p.s. Hey. ** Saturday ** David Ehrenstein, Hi. I'm not a Moz-Obsessive. Oh, wait, 'in here' probably meant the comments arena. Right, gotcha. ** Tosh Berman, Hi, Tosh. ** Keaton, I miss U-Haul. I have a Wii again too. Germany was fun, yeah. ** White tiger, Math! ** Thomas Moronic, Thank you again so very much for the fun-filled weekend, T-ster. ** Steevee, Hi. ** Sypha, Hooray! Everyone, here's Sypha: 'Today I released the 5th (and final) of the Sypha Nadon archival anthologies. At 2 discs and 28 tracks, it could be the most extravagant SN release yet. Anyway, it can be downloaded/listened to here. ** Misanthrope, Sad about the tape's lack of existence. But as long as there's imagination ... Weekend was good, thanks, buddy. I want to go to Suplex City. Wait, wait, no I don't. ** _Black_Acrylic, Hi, Ben. I saw that about The Orbit. Ugh. RIP. ** Cal Graves, No, no one had done that, and I am most grateful that you thought to. 'Weirdness is good. Weirdness is better.': That should be everything's catch phrase. My weekend was good. Work, work, work. Improvement, improvement. How was yours? Wait, it's time for the next weekend already. Weird. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious-ly, Dennis. ** Bill, At the risk of seeming retro, I think so too, from a purely aesthetic point of view. What Gass? What do you think of whatever it is? Halle treated me pretty good. Was SF similarly pretty good-directed? ** Monday ** Tosh Berman, Really? Oh, that's interesting. Yeah, he's great. ** David Ehrenstein, Hi, D. Is it? That's cool. A lot of competition out there. ** Thomas Moronic, Great, thanks. Really cogent Maruo consolidating there. Yay! Everyone, here's Thomas Moronic: 'By the way, my collaboration with Steven Purtill/Mancy is now viewable online at the pretty cool NewHive. If you fancy a look, Dennis, or anyone, it's here. ** Randomwater, Hey! Really good to see you, unorganized liquid! Yay! Re: you being into Maruo. How are you? What's up? ** Brendan, The man! The man whose name starts with a B! The man whose art starts with an A+! New paintings ... mm-ness meaning yum. Lots o' love. ** Jeffrey Coleman, Hi, Jeff. Wow, yeah, how and where the hell is Todd. Calling Todd Crimson. Check in and say hi, man. That's so strange about the weirdening robot verification thing. That new version kinds kind of really exciting. In theory. ** Kier, Kier! Oh, man, I can't believe you were still sick even on last Monday. Are you perfect again? What?! You didn't get into the art school?! That is completely unfathomable. That literally is insane. Really, that is completely bonkers and inexplicable of them. Their admittance committee must be both incredibly conservative and very, very, very stupid. Fuck. So, what now? Don't get too down about it. What about another school even out of Norway? Or an artist residency somewhere? Don't let that utter idiocy cause you to reflect upon yourself or your talent for one more second of time. How are you, now that it's Friday? Tell me, great maestro and dear friend. Vast love, Dennis. ** Keaton, Wow, you're really missing out. Everyone, Keaton greeted the Maruo post last Monday by doing a thing that is not unrelated on his blog, and, duh, it's awesome, and, duh, here it is. ** Goldshader, Hi, Goldshader! Nice to meet you. I haven't met you before, have I? Lovely thoughts and words. Hey, come back anytime, please. ** Armando, Hi. Oh, honestly, I was so busy and consumed with work I didn't even miss my normal self. I think that's a very, very good idea. I would watch it over and over, I'm completely sure. I'm good. The new flat has some issues, but I like it. No, Yury's living here too. Consider your hugs and love recycled and strengthened and returned. ** Bill, Hi. Oh, if you remember Un Certain Regard's jumbled, cramped magnificence, it's impossible to actually see anything there. But I would wager something going on a million dollars that they have some Maruo there because, if that place had an alley, Maruo would be the light at the end of it. ** Tuesday ** Scunnard, Hey, bud! Germany was a lot of work and quite productive. The