I don't really like traditional summaries, clearly. lol Coming to the close of s3 is something alright. Joaquin Fernandez and I do the art talk, as per. We've got; art as expression of free will, play as an intentional practice, ease not equating legitimacy, and of course, the death of happily ever after. You know, for fun! So it goes!
We are remade when we create and again in witness, doors opening, and opening into endless rooms.
Cheers y'all!
From Joaquin:
In May of 2018, my friend Lantz Arroyo and the good people at Radix Media put together a book and they were kind enough to let me help them out. It was one of the highlights of my creative life.
AFTERMATH: Explorations of Loss & Grief (and here's the book at Thrift Books since it is out of print)
Mentions:
Carmen Maria Machado :Her Body and Other Parties
Gabriel García Márquez: Very Old Man with Enormous Wings

*I profit off nothing in this bizarre hubristic venture. It is a vehicle for expression, education, and artistic play (probably a little bit of a humiliation kink too if we're being honest here lol).
**Hey hey, btw, all those do gooders I link to? They have no idea who I am and have nothing to do with me (and I like it that way). I just think they're neat.
