Today is/was my birthday. I usually don't tell anyone. The sentiment for my=
self is much like the artists who care more about their art then they do ab=
out themselves. I only ever wanted to create something that would transcen=
d myself, something that would exist in and of itself, striving for whateve=
r is timeless.

I woke up feeling like my life is becoming the opposite, more focused on th=
e now. A now that is entirely timed. Motivated by the 'story of the day'. W=
hat tops Blogdex? What Goggle news story takes up the largest green block? =
What can I think of that is original, something that will appeal to an onl=
ine culture?

Is my medium becoming narrowed? Are my ideas unoriginal and diluted? My col=
leagues are changing. I am growing older.

I always cherished the beauty of innocence in the romantic poets. I always =
feared their death with experience.

Am I dead? I seem to be concerned about me.

Today I was looking for online art. I found it in the artists.

I posted them.

Is it art?

Today is/was my birthday (I bought myself a Dead Milkmen t-shirt and a Rhiz=
ome membership). I usually don't tell anyone (especially about the Dead Mil=
kmen). The sentiment for myself is much like the artists who care more abou=
t their art then they do about themselves. I only ever wanted to create so=
mething that would transcend myself, something that would exist in and of i=
tself, striving for whatever is timeless.
