Can you tell the story about the last time you put together a puzzle? Please include a unicorn.
the last time i FINISHED a puzzle wasn’t really even that noteworthy, but this seems like a fun question somewhat worthy of a good answer, so im going to tell a far better one. the one that my tumblr background picture came from.

(article from the new york times - found via utrech art’s twitter page)
there is a part in almost any art that theory and traditional practices have their place, but i tend to prefer the fringes of those boundaries. this was an interesting glance on how much the “art world” has its own language and ideas that im not even familiar with because i haven’t really paid...

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND
nxoeed:
Apparently I’m supposed to blog on a daily basis? I don’t understand. Is it not okay that I go a few days without really having much to say? And what is “Tumbularity”?
I don’t think I like Tumblr very much.
dearest james,
you dont have to blog every day. its going to be okay. i’ve been blogging too much, and just might be the only person other than GPO on your dashboard, so its...

figured it would be worthwhile to mention here that i’ve started a music blog, to promote synapse collapse & talk about music and instruments and other bands that i work with. or at least ill be doing the part about music i make whenever i get back to the places that making music happens.

whoa formspring
you have managed some pretty absurd questions, and i dont really understand where they are all coming from, or who has the time to ask all of them. there are also some interesting ones, and i liked those.
im not going to have time to just sit and answer all of them all the time, because they seem to keep coming. also, i dont think ill post them all here on my tumblr.

I’m trying to be a visual artist, but I want to be invisible too. Can I be an Invisual artist? Can I quote your answer? It is for a paper I’m writing.
i dont know that i am an especially quotable source on the matter of a slightly confusing question, but ill try and if you really want to quote me for a paper it might be a better interview via email than conversation via formspring....

In December 15 2004, there is photographic evidence that you were dancing La Macarena at a local Bar Mitzvah. Was that you or do you have an alibi to this most heinous crime?

Is it true you wrestled a swordfish in Maine and lost, which is the reason you hate fish?
no, but that’s such a good fake story. i don’t like eating fish because i have an reaction to it that is close to allergy level. it makes me want to spit it out of my mouth and walk away. im going to just start telling people that im allergic. it wont even be that much of a lie. maybe i WILL...

Do you consider platypuses sexy?
i was watching dogma last night, and the beginning statements talked about how god has a sense of humor, and that the platypus was a good example. have you watched that movie lately? its superb. great actors, funny and amazing story, and the voice of god. anyways, im not sure sexy is the right word. they are good, and fun, and sometimes in the right situation,...