move was relatively painless. Oh, shit, best humanly possible wishes to your baby niece and you. How is she doing now? This probably has no relevance or resonance, but when I've felt the way you described feeling, and, boy, have I, it always ends up being some really great, if contemporaneously confusing reset. ** David Ehrenstein, Truer words hath ne'er been spoke. ** Steevee, Hi. Cool. Everyone, here's'A Buddhist Pedestrian in Paris' aka Steevee's review of Tsai Ming-liang's JOURNEY TO THE WEST. ** Thomas Moronic, Yep, so true. ** _Black_Acrylic, Hi, Ben. Everyone, here's _Black_Acrylic: 'My friend Scott found this on YouTube, an amazing Vietnamese Italo cover that I can't stop watching.' ** Keaton, Your thoughts on Blanchot were strange and received mixed results in my heart. Wow, 'It Follows' is that bad? But then you just kind of trashed Blanchot, so I don't know whether to believe you or not, ha ha. ** Misanthrope, I sure did. And now I'm back. But not in black because even black organic clothes give me an allergy. ** Tuesday ** David Ehrenstein, Hi, D. Me too. Big time. And the loss of virtually all of the the Fox backlot is quite painful. ** James, Hi, James. The hotel was sort of neither here nor there. The only interesting thing about it was that it was combination hotel and senior citizen retirement home. ** Steevee, Morning, Steve. ** _Black_Acrylic, Hi, Ben. Well, I'm writing on the day after the election, and it looks to have been a very depressing result. It's so incredibly fucked that conservatives, who can pretty much be defined as people operating out of fear who are scared selfish by people who don't seem as afraid of everything as they are, will do whatever it takes to frighten people who aren't sufficiently scared into fearfully giving them power, and that it so often works. Or something. Sucks. ** Thomas Moronic, Hi. What I just said to Ben, I guess. ** Cal Graves, Hi, Cal. It didn't turn out too good. The theater piece grew and improved gradually, and, while there's a ton left to do, I think we feel pretty confident that it's going to rock. Halle's quiet and small and pleasant in small doses. Good place to work. ** Derek McCormack, Yay, Derek! Ha ha, I do want a part! Any part. Except maybe Gomer. Wait, no, even Gomer. I might make a really good Gomer, come to think of it. Or Gomer's cousin. Didn't he have a cousin? Interstellar love to you! ** Wednesday ** David Ehrenstein, That's kind of totally true, isn't it. ** Steevee, More of/by you! Excellent! Everyone, here's Steevee's interview with Bertrand Bonello, a normally very interesting film director, mostly about his new one 'Saint Laurent', which, and not that you asked, I personally thought was a really terrible film, but don't let that stop you because I could be wrong, even though I'm pretty sure I'm not, ha ha. I hope you feel much better more than pronto. ** Etc etc etc, Hi, Casey! The project is Germany is going quite well and excitingly, I think. Yeah, the best collaborations are long-term things, I think. The collaboration morphs and mutates because Gisele's pieces morph and mutate a lot, especially in the case of this new piece, which is really, really not like anything we've done before. Really excited for the Bookforum piece! And, of course, for your writings on Jeff's book! In text form from me? Mm, not soon, but I am about to get back into my dormant text novel and hopefully finish it. Talk soon, indeed, I hope. ** Thomas Moronic, Hi. Yeah, the election, ugh. First the Netanyahu thing, and now this. ** _Black_Acrylic, Hi, Ben. I hope people use it to rise fucking up in some very useful way. ** Keaton, Hi. I want a 'pouting boy' doll. I think a lot of Gisele's mannequins pout. Truman Capote? I don't understand, but I like the way that feels. ** Misanthrope, It was safe. Thanks, man. ** Okay. We are now caught up. Onwards. Uh, ... oh, I made another thing out of gifs. I think this might be the best gif thing I've made so far, but then that's not for me to say, is it, and it's weird of me to say that, isn't it, so never mind. Enjoy Friday. See you tomorrow.
