I liked this piece a lot Carlos. It has been great to watch the way all of the writing in here has developed and changed over the past year. Again, I picture graphic novel shorts.

carlos, i liked this post.

"they equate life with profitability"
of course. that is life for them. for me, one of the scariest things in life is to encounter someone whose world view/reality is dead opposite of mine, especially when that individual can't even conceive of other possibilities.

stacey's comment reminded me of a poster i saw eons ago:
in severe block lettering, white on a black background, the poster said:
ABANDON ALL ART NOW
in lower case letters, at the bottom:
await further instructions. major rethink in progress.

that guy is really called Guy Hands? hahaha. the problem with guys like Guy is that they equate life with profitability.

I thought this was pretty cool. So there.

btw, a nice little quote I found:

What we are saying to artists is: The current model is broken. Unless we find a new model, new music is dead.

Yeah, that little kid was me, traveling forward into the future from my own time in 1981, to see what the glorious future of 2008 held, and THAT’s what I got. Thanks a lot. That was pretty disgusting to my eight year old time-traveling self. Maybe that’s why I’m obsessed with eating ashes and puking on porches now.
