How does breaking away from a system change a thing?
Does it change the system or are the effects negligible?
How does the thing's freedom alter its motives?
Are independence and freedom the same thing?
It is only by what we define as captivity that we define freedom, no?

Displacement
Just woke up in bed, all the lights in the house on, clothes on the bathroom floor, earrings placed neatly on the bathroom sink, not knowing where or when I was.

Currentwerk
my demarcations are expanding almost limitlessly (remember limits?)
but within those limits, contracting.
sort of coalescing while remaining a whole in their own parts.
again, I get to use the word ouroboric to describe the way my art is functioning.
(Does this mean I can't claim a stance?(how much does one need to be claimed?))
I know I've written this many times before, but how much/when/why is enough?
(which always makes me think of how soon is now?)'
Enough enough. (I dare you to speak this and not sound like an Ewok)

25 Things Everyone Should Know (A Preventative Survival Guide for Superior Healths)
Everyone seems to be noting facts about themselves. To better serve my fellow man, I'm listing facts to help them, seeing as no one gives a shit about the time I fell on my head off the jungle gym in elementary school.
25 Things Everyone Should Know (A Preventative Survival Guide for Superior Healths)
1. When in doubt, rub it out.
2.The key to woodland survival is to remember how delicious you are.
3.You can't give away something you don't have, say, bullets, for instance. If you have some, share!
4.Eating wild tomatoes isn't wrong, unless these tomatoes are children.
5.Keep in mind, without hmmph there would be no ehhh.
6.The degree to which you sweat when hiking is directly proportional to how fat your ass is. Trim it up!
7.An animal with 2 anuses is just that and no more, definitely no less. Don't be rude.
8.When being chased, do not run. Fly if possible.
9.To prevent flattening of the testicles, leap off of trees only under 20 ft (Two Stories) in height. The forest floor is not as forgiving as it may look.
10.Believe it or not, lotion can act as a lighting repellent. Hold a metal rod in the air during a storm to figure out which type works best for you!
11. Never rub someone the wrong way. Back Massages on the edges of cliffs are not advised.
12.Behind every goat is another goat...waiting to fuck up your day.
13.The key to urban survival is to remember how delicious others are.
14.The wolf is your friend. If your friend owes you money, steal their young as collateral.
15.Ration your clothing, especially undergarments. You never know when you'll need a thong-hammock.
16.The bigger the fire, the warmer you stay. Try putting embers in strategic orifices!
17.The bear is Mother Nature's Wal-Mart greeter. When entering their territory, they will be sure to make eye contact and give a pleasant hello. Return the favor!
18.When in the workplace, surround yourself with the spoils of the forest. Keeping carrion and scat in your cubicle let's your co-workers know who's the boss, in AND outside the workplace!
19.When trapped in a tiger pit, if you wait long enough, a tiger will come to your aid. That's why they're called tiger pits.
20.Never swing from vines that hang from trees. These are the trees' pubic hairs and not dissimilar from people and crabs (the venereal disease), the trees would be happier if you could stay out of their downtown area.
21.Avoid making hats out of fellow survivalists. "The Man" looks down on these and will confiscate them.
22.When hunting, always remember to bring a boombox that plays "Jungle Boogie" on a loop. You'd be surprised how much easier it is to kill an animal in mid-discodance.
23.Contrary to popular belief, feces and urine put out fires much more quickly than water or dirt. (Raccoons are the best toiletpaperanimal)
24.Always travel in groups. If a woodland situation goes awry, at least there's the possibility of an orgy.
25.Lastly, remember that relationships are give and take. Don't be surprised if an animal rapes you in your sleep. That just means they're giving, and you are taking. Maybe it's about time you gave something back, eh?
Hope these tips help you in your quest to remain alive!

Mutations
The notion of images as species is interesting.This allows us to remove value judgments from criticism and form new methods of classification. Would this method remove content analysis and if as image-makers if we are just vessels through which these images flow how important is it what we make? Maybe the creation of new “species” (at least looking back to the history of art) relies on making what hasn’t been made. But how the hell does one go about making an image that in its original form holds no immediate discourse with its predecessors? It seems to me like mutation is the answer. The creation of a new species of image through the information of a previous genus.

A Consuming Consumer’s Guide to Consuming Good Arts
Pieces of good art should be hung neatly on barren white walls or placed neatly on pristine white pedestals. Pieces of good art should also be something you step over on the way to see the good art on the walls and pedestals.
These good arts should be in nice, white, postmodern structures. These good arts should also be in warehouses and shopping malls.
The people that consume these good arts should have quite a bit of money. Those without, however, should also be consuming the good arts.
The clothes that these consuming consumers should wear to these postmodern structures are tuxedos and evening gowns appropriate for soirées. Baseball caps, tube tops, and Bermuda shorts are also acceptable.
These people that consume the good arts should drive to these structures in very nice automobiles. It is also acceptable to walk or sprint to these structures.
The homes that these good art consumers depart from should also have very nice arts inside of them. Good arts can also be placed on front lawns or on the wall over toilets.
When not consuming good arts at these postmodern structures or at home, these consumers should do their best to make sure there is good art in front of their places of employment to be viewed upon entering. It is also acceptable to have calendars or screensavers featuring good arts in a consuming consumer’s office.
When these consumers of good arts return from their places of work to their homes, they should talk and read about good arts. It is also acceptable to talk about how good arts relate to football, super models, and gameshows.
