That's a good idea, hopefully they's still be there when I go back to work Thursday. I doubt it though.

Yeah, it was composed. Bad scan (intentionally) of a China Wok Menu, then converted to a wav and then I just made the whole thing look nicer in Photoshop.
Thanks a lot for the fave.

saw your page through alchemism's post in the forum. i hoenstly do not understand the drive behind your work... this probably won't happen, but would an explanation on what your work is about be possible?

hmm interesting - actually, it's about the body, finding that there is nothing permanent about it, there is no high-mighty center of control, everything is subject to change - and while the body seems to hinder some insatiable "inner hunger", it is impossible to locate and assuage that hunger, as one's body only unfolds more flesh, more biology - it yields no buffet for the soul - i've been writing about body image and dealing with the body lately, i don't know if i'll keep this up or go elsewhere

If your looking for a landscape, put in some kind of horizon and break down that wall. The meat seems like a mountain, but inside a room. This causes alot of uncomfortable feeling in the piece, but powerfully so.
Those lines summed up what I am trying to convey.
The floor you propose is actually a table, but can be seen as either. The walls do not intersect the table, but are (from my view) about 20 feet behind the table. (In pictorial space, that is.) There are questions about space that I have been working on continuously, and your comment and critique was well thought, and interesting. It, to me, signifies I have succeeded. Thanks my friend, hope all is well.

Probably because it's red. People like big gobs of red but don't know why. Someone told me that once.

to choose between poetry and prose? oh meh gaad.
well, usually i would do the cheap "well, what do YOU think?" but i have a less cheap (though still somewhat cheap) answer:
poetry is prose and prose is poetry! if i chose one, i'd also be takin the other one with me-- since the distinction between these two labels is so faint. like askin me, if i were a guy, to choose between tits or ass-- and i'd say, 'why, baby, eez all the same stuff-- flesh! mmm!'
that answer prrrrobably didn't satisfy you, i know, but i'm workin on it...

thank you sir for the comment oin Seer II. While I do actually use palette knives often (I have 5 differnt ones) the texture effects on that pice are actually done with brushes, rollers and paint straight from the tube.

That's awesome about that video.
I just saw that exact one last week.
He talked to one guy in a room about his ship experience.
And another today with him in it.
Did you know Serra doesn't go ANYWHERE without a sketchbook?

Good idea.

in real life, i mostly work with mixed media on paper, sometimes canvas, and i usually work quite large 6x10 feet or more. so working on a tiny screen is kind of strange. i started making computer pictures by accident really. i don't have a scanner or camera right now, so i just kind of started playing with machine art for the hell of it. but then i started seeing a potential in it for doing something not totally different from my real work, but maybe pressing a new medium to do things i can't do with real materials.
the idea of computer art is really interesting, in every way. one aspect is the showing of/selling of. you can't sell a machine picture for six thousand dollars, it's just bits of information. i suppose you could sell prints, but still there's something weird about that. taking it out of the machine into the real world seems to change the picture. there's something about it remaining as this little bit of data that gets called on and reinterpreted by other peoples computers that interests me. this free thing, that you could disseminate in ways you couldn't through galleries. i'm still struggling with this idea. i suppose if i were able to one day show computer pictures in a gallery, on say flat screens, in some kind of installation, then i would. i'm content with it remaining an illusory binary thing right now though.

thank you for commenting forrest.
really fascinating drawings, i've made some similar pictures in book works, i wish i had a scanner so i could show them to you. i'm a huge fan of Cy Twombly, you must be too, after encountering his work nothing was ever the same for me.
oh hey, i see you've found ~locussolus already. you might want to take a look at some of the drawings that ~bodyhater has up too.
i'm adding you to my watch, i'll be back to comment after more coffee. lots more, i've become dependant.

and i am duly impressed by your ability to become kandinksy, creepingly on the page
use color in whatever ways it wants to be used, it seems to be working so far - very interested in yr forms
caution : while i am impressed by the abstract work, remember that the fundamental issue is not the coolness of anything but the expressive power of forms, tension v. harmony - too much will choke the expressive power of the space - too little will leave us without response

your work is unbelieveable. truely ---> you are one of the best deviants i have seen so far. i want to fav all of your sketches. minimalist. i want to say fluxus because i am swept into this feeling of movement...
really. amazing.

thanks for all the comments and your kind words. im really liking these minimal abstractions of youve done, will be interesting to see how color will change their tone. ill be back to take a closer look at them soon.
thanks again.

it's great to have you back and i am so very much liking this new art of yours - let's see - in the past months, i've stepped back majorly from my "abstract poet" leanings, as i don't think i was in it for the right reasons - still interested in figurative narrative, though - getting into more confessional poetry while remaining leery of it - completely dedicated to writing difficult poems and occasionally producing difficult art
