Actually it's a very legitimate question Marc. seriously, I think.
Art-wise.

The poop is timed and dated just prior to the jpg, and is mostly a meal of
eggs. Therefore the poop was very smooth and like all egg tempera, dried
cleanly and quickly.

Notice there are virtually no smudges on the scanner. Only a tiny portion of
shit was left to be cleaned up.

The original calligraphic masterpiece is now safely drying in an open manila
folder and emits little or no smell. I am considering whether to use some
kind of fixative on the high-quality heavy-duty paper.

Oddly, I had assumed I'd be throwing a dirty stinky mess out of the house but
shit tempera, hey it works man–maybe.

I also have the cleaned and sterilized brush I used, it was NOT done with a
finger! I'll rhetoricate anyone who says different of denies the evidence.

Because shit stinks.

It wouild be great to see various visceral iamges other than poo - for =

Back to art.

When I was a chaver (USA undergrad) they told me a museum is like an onion
and the building counts. Robert Venturi's Allen Art building is for me the
apogee of postmodernism in its best, least morally equivocal lyricism.

I went to the Allen every day while a student. It's credited as one of the
first pomo museums ever, it's the Oberlin College museum. Thank god my
memories of that building are almost totally–how can I say it–good. Art
brings something out of people.

My idea of a museum is a big open white room, clean, quiet, with natural
light, flat floors, white walls, and an interesting menu of items.

It's why I like the SFMOMA, but, factually, the Allen is better architecture.
Better.

And there's a fuck-my-ass-and-call-me-a-bitch Turner of a blinding Venetian
sunscape–thank god there were brains and brushes before Getty (Gettyours).

Sometimes luck is an ally.

My stereo is saying I fought the law, by the Dead Kennedys.

I think the Pol Pot song is coming up.

Thanks for no virus wowm. I like it. My monitor is painted black (no not on
the ourside of the screen silly!) because of age; it has darkened almost to
text-only usability.

That said, I like this because

1. On command/fast production
2. Apparently without cloying agenda
3. It's a friendly gesture
4. The drops are vast innerscapes, effervescent, like in chess

Note: If you have never heard of or seen Bill Viola's "Every Raindrop Tells
a Story" you get extra value for interesting.
