Virtual Surveillance

I have become obsessed with trying to find some interesting Atlanta web cams to watch. So far, I have become extremely disappointed. I think I will contact the Atlanta police department and request that they broadcast their surveillance live. Perhaps my interest in this is partially inherited from my father's cruise ship web cam obsession [must I follow in his footsteps so very literally?], and also that terrible show Las Vegas.

As the promise of warm weather awakens me from such wondrous dreams [last night= conscious harnessing imagination... this fits with my interest in hypnosis! beautiful colors and a day that I just keep inviting more sleep for the beauty of dreaming]

I am planning a more major piece at my neighborhood pool! These months of drawing and confusion are starting to come together now. My Mom and brother do not think that the neighborhood will be open to me doing an art project at the pool, but I believe them wrong.

ooh ooh secret fun plan for lang harm planted in my head today.

have really been wrestling with my plan for ronnog's memorial on friday.
typical want to read 3p's
but there is the aifp nakid people conflict i had with them, which i now regret
the love/support
expression/removal of loss=relieffromgrief
clonedeathroomexpression
overhead projector
or flash

sad for ronnog seaberg is dead. didn't get to say goodbye. hadn't been performing alongside them in a while.
remembering ronnog's advice that she issued to me via my mother: that a performance should be the same, whether it be for 1 person or 5000.
they were a special something. what will steve do now?

i will perform in honor of ronnog at her memorial @eyedrum on november 9.

november 19 - performance at language harm @eyedrum
also, the release of spaltung [100 objects]
[don't rub off the ink]

decided to include my vending machine pieces that were meant to go in the artomat
[which i never finished]. there is no way i can finish 100 drawings for spaltung. and, i'm feeling a bit possessive of them. each of the 50 other pieces will be differentish. little booklets. products of the drawing game.

Spaltung pressure received

but,lovingtheobjects
too much?

updated my artist's packet with some recent projects:

self realization

\reading about joseph beuys again = energy plan for the western man.\

I don't want to call myself an artist anymore. Why must I call myself anything? howboutwater or selfsustainingcycle
the truth reiterated: iamangryatyoufornotbeingme
my pa whisperly controls me on the sidelines until the action is ready
and then he pushes out his ego forcibly


In preparation for migrant worker, impending homelessness, and to
readjust my comfort level, I
had been trying to see how long I can stand myself without showering. 3 days is too much. Of
course, you can tolerate much more in the open air. Lately, I only go
out on the deck once a day to smoke a cigarette.

Surely there has to be a way I can clean myself off without money?

Tomorrow night, I'll be an audience member for andy ditzler's performance video. Have sort of gotten myself involved in curating artperforms. Who is working with "performance" that I would like to see? It would be nice to bring in some out of towners. Please email me if you are game.

Nat Slaughter invited me to participate in this project he is working on with Hope Hilton:

what can i do for the workers?

the possibility of interacting within the corporate environment [no matter how desperate i am for money] makes me want to puke. //today i subjected myself to pipelineforcequitpaidvacationcloseadeal eavesdropping//

Greetings artnewsians,

This is your dictator speaking. Spell-check is wreaking havoc on my handwriting!!!

During artperforms, the artarmy rounded up citizens of ARTimperialism. Those who did not comply with my orders were asked to leave. I had to [tearingly] kick out Stan Woodard. OCircleRoundSphere played beautiful music. The blades of death injured many citizens and they were marked with larger scaled red "sold" dots. Work was accomplished. We made individual speeches. There was an uprising... The citizens unknowingly endangered
themselves with the cylinder. They knocked over a wall.

We learned a lot about ARTimperialism.

After artperforms, we had boot camp. It was very fun, and we discovered the fun of lying in the roller, and being run over by the big cylinder. It was very dangerous, but no one was hurt. We made music and danced. I had a terrible hangover yesterday. Low energy did cancel the cylinder rolling that was scheduled for yesterday.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO JOIN THE ARTARMY?
