absurdities through which a life reveals itself.
Fateci Caso means pay attention. Here it names a way of looking: at a conversation that felt slightly wrong, a social rule treated as inevitable, an ambition disguised as impracticality, or an ordinary event that begins asking inconvenient questions.
Notes From Base Reality is its essay imprint. The writing moves between lived experience, philosophy, humour, spiritual speculation and self-interrogation. Sheng, Kenyan references, irreverence and cosmic audacity belong to the voice. A personal experience is allowed to be contradictory; a narrator can recognise his own vanity while still defending the thing that matters to him.
The completed essays currently recovered include The Unbridled Wrath of a Fallen Titan; A Particularly Nice Form of Disdain; and Getting Fired, Miracles and the Case of the Invisible Tenant. The planned audio, video and short-form work expands this practice into performance, conversation and images. Literary and metaphysical statements are presented in the form in which they were written, with genre and context clear. The archive does not quietly turn a title from a conversation into a completed essay.
