3/2
finished henderson yesterday — bartleby & co the day before
a few pages of cortázar — (autonaughts) but probably won’t read that —
a few pages of soft machine —
last with naked lunch not liking it as much as previous readings —
maybe i’m too old & need something narrative —
—
time to feed the pets & i don’t feel like moving
—
ART FORUM — i’m tossing out most of the articles — i remember liking a lot of the art philosophy
but i’m not interested now — i have too much material — i like the pictures i saved —
they compliment the internet — i used to look forward to reading glenn o’brien
but i’m not even bothering to see if the articles are still interesting (kept a few o’brien)
———
ART — the metal rack — picturing some use of wood & wood or metal panels —
? how to discard metal — i don’t like to drive to the scrap metal dump because i’m afraid of ruining a tire —
——
could the shelves be useful — i could spray paint them black —
looking at all the illustrations i want to make objects —
mind shifts — sometimes it’s philosophy sometimes it’s image —
i’m getting rid of a lot of the philosophical essays i enjoyed reading —
kept an article on m rosso i remember being interesting — now i’m not sure —
things i no longer like — conceptual things
most pop art
PROJECT — make a ‘book’ from fragments of art reviews — i kept quite a few of these from art forum —
——
ART NEWS — i didn’t underline reviews in the ones i’m looking at now (old ones 70s & early 80s) —
i’m not keeping the ones without pictures although there may be a lot of useful info i’m passing up
——
from the back of a magazine page
(artist <?>) les elements de la nature
“l’air” “l’eau” “la terre” “la feu”

the shapes of cut up olives on my plate — chillida
