What do you guys get out of reading literature?

I read occultic stuff and a little bit of philosophy but I just cannot get into fiction about stories. I like to read about ideas and magick and real stuff but like I just can't get into fiction.

Maybe I should read some philosophy but man I just can't get into fiction garbage.

At worst, literature a pleasant diversion that gives me some mental exercise. At best, literatures teaches me how to be a human.

I feel like the stuff that I read makes me become a much better human overall. There is nothing wrong with being well read. I am well read just not well read in literary circles and I have always felt left out. I am well read in terms of different genres than others but extremely well read.

Like on /mu/ how hey all listen to the same music. I listen to extremely underground shit but it is nothing they listen too.

Grindcore, ultraviolent noisecore, mincecore, goregrind, pornogrind. Really edgy shit used to play in bands with it. The bands I listen too only have like 30 views on youtube.

Yeah I like weird music and weird stage antics. Mostly Hardcore violence.

https://vimeo.com/8287107

I saw this band and he throws a concret eblock into the crowd and generally high energy violent.

You should look up cock ESP. They are a noise band similar to the gerogeregege, hanatarashi etc. They do a bunch of fucked up stage antics like shitting on the floor and burning their dicks. Theres also a semi attractive girl in the band.
I just like intense music more than anything.

Well it's a very different reading experience even if you know it's fake.
As to why one would read fiction literature, it all boils down to entertainment. Different strokes for different folks, but that's the reason at the basic level. If fiction literature doesn't entertain you, then don't even bother.

Fiction has been surpassed by modern mediums, sure. When it comes to non-fiction and learning books are of course the king, but there are so many ways to experience stories nowadays that it's sometimes hard to read fiction (personally I've always had an admiration for comics as a perfect medium).

The only time comics are good are when they are in a different language.

There's no reason to study fiction unless its in a different language

Thanks for the rec; I'll do that. I enjoy pure noise, but noise with instruments, like The Gerogerigegege, is what I enjoy most. Something fast, angry, and incoherent.
>>
>>7508926
technically yes, but what are GG Alin and the gerogeregege but the legitimate continuation and the logical conclusion to the experiments of John Cage and Xennakis? If Adorno were alive today, he would probably be flinging shit at people during his extreme noise performances.

I mean ... he's an ass to compare comics to books (no real reason comics have failed other than the idiots who make/read them) but he's write to say that books have been surpassed. The things that literature did for people have long since been taken over by film and now digital media.

We live in a visual culture now nigga - accept that shit.

Good effort. You know, I never really appreciated Maki that much while watching the show. Nico Nii~ and Kotori-chan stood out to me the most. This (>>7506472) image of her looking embarrassed is the embodiment of moe. Were here eyebrows twitching during that scene, as well? These (>>7509760 >>7509771 >>7509772) images are also really nice.
