9/30

month ends with a beautiful day —
feeling of doing something but i haven’t done anything — looking at some photo books — need to list some projects & start working systematically —
third mind — photoshop book — writing and difference

hungry with a headache — a long work week not half finished —

——
should make some grid structure to write in — filters etc —

graph backgrounds — textures

displacements — all the things that computers allow one to do with text — slide columns etc —
——
pick subjects or something & scan papers — possibly set aside 1/2 hour a day for free floating scans —
——
a set of notes for this purpose —
possibly a bound book?
no — the idea of some sort of set up pages — with column lines or something — possibly something to make a 2 page spread in ring binders —

“the third mind is perpetually rebeginning …”

some numbering of passages with variations etc —
redoing the lord vanity text etc —
winding my notes into some infinite (spiral - convolution — whatever)
