9/27
some notes on paper recently — more mess — thinking and thinking but what is getting done
a beautiful eclipse last night
everything portends something but never believe anyone who says s/he can tell you what —
the signs seem to be positive — two eclipses and a comet this year
try to make the best of things
ART
having a hard time deciding what to do with Kardex files — they make nice object drawers
but they might be just what I need for some sort of physical writing thing
fragments and things — but I would have to fit things to the cards
so I don’t know how appropriate it might be — but probably I should give it a try —
possibly use printer labels or something to make stick on writings
fragments etc
most of the notes that I’ve done recently are quotes from Burroughs —
I went through and erased most of the underlining from the books —
amazing how different things will be noted at different times —
so many beautiful lines and perceptions — should do some critical work
was dog made in human image or vice versa — all this alpha shit etc seems to be too managerial —
child substitutes
COLLECTIONS
work on hallway display which I’ve put off for a long time —
there are still pieces of wood from the last display —
put a large piece of metal found last week at the railroad tracks on the floor —
need to get some ball bearings etc
started sorting through some newspaper cuttings — a picture a day wall display or something — make some verbal cuttings from the captions or surrounding text — need to move the TN painting so I can put up some sort of cut up board
