4/26
done vacation — back to reality — a horrible morning — reality — there is not alternative reality — lynch — evil alternative reality — this reality is evil — evil is defined beyond god and ethics — ethics exists inside of evil not as an alternative
<web site diagrams>
toward the end of art — last rites — morbidity - decadence — <?> —
museum shops — commodities — how long will museums last — i feel some sort of movement away —
some realization that art is no longer relevant — that eyes should look somewhere else —
(elsewhere — i don’t like the word ‘nowadays’)
consider the museum experience — what is seen — the scene — my experiences — what i like —
i don’t like post-modernism but i like theories like crimp’s — the art is wrong —
the fact that there is art is wrong —
the fact that there is something — anything — is wrong —
nirvana would be the complete end of the universe and everything in it —
(a lot of notes on douglas crimp in the greyhound book — the book will mostly have to be read again — i don’t have a book database or a quote database except what was retrieved from filemaker —
can i go on with the book work — should i [even try]
to remodel the book — reconstruct
deconstruct
no continuity
no sentence / paragraph structure
no definitive arrangement
page or section based on structure
photo elements
illustrations & backgrounds —
artworks — examples + a section on visual art
take apart text
take apart art
take apart image
quotes & notes on books
the form is more important than the content
good content is everywhere — good form almost nowhere
i dislike most of the few attempts at form
