I'll have to turn off internet at some point, after Brian's show, to make sure I can access stuff in case I'm cut off (now's the time to do it, not when I'm actually cut off)

On my end I've designed a cool little lung graphic with a QR code and printed a bunch of stickers that I and friends have been sticking up in various locations across the continent.
And Miranda, she's doing great. Obviously annoyed with all the drugs she has to take, and she's on an oxygen tank, but she's feeling really loved right now.
Sorry for the long message but I think that's the full news.

The one time I did make it to Paris - & so actually see Works in person - I did experience an adjustment in my feelings about Modernism. The Centre Georges-Pomidou left me a bit underwhelmed. Seeing Works there face-to-face seemed not too different than seeing them in books. Aha. Once one has the Idea - you've got it. But the Musée d'Orsay of Impressionism left me feeling - these guys were really about Painting - & seen gthem in books was not the full experience.
Well it's not a new idea that we've been in a PostModern era for some time.
We're PostPostPostMod maybe by now...
Personally, I think being better informed about Artists' - or anyone's - biographies is all for the good. Why not know the truth & the facts ? But then the overall question of what is the relation of Art, Artists - & Morality & Ethics ? I'm sort of not inclined to ask that Artists should by Role Models. Yet one doesn't want to support harmful behaviors either.
Representation Matters. No pun intended...

-try & find see/hear Louise Bourgeois documentary from awhile ago. As well as that new Anselm. You will undoubtedly appreciate.
David WSW:
I agree. Mores and moral guardrails are shifting all the time, and now they are shifting much more rapidly.
I try to hold onto my long-held beliefs and mores regarding being a good person but in living in this present world, I have to judge my past more harshly than I feel comfortable doing. But I was a jerk, and I can accept that now and try to be better.
It’s hard for people in general to judge their previous selves harshly and to adjust to the here and now.
My fear is that horrible and abusive behavior and attitudes become the new norm. I see that happening.

but I'll say that what others do shouldn't be such an issue. When we let it get one, politicians seize it and it gets big. But then it's not about what others do then, it's about who are the "others". Very different vibe

Orenthal. New of the weird’s chuck shepherd used as euphemism.
Newt- fuck
Helms- shit
Clinton- penis
Dworkin- vagina
Orenthal- asshole
Conceived in 90s. Example: “Oh man, I came home helms-faced last night!”
