Interlocution

“Not queer like gay. queer like, escaping definition. Queer like some sort of fluidity and limitlessness at once. Queer like a freedom too strange to be conquered. Queer like the fearlessness to imagine what love can look like… and pursue it.” – Brandon Wint (via aprill-showers)

“Stop thinking about art works as objects, and start thinking about them as triggers for experiences. (Roy Ascott’s phrase.) That solves a lot of problems: we don’t have to argue whether photographs are art, or whether performances are art, or whether Carl Andre’s bricks or Andrew Serranos’s piss or Little Richard’s ‘Long Tall Sally’ are art, because we say, ‘Art is something that happens, a process, not a quality, and all sorts of things can make it happen.’ … [W]hat makes a work of art ‘good’ for you is not something that is already ‘inside’ it, but something that happens inside you — so the value of the work lies in the degree to which it can help you have the kind of experience that you call art.” –

Brian Eno (via jessiethatcher)

I could reblog/post this every day as a constant reminder.

Funemployment log #7

What do you do on the days you feel like you’ve made every wrong choice, that there is no where to go, and that the whole world is just passing you by while you chew your fingers, waiting for an email or a phone call inviting you back to your life?

I am so accustomed to transience that I am worried about having a place of my own in Boston. Yet now I feel like an imposition everywhere, even with friends who repeated assure me that this is not so.

This is the root if my pathologies - I think it would simply be easier and better for everyone if I just stopped taking up time, space, and resources.

But I am going to get on a mic in front of strangers tonight, have an interview tomorrow, and go pack up my life after that to move into Dan’s basement.
