Just when things seem the bleakest














Ken Butler Driving Simulator
one of the last pictures with my beloved camera. I feel like i lost my vision without it.
After 3 years of daily use and multiple drops at Diva Miami my Canon g5 camera finally crapped
out. This happened after boarding my Carnival Cruise to Nova Scotia hence no pictures. This is
Walt Disney on water. The food was good the art sucked and they pushed it with multiple auctions. Featured Picasso prints, Peter Max, and lots of other schlock. I mean this work will make you puke. I looked on their website but found no mention so maybe it was a nightmare.

I have a new camera ordered so with god speed we will have original content online soon.
I noticed Tom Moody is attending a sleepover computer lover night on this friday at Eyebeam
open to general public 8-10. http://www.tommoody.us/archives/2007/08/21/the-great-internet-sleepover/
This reminds me of a project called Bedbugs at Snorewalls a FourWalls project with Mike Ballou that was part of the artMoving parasitic trilogy and truck shows in the late 90's. Over 130 artists and writers were involved in this sleepover. Readings continued all night long.

look in the archive under truck shows for picture.

Also, to see recent review of Marcin Ramocki's paper on DYI 'The Militant Embrace of Technology'

Artist Suicides

With the recent suicides in the artworld (Theresa Duncan and Jeremy Blake) http://newsgrist.typepad.com/underbelly/2007/07/tragedy-theresa.html
it reminds me of two Williamsburg artists who I knew
and miss. Paul Dickerson who I rented an art studio from and was planning to include in a truck show. http://www.pauldickerson.org/
Mark Lombardi who made some of the most political work, and has influenced many. For any deep thinking and sensitive artist in this dark world it with the loss of the significant other, life would lose meaning.

Northern European States send troops to Darfur




http://english.people.com.cn/90001/90777/6242756.html
As Americans enjoy their summer vacations our President included and worry about the stock market, genocide continues in Darfur. I find it embarrassing that we are not helping out when we have wasted so much money in Iraq. China has been selling arms to Sudan and is it's biggest investor. China is also backing the enormous debt that the United States has run up.
Something very not good is happening.

Summer in Brooklyn John Giglio/Tom Moody







I had a bad flood in my studio this morning will spare pictures.

John Giglio sent me a picture of the folding doors he is making for the new project space.

Tom Moody put a short quicktime of the performance he did during his one-person at artMovingProjects last year up on his new site.
