8/31

dogs got me up at 2:30 — was very upset — ? what to do — despair — agitation — nervousness — is anything worth the effort — what is effort


another long letter to RK — that should be inserted into the notes — I don’t want to use the actual letters (or do i) — but use the ideas in the context of art writing —


ART (from thinking about RK things) — taking things out of context — finding things out of context — finding things that i have no idea what they are or where they came from — (tilted arc — stone sculpture in plattsburgh —)


TEXT / CONTEXT — doing the notes chronologically would have the advantage of putting photos etc in place — things like the gallery phase are scattered all over in the random arrangement —
MAKE CONTEXT PAGES — then move them into better positions as i get more sections done —
MAKE A GRID for photo pages —


i almost always end up losing the context of things —‘end up’ — the never ending process of decontexualizing - recontextualizing contextualizing —
sccrambling
rambling wandering meandering wondering


i need to walk the dogs today but i’m extremely tired — i could take the day off then do weds & thurs


ART — as a box of objects —
A SYSTEM OF OBJECTS

COMPLEXITY — i’m still thinking about a paper work for K — thinking of a larger meta-structure for it — scans - comments - larger works —
what do i want to sacrifice — to cut up
what is destruction —

BOOK FOR K — ? page numbers — pages should be rearrangeable — not fixed — the binder is loose — the meta book could note different arrangements — the way the work would change as i find or add new thhings —


COLLECTIONS — i have stones & shells all over — i can’t get them categorized & organized —

8/21-27
