what i’ve been up to since i eased up on FB stuff.

i started practicing bass again and made some more doodles.

i even painted a bit.

broke out the camera and shot some photos at 400 W. Rich.

made some mail art and actually mailed it off.

in the process of making more to send.

i actually got up from my desk more often and ran errands and tidied up the house b/c well…..i didn’t have to post all of those thoughts on the social network. i just did the thoughts.

made a score for a new dance called Put Yrslf Out Where I Knew A Woman.  i edited The Quiet North’s composition together with “I Knew A Woman” by Theodore Roethke.

put some more efforts toward Stupid Cupid.

hung out with friends and went dancing….wish i had photos of that!

so nothing really earth shattering. just felt like i had more of me to myself.

over the next few weeks i’m going to see if i can post even less about the space and events but Stupid Cupid may call for some savvy strategizing about that b/c it needs publicity.

some incredible things are planned for that event. can’t wait to see it all come to fruition.

borrowing components of mindi rhoades creative process to make my Stupid Cupid dance. Layering. Repurposing. Found objects. Obscuring. Revealing. Appropriating. Circles. Hearts. Stars. Piling up. Letting it sit for a while. Piling more. Copying. Finding just the right words and sticking them on and in and around.

  1. love your soundscore.
    I’ve been holding off sharing STUPID CUPID besides announcing it in my class and inviting some friends because the artist list hasn’t been made public yet. but as soon as you think it’s okay for me to start posting, “I’M PERFORMING AT THIS! COME CUDDLE WITH ME!” I will.
    I just turned 27 this past week. which is not the same as 40. but age and time and temporality have been on my mind this week.
    I loved the mail art. my first thought was, “that would make a great tattoo!” and it would. and it is just indicative of the fact that I think I want another tattoo soon.
    miss you. hope to see you soon!

    • 27. *sigh*
      fond memories of 27.
      am starting to get really really excited for “cuddle” and stupid cupid.
      i’ve already lost steam on mail art. have 2 cards almost ready to go out right now just can’t finish them for some reason.
      one is just little ellipses filled with mardi gras colors.
      like flattened doubloons.

      we should have coffee and talk about tattoos and stuff.
      hope the quarter is going smoothly.
      i’ll be at QY this saturday!
