- For all the art talk and theory, an artist, regardless of their specific beliefs and cosmology, knows that when it goes well, the moment of making is a moment of grace, some kind of gift, a treasure and a privilege. This experience is as old as art is, although a lot of contemporary art talk belittles it. We, as artists, the kind that I mean, are not just content providers for... a luxury market, a network of institutions, a sophisticated discourse, and a social scene. We are, at our best, much more than that. What, then? I don't know, still. I just have a thread that I need to follow.

How to Solve Problems
Eric Waldemar provides his unique slant on how small behavior changes shift one’s awareness and also make it more plausible that Earth survives the century. Continue reading
Wish-granting Lamp Now Available!
The magic lamp grants three wishes, and the only catch is that you need to clarify your intentions. So, for the new year, think carefully, rub the screen and make your wishes. Then make your resolutions in order to help … Continue reading
A place to sleep, a place to pee.
When a dog sniffs the ground, it usually anticipates either sleep or urination. It’s not clear to me what dogs look for in a sleep spot, so I can only speculate. It may well be that the tang of their … Continue reading
Kickstand
Sometimes you just need something to lean on for a minute. My friend Greg Sadowy took the kickstand off his bike (as well as the brakes) for aerodynamic reasons, but I’m not willing to go that far for speed. Decades … Continue reading
Krazy Kat Desert Justice: Is Humor Art, and Art, Humor?
Maybe it’s the teapot mesa horizon – I’m not sure what else ties this monoprint (mine) to George Herriman’s Krazy Kat, one of the oddest and greatest comic strips in history. It’s what I thought of right away when it … Continue reading
