I don't know if it helps but perhaps if you want to make art you should think about it the way you do the blog, i.e. make work that does not serve the interests of the enemies of the earth. Tall order, I know. And us just sitting here behind <I>their</I> computers, having a communication <I>mediated by them</I>, demonstrating unintentionally the facade of freedom ... well, how about making work that serves their interests <I>as little as possible</I>...?Keirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17380721582942127443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9918207.post-23706911694213503352007-05-15T20:37:00.000+02:002007-05-15T20:37:00.000+02:00No problem, I wouldn't be able to be very specific...No problem, I wouldn't be able to be very specific either -- but maybe that's why I haven't made very much art in the past year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9918207.post-32716893031652445792007-05-15T02:02:00.000+02:002007-05-15T02:02:00.000+02:00Hi Jason, thanks for stopping by.

I should start by saying that I'm uncomfortable with self-promotion, and do what little I do to try to survive and get some rent paid.<BR/><BR/>That website is still under construction, but I cannot guarantee that my works, once linked, will prove illuminating. I realize that my statement leaves me open to challenges of the sort you pose. So I apologize if this response seems like a cop out. It's not. Here's a paraphrase of something I first saw in a book by Derrick Jensen:<BR/><BR/><I>I'm pointing at the moon. Don't look at my finger. <A HREF="http://endgamethebook.org" REL="nofollow">Look at the moon.</A></I><BR/><BR/>I don't do self-portraits.Keirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17380721582942127443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9918207.post-48555012132425880082007-05-14T20:33:00.000+02:002007-05-14T20:33:00.000+02:00"What are sane and appropriate responses to insane...<I>"What are sane and appropriate responses to insanely destructive behavior?"</I><BR/><BR/>It's certainly a pressing question, but I was wondering if you could be more specific regarding what kind of answers you've come up with. Your statement leaves a lot open to the imagination (which I realize was probably your intention), but I couldn't get the links to work on your website and so was wondering if you could either (a) link to some of your work that attempts to respond to this challenge, or (b) describe your efforts more precisely in words. Sorry if this is repetitious for long-time readers; I only ask because I am similarly interested in such a question.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
