Os Bill

Don't move on possible Commonist Soft Trade
until my pictures are all Done-Over!  Early '16 . . .
Editing is the engaging-exhilarating-grinding pits +++
I love it !     
A week later --->>> How in-my-pea-brain did i keep this picture that long? ... OUT !

Dan Skjæveland sent me the MoMA Atget today!
Vikings connect  Lucky me

Partially-surviving the G-ma/ma  must have been full-time stuff for the small n vulnerable

Perfect compare   the Nathan n Francis jr:  simplistic-head-style-specs:    

Nathan  You got the academic  memory-reading-research-articulation-writing +
My mom  sister  wife Nancy and Esther = that 'brain-style'

Duke got the 'what's happening here'   get me to a pole wit dogs  sailing  tennis   ?fatherhood?   I'm outta here . . .

He was very often rather nasty    all his insecurities & funk were visited on/in my head    Edie's also    

Respected Edie's pol works & survival tech n grit  & occasional loans!   'dad' = lost

I finally could not be more grateful  (close ones do suffer my neuroses)  ie w/o them/that  I could not love the:

T. Morrison  R. Banks  L Michaels   B. Pancake   H. Boll   Beckett   Godard+  Marx+   MalcolmX
Mozart+  VanGogh  Picasso  Pollock  Kieffer  Atget  Winogrand  me ... ++++++++

Moses & I  et al  are some kinda hybrids  small-western-academic-ingredients hands-on naive here-n-now dudes?

I very enjoy being here-n-now  self-sucked into avoiding my major picture editing thing   going on since June
when I funkily-Mac-button-pressed WRONG &  lost every fuckin' picture-file

to be salvaged over 3 mos of combo efforts with 'pros'   better than moi
 and now editing and tweaking from 3700  'down' to 800 'perfected' files

= website makeover   & flickr redo   

Like my 'childhood'   LUCKY FUCK UP  ?!  i needed this to kick lazy-pink-entitled-ass into real-edit-gear    
So Grateful

Be Well Joe   Bill

... from an 'orthodox' friend:
oh,

he doesn't want to offend "the americans" in their nice perpetual war economy

another thing

stephen colbert can take his leave it to beaver ugly american moral majority
and you know what

yeah, 9/11 was tragic

the same day 25,000 people died of starvation

and every other day

largely due to the policies created by people working in those trade towers

has nothing to do with first or last responders

so john stewart can blow it up his right wing

KEEP ON TRUCKIN'...   find the joys

Kitaj did a semester at UCBerkeley in'67-'68, 
i was doing a masters in painting 
looking at my paintings for a seminar he says, 
"These are the best pictures I've seen out here (west coast), 
but ya know Bill, the heroics of these were done by Kandinsky and Mondrian." 
It still took me 2 yrs to stop, get a camera, self-learn & go... 
love it! Bill.

Fool hacked computers at Berkeley High and posted racist crap.
Students walked-out to the Courtyard!
Thank You!!!
Os BHS ... us

I do a Flickr gallery.
Out of millions of Flickr pictures it's impossible to know and find all of what's out-there. 
It is often inspiring and humbling to find-see so many quite-fine-to-wonderful pictures! 
In a few places on the planet my pictures get valued by chance-luck ... 
But we miss most of the beauties out-there!
Os with luck-chance for all of us, Bill

I am believing there are so many images and pictures in our world,
it's making our creating and discerning real funky adventures.

Sad.  Sadness everywhere.
Os Bill.

1973 MOMA show  A.D. Coleman    Luckily after years I was just handed this review - knew it existed - but not how red bloody exciting. Doctor Coleman speaks truths to and for many: "... Now, if I were a photographer myself, I would be deeply Insulted by this show. I would be insulted that an institution so prestigious and powerful as the Museum of Modern Art would present, as photographically exemplary, a collection of random snapshots by someone who has not even established enough craft competence to make his disregard of craft standards a significant esthetic choice..."
