Tonight I listened to a radio interview with Keri Smith. The interview primarily focuses on Keri's book Wreck This Journal but also talks quite a bit about John Cage as well as Guy Debord and the Situationist movement. His famed book Memoires is almost impossible to find images of, let alone facsimiles of, but I hear tempting mentions in random places, like this radio post. I did a whole collage piece reacting against his book (which I actually love though I've only seen a few spreads) and in the end affirming it. Memoires is actually an anti-book with cut and paste text and even sandpaper covers that slowly destroy the neighboring books that might be shelved next to it. I've read Keri Smith's blog for over a year now, and it always inspires me.
It's finally starting to dawn on me that I will be done with undergrad in one week! I can't really imagine what it will be like and I still refer to my future in terms of semesters. But this will all change soon and I have a whole slew of things I look forward to:
- learning html/code
- making collages (without worrying about concept though I know I will always have ideas I want to express)
- time to read!!!!
- time.
- exploring new cities, taking trips
- seeing my boyfriend more
