2/11
yesterday the computers were down all day — i had a good day thinking about things to do
today my insides are upset and i don’t want to do anything —
which is better - optimism or pessimism — it seems i have to be optimistic to do things and i’m basically not optimistic — everything will lead to nothing —
ART is a problem not a solution — art provides no answers just questions
for me the big question is ‘why bother’
START OVER [again] every day — soon there will be no more days — the end of me alone or the end of the world [as we know it]
i need a theory — a base — a peg to hang it on — (hand it all )
2/14
back to work on notebooks — wasting time — the notes are probably the best way to do that
but i’m still thinking of assemblages
something to do with the objects
i was just thinking of embedding the small objects into resin or paint or something — a thin layer that should be self supporting — visible from either side
(art ideas from 1/90 notes)
i’ve been listening to therion over and over —
cut up text
cut out words
scramble the material
1/8/90
a stack of pieces made by placing a sheet of glass under plexiglas in a frame and then breaking the glass by hitting the plexiglas
2/15
working on notes and wearing out already —
art text etc — some maybe revive the encyclopedia idea
what can i do for Medium or some such ‘platform’
