Tiny Vipers

And then this girl with a mysterious neck tattoo and some BRAND new New Balances and a bummer inner ear earring absolutely murders you on a Sunday night at a digital art gallery in the Tenderloin? Nu-uh.

Apparently there was no press. Maybe 22 people there. I wouldn't have known had it not been for Jefre and the things he knows.

Oh! how I wish I could send you back in time and put you there, person #23. Hmm. Well, at the very least you can get heavy with the KEXP vid of her doing Dreamer, the stand out track from 2009's Life on Earth.

Try to stay alive?

Saturday/Peakin'


Curated by the deep-minded/souled Root Strata boys, Jefre Cantu and Maxwell Croy, Saturday at Grace promises to deliver us from/to. Music made for vaulted ceilings. Spring in the city. Devotionally speaking, it's happening.

In addition to their record label, the blog genuinely takes care of needs.

I love you.

Crescent Fluorescent (Art Historical version)

Anne Wagner + T.J. Clark + Berkeley Hills + Yardsale =


What I'm saying is, two big art historians had a yardsale.
I now own their geometric pastel tablecloth from 1974.
Greil Marcus was there. So were his glasses.

K got a (skinny persons) dress once belonging to Anne's mother. Elegant. And skinny.

Yvonne Rainer




Hand Movie (1968)

"Rainer's first film, Hand Movie, was shot by fellow dancer William Davis when Rainer was confined to a hospital bed, recovering from major surgery and unable to dance."


May it all be possible.

Ida Ekblad



Follow the progression?

A slow knocking over of the notion that she's gotta knock over soul-dominated romantic heroics. I assume she's actually nuts, not faking it. The loop track of a naturalist. Rescues birds. Signs with her initials.

I haven't seen a denial that's so affirmative in forever. She believes in the past too much to forget it. But. What have I got lying around that I can use to destroy my life completely? Whole heart.
