Machine Project
Medieval enthusiasts
modeled in
hyperbolic crochet
invite me to attend
an evening of
experimental heat
Tubes connect a
giant hamster
to a lawn chair
up in space
A bunch of dads
have this
fantasy
somewhere in my box
And it either
heals or
casts you
from the room

]]>At first I thought this was really terrible, but I shortly realized that this was a great opportunity to fix a major problem, which is the gallery is really to small to hold all the people who come to events, and the back office is much larger than it needs to be. And since the office is trashed anyway, what better time to move the partion wall back 10 feet to make the gallery a whole bunch bigger. Yay!
In another lucky coincidence, my friend Mark Dagget just made a new website for fund raising campaigns called Pledgie, so I went ahead and made a campaign to fund our repair and renovation project. Read more about my plan to renovate and repair Machine and see some photos of the carnage.
Should this all seem terribly uninteresting I can also offer you this insane video sent in by Ryan of a rabbit repeatedly attacking a snake.
]]>Poets Anthony McCann, Joshua Beckman and Emily Dickinson collaborated on a poem just for the occasion.
Uniforms of Snow
The barest chance
leaked through the trees--
a tooth upon our peace.
The wind began to knead the grass.
Another house I burned.
Adventure most onto itself
the soul condemned to hound
and cease to recollect
the chaotic and the good.
I wear my wings--I wear my belt--
a glee posesseth me.
The hours slide by fast and just
through realms and nether realms.
]]>The first is from Xtra magazine by Ken D. Allan, mostly regarding the Machine Project shows at Pomona.
The second is from an interview I did with Joshua Bearman about art and video games in the Believer. Includes a small illustration of my head done by Tony Millionaire. I'd like to call Josh and tell him how much I like the interview but he's in China trying to find a panda to cuddle.
