Art in America p111 — Holzer on diagrams — note — a box
the need to better define my art
collages — projects — layers of image — difference between my ideas from Nat Geo and Mitru’s

Neo Geo Ernst
Cornell
Schwitters

image / text Burroughs
many ideas
need a catalog to catalog ideas — spend the rest of my life reworking old ideas

conceptual dead end

dead end
deaden
leaden
lead in to what
where


use photo copier to copy images etc and then overlay with lines as in my history collage — need to redo history collage — possibly take it off board and put it on paper with the resulting damage to the pages becoming part of the work

history — time

ideas on the surreal attitude (dada) — the idea that the strange overlay of image that we get can’t really be improved upon — glance through National Geo — art magazines — a popular mag — strangeness
let the mind isolate images and phrases — reality
