What derailed my evening

From artistĀ David Horvitz:

I very much enjoyed perusing his things for sale, each of which you may buy a small part, including:

If you give me $3,143 I will go as far away as possible. I live in New York. I will go to Perth, Australia the farthest distance from New York on Earth. I will mail you a photograph of me standing in New York. I will then mail you a photograph of me standing in Perth. I’m a little sad right now and I would kind of like to escape, so if you are thinking about getting one of these and not sure what you want, please take in consideration my emotions and pick this one.

and:

If you give me $437 I will go to Seattle and hang out with my best friend, Naseem. I will send you a photograph of us hanging out everyday. If we fight, and it is inevitable that we will, I will make a video of us apologizing to each other and explaining our position as to why we are angry at the other and how we will resolve the situation. I will post this on Youtube for you. Maybe we won’t fight! But we probably will.

PDX Writer Interview: Laura Moulton on Bing Lang Girls, pocket mustaches, and looking for the helper

PDX Writer Daily interviews Laura about theĀ Object Permanence project. Cool.

I’m going to head down tomorrow to get some pics, but in the meantime here’s one that PDX Writer took.

I wish I got the Object Mobile as a mobile writing studio after it was finished — it’s pretty…but I believe there’s a line.
