look at picture books for ideas
start work on a collections / art book

do a lot of photographs
stay aware of my notebooks and the art ideas
scan all sketch books
try to photo art — ? how to document the large b&w works

john cale — walking on locusts — i like — different types of listening
song oriented work (short tracks) vs long works

ASSEMBLAGES — difficult to admit i can’t make a simple frame for assemblages —

MEDIUM — reading and writing

BOOKS my previous liking of long novels —
the [dis]integration of the novel — starting with stein— what can /should be called a novel — non-fictional novels — roubaud
make a list
non fiction — Medium as a good system — reading bits and pieces — dedicated reading of some authors — aside to different authors on similar subjects —
like having a stack of different magazines — i’ve thought for a long time that most good writers are never published — that many bad writers are published —
besides ‘good’ / ‘bad’ — concepts like ‘interesting’ — what a writer thinks about something — art forum — not liking the later years — not liking neo-expressionism etc — liking formalism in a post formalist milieu —

different types of book — (maybe this is for blog four —)

writing — at first i didn’t like the lack of styling but constraints can be useful and i can use my own site for formatting —
wanting to write things more content oriented — such as write about collections —
