So I'm sure if anyone is reading this they have seen my piece in Moka Joka. I think the piece was successfulin the end. I had the idea for the piece before now but I had to slightly alter the idea to fit the parameters of the assignment. The piece is meant to shock less and have the reset of the sentence more easily and readily available to read. I plan on installing this piece again and I have gotten some good feed back for when that is done. I spent about two hours talking to Matt Corson-finnerty about the piece today that was quite fruitful. We understood what each other was saying but disagreed on a few points. He felt giving the word special attention was contrary to how I felt and should be dealt with differently and he felt that neon should not be a component. I think neon is necessary to show how the word is treated by everyone else, that the text around it (being in larger black if and when the piece is reproduced) are my words in an attempt to inform and diffuse the neon. I think the neon is an important attention grabber, removing it would make the piece too easily ignored.
Explosions in the Sky
I went to see my favorite band last Friday and it was a blast. I got on the guest list because I had connections with the band that have been extended further now that I went to the show. I danced to my bodies limits and beyond and for that I was rewarded with the guitarists pick from the show. Great night, it really cleared my head.
