The blog is so, so YOU. I'm already a regular, go to it right after Marie's mailbox. I KNOW you have more fans. Hope it catches on. Just felt like I had to say something.

Oh yes, you're right, I can see a few similarities between Diane and Rauschenberg, now that you mention it.  The erasing of DeKooning work was wild.  I've got that DVD "Painters Painting."  Rauschenberg gives a great little off-the-cuff speech from atop a studio ladder while being interviewed.  Just looked 3 times through the notebook it should be in, and cannot find it, dammit. :--)  Maybe next year.

Nancy, don't get me wrong - Rauschenberg is a personal fav. Once I compared DK's work to RR's. After all, RR went to Black Mt. College ;) Charles Olson fished him out of the pond when he (RR) tried to commit suicide - great favor to us all. Also liked when RR went to DeKooning's studio and started erasing WDKs work. I always have an angle on it ;)

Thom, the article was fantastic the "Moral beauty of debris" is a wonderful description. Love your trashbook Erni, it is ironic that you have the trash so meticulously ordered and displayed--organized chaos? I've told Ernie this, but my son says he likes Erni's trashpo because it's 'clean' garbage. He's not a lover of grunge like I am.  I have decided to start saving the handrwritten letters I find to maybe put together one day. I'm not sure how interesting a book of grocery lists would be. I had posted one of the found letters in the asemic group while back. I thought it qualified as asemic because of being written in urban/slang, but I don't think it is now. I love the mention in the article about the trashpo being an homage to the streets and not the art world. I could get a grant from the city if I could come up with some really good concept. need you all to bring all your trash here and dump it in the town square.

There is an unending source for trashpo art materials here ;-)

Erni's trash book is full of delicious "σκουπίδια"! Who is the lucky one who gets to eat all that choco? Mmmmmm good Nirwana!

Notebook display and organization -- brilliant!  Committee is convening tomorrow morning to discuss the pros and cons.  Looks like mostly pros to me, though the neatness could be a problem.
