Or fog. I think more about the photons criss-crossing and what must be their idea of direction. How do\u00a0beams affect each other, how far can reflection be taken, show how the loss of light appears, what is the shape of it. because it&#8217;s about the reflecting materials, not the light. \u00a0I think of sensitive light-reading devices on their way now, that see the inside of the body, amid innumerable improbabilities and coincidences, x-ray style, by reading the cosmic rays that\u00a0are presently and always passing through it.<\/p>\n<p>pre-sent-ing, pre-sense-ing, laying out the experience of the viewer-self. \u00a0The total surprise of scale. Of placement. Of what the thing might possibly\u00a0<em>be<\/em> in the building, buildings make scale agreements with objects and what happens, what is it to break those agreements?<\/p>\n<p>My studio is a Darwinian coup. Like magic I have called to my fingertips pieces of crystal and glass, and electricity, a new kind of <em>light<\/em>, never before seen in the eyes or memories or paintings of man, called them right into my hands, having taken maybe 20 footsteps per thousands of keystrokes. \u00a0As a creature, for a creaturely thing to do, look how powerful the individual is, in the <a title=\"collective\" href=\"http:\/\/godshampoo.com\/?page_id=3235\" target=\"_blank\">collective.<\/a> It&#8217;s an exponential relationship, and I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if it unfolds in the same patterns as light and reflection. The\u00a0other space, of depth away, the lights in the elevator mirrors blinking endlessly into the vanishing point.<\/p>\n<p>The new experiments are percolating, and the <a title=\"Mythologist\" href=\"http:\/\/godshampoo.com\/?page_id=3229\" target=\"_blank\">fortune<\/a> telling. \u00a0The social aspect emerges now. I practice the fortune way, directly to the individual.\u00a0not to make myself so easily misunderstood.\u00a0the perpetual outsider insider.<\/p>\n<p>I fell into a deep sleep and saw the sculpture that replaces the fabric sheeting. I might have to go to lightfair after all. \u00a0\u2018Clean up!,&#8217; Machine tells me, nearly channeling my old school crit partner, who set me on course more than once with insight, and new materials, and when necessary, wake-up-smell-coffee scoldings. She once shut my laptop for me, and another time she squashed my sculpture to prove it wouldn\u2019t hold up to a crowd. \u00a0There\u2019s ecstatic making, but not ecstatic administrative management.
