Phil and JF use a word from the Twin Peaks mythos, "garmonbozia," to try to understand what it was that the detonation of atomic bomb brought into the world. We use the fictional world of Twin Peaks as a map to the (so-called) real world and take Philip K. Dick, Krzysztof Penderecki, Norman Mailer, William S. Burroughs, Theodor Adorno, and H.P. Lovecraft as our landmarks.Warning: some spoilers of Twin Peaks season 3.Works Cited or Discussed:Phil Ford, "The Cold War Never Ended", Dial M for Musicology (1) (https://dialmformusicology.com/2014/12/02/the-cold-war-never-ended-i/) (2) (https://dialmformusicology.com/2014/12/03/the-cold-war-never-ended-ii/) (3) (https://dialmformusicology.com/2014/12/04/the-cold-war-never-ended-iii/) (4) (https://dialmformusicology.com/2015/02/17/the-cold-war-never-ended-iv/) Twin Peaks: The Return — Official Site (http://www.sho.com/twin-peaks) Philip K.
