We get a lot of spam comments, and, at least currently, they all seem to be about nymphets – i don’t really know why.
This morning however I awoke to the most interesting spam comment for its sheer length and scattershot, stream-of-conciousness contents. “transderm immunosuppression still couldn was sauce lace panties hanging over sounds below” or “press release was huddled does not passed your waving her ohn down pcp air guns” spring to mind – of course it’s littered with links to god knows what.
But I’m posting the entire surreal text, Without the links, after the Jump »

The Third Mind is on view starting today at The Guggenheim
I attended the opening of this show last night, and it is truly spectacular, and there is a strong musical presence as well, from La Monte Young and Marian Zazeela’s Dream House to scores from the FLUXUS era, to a huge presence of works surrounding John Cage. The inimitable Margaret Leng Tan has done the audio tour and I’m very excited to go back and listen.
There are also a ton of performances and lectures set for the 3 months or so it is open.
Third Mind Performances and Lectures
There is so much amazing art on view during this exhibit that we were literally running at the end of the night to see a full room installation on the top floor that is not to be missed.

I’m sitting in my hotel room in South Denver after a very long day of Rehearsals and general driving insanity. I arrived in Colorado last night and it was snowing, quite intensely.
My rehearsals today with the Playground Ensemble went very well. I always run into the same problem though which is that my work has very subtle cues, and it just takes time. They’re a great ensemble, and it was a pleasure rehearsing with them. I just wish we had one more day. Although I suppose one always wishes one had one more day (wow, that was quite a oneful sentence)
Anyway. I’ve posted a bit of a photojournal after the jump. Images of the rehearsals were taken from a video on my iSight – of course it’s the first time I’m using it, and the sound didn’t record. Oh well,
Enjoy the pictures of snow, horrible donuts, and blurry rehearsals to the gallery »
