Metaphor Spit Bite


I saw this piece, Pendulum Spit Bite, by Terry Fox at SFMoMA last night. It is, I have read, about several things, such as the evolution of illness and wellness, the Chartres Cathedral, moving through a labyrinth. It is also very beautiful just as itself; the traces of acid dripped on paper. I also saw A Metaphor:Everything he made looks like a reflection.

Attempts


It is somewhat difficult to draw a feather.

But it is important to try.

Roland Barthes by Roland Barthes


'As a child, I was often and intensely bored. This evidently began very early, it has continued my whole life, in gusts (increasingly rare, it is true, thanks to work and to friends), and it has always been noticeable to others. A panic boredom, to the point of distress: like the kind I feel in panel discussions, lectures, parties among strangers, group amusements: wherever boredom can be seen. Might boredom be my form of hysteria?'

Whippoorwill

I'm not sure why people think they sound lonely. They don't sound so lonely to me.

Urban Excavation

I went to Urban Ore today. Maybe to look for a chair. Maybe for teaspoons. I ended up mostly just looking through a drawer of photographs. How do a person's photographs end up in a drawer at Urban Ore?

There were pictures of little kids.
A high school reunion.
Vacation.
The beach.
