I didnÕt like the
font of her website but thatÕs ok. Shes had a lot of
work and I donÕt feel like going through all of it cause im
a little lazy. Shes about 31, or 32 and I think sheÕs
French. French girls are hot! She lived or lives in mexico city during some
periods of the year. Francis alys, Santiago serria - I love u niggas. Lets hang out soon.
She makes smart art ephemeral like art. The kind thatÕs
usually called interdisciplinary or mixed media. Its
somewhat soft, but not too emotional soft. I donÕt know what I have
against the emotional and soft lately, the delicate. I canÕt even listen to
most indie music anymore. It gets me mad. It pisses
me that generations are following this. IÕm all about young money thugs coming
in the world, rapping their lungs out to claim there
fame. But anyways I live in both worlds, soft and hard, and I can appreciate
both and what sticks out in my head is the paper shredder project (although I
skipped many projects) Was good she got rid of her
diaryÕs. Good for here. I like. Reminds me of the British performance artist
that shredded all his life belongings in gallery. Such drastic measure kind of
touches and embarrasses me at same time – too desperate. But EmilyÕs was
the right scale, fits nice like a good pair of jeans
around a nice ass.

Hmmmm,
I think I have the wrong person. He seems out of place, a little too old and dorky
looking for this scene. I hope its not like an older
friend of Emily or something. OH fuck it. I be writing this the way I want to write it. I didnÕt like
bronze sculptures very much, they look to much like
art. IÕm also not the biggest fan of objects. I once said that the only
beautiful image I like are girls, everything else can be shit to me and perhaps
prefer it to be. I tried finding the potential real Richard hager
but could not find. If thatÕs his sculpture in the middle of his room, then
perhaps, he does not have a website as most sculptures are not that web
involved. Really. I notice this phenomenon. Sculptures
without websites. 250 bucks
I make u a clean website dude?

Michael G. Bauer is
the only artist i know and who invited me to
collaborate with him on this show. I know not to google
Michael Bauer
without the g, cause I get some German painter I have come across in the past, and once
thought, huh, I didnÕt know Michael was into painting, I always thought he did
more interesting things. Well he does pursuit more interesting. Gotta admire the guy for being a
collaborating hustler, organizing, bringing together, and to use his favorite
word ÔactivatingÕ shit. He has a softness to his
practice like some of the other artist in this show, some ephemeral quality but
in him I see the potential for things to pop, for concrete breakthroughs,
definitive. He may too understand and maybe he is a better man for being so. I
think art today needs to have a little facism in it. It need to say black and white. Its
turned to gray, focused to much on Ōalmost getting
thereĶ Ōim working towardsĶ. Maybe I demand too much
of people and ask them to live with the sense urgency I live with. Michael and
I have similar methodologies and pursuits but somewhere our approaches and
results deviate. He is a lover and IÕm a hater. He seeks social change and
cohesion. I want tension, antagonism, a terrorists at
heart. We are both functional, operational. He has principles. A route to take. IÕm not really sure I have any to follow or
any idea how I want the world to be. He invest into
things. I take out of things. He creates. I reduce. Both of us donÕt care for
irony much. I think irony is the disease of our culture. If we were political
parties he would be socialism and I would be fascism. Both feel natural for
each of us.

When I visit website
and see picture I think: cute. After going through her site I revisit first
page and think sexy. Shes about my
age 27,28. Her website is clean. As my patience online is limited
really, I donÕt pay too much attention to videos, I wonder who ever has time to
pay attention to my videos. (Alison check out my video Ōme and my girlfriendĶ
in my website, just google me. Fernando Sanchez. I also make good curry and rock the dancefloor in case needed) I like her photos. I like her
work. I like her use of people. I like the summer of love installation. Good looking young people in their underwear watching woody allen. Fuck yea. Its funny thinking about it just know. She wants to stage voyeurism, I want to stage
antagonism and tension, those moments u find yourself
in the middle of a fight. I was going to dismiss her from being part of the
Miranda july bandwagon but I
guess she appreciates her work – its in her links. Personally I donÕt
really liker mirandaÕs work.
Its too precious for me. Life is not precious to me. Its urgent, frantic and honest.

First thing I found
of the potential chris cummings was a myspace and youtube page of a musician/producer. Hmm maybe this is him. But music is not so good. Then I find page with him in
show with my friend Euan McDonald and strange powers
and oijia board. Not so much into supernatural
garbage but I do like the stupid drawings that resulted from them. I look up
his partner in crime Michael Decker. I cant find and
then I find Chinatown local high energy contructs and
see chrisÕs pizza and penis sculpture and I really
like the pizza. Another sculpture without website. Haha.
I knew it. I look at MichaelÕs work but im not much
of an artist or even a craftsman so I have no judgment of work. ItÕs one of
those things that look like art but donÕt give me anything. Maybe some hedge
fun manager in new Hampshire will buy and put in home.
I really donÕt understand how the artworld works.
Maybe I donÕt belong in this gameÉ..hmmm fuck that! Tupac just came on my playlist.
My ambition is a ridah.

Bam this nigga got a website. Oh shit muthafucker
went to ucsb, studied in college of creative studies.
I was there from 01-03, I took some classes in college
of creative studies, in literature. The art kids always scarred me. They looked
so white and strange. Like nutty and out of a movie. A sculpture with a
website, of course he would be 26 or younger. This our
muthafuking generation. 80Õs taken
over. I like his circular geometry shopping cart thing. . Huh, maybe I
steal and remake. Damn memories of Goleta and UCSB, where I first learned how
to hate. I didnÕt know what to do with it back then – all I knew is that
it motivated me to be something greater than the people around me. My neighbors
and I (and my girlfriend who was living with me) would have sex competitions.
We would hear them next door. Then we would get hot and fuck. Then they would
fuck again and they had a loud squaky bed. Then we
would wake up in the early morning fuck again. Ahh being 21 in some hormonal
bubble.

Oh this my friends mylinhÕs friend
she told me about him. Man im tired of this Miranda july knockoffs, garden state pussy syndrome. Common, Fuck the sky. I donÕt want ur pictures. Going on walks, free cookies, going on
sunsets, where does this nigga come from how does he
make time. He must have parents that he can rely at the end of the day in case
this art game doesnÕt work out at the end, somewhere between he age of 31 and
32. I donÕt have time for fucking sunsets. Fuck that. I live on some anxious
twitch, on a sense of urgency known to gangsta
rappers. I promised my parents I buy them a home I got no fucking time for sunsets, I have no luv for that
kind of art. White privileged bullshit. My shit be
young money razor fist vulture, vampire thugging.
David, IÕll
give u a project that will challenge both of us. Lets fight. Me
and you. Fist to fist. You can call it ŌI will fightĶ. 5Then we can go
on that walk you want to go on afterwards. IÕll even hold your fucking hand.
But we have to box with no gloves. I donÕt care u beat my ass, come to this dog
brain world of mine, challenge yourself. Ill send my pubs with rose pedals if u like that.
Email me to schedule

I first I thought
she was in the wac program at ucla,
cause I found a myspace page with her name attached
to it. Those wac girls have delicious bodies. But I think she is a dancer for sure. Came across several sitings of her name in dance choreographic websites. Came
across one page belonging to UC Riverside and the first thing I read is:
ŌBreaking the Archive: Hip Hop as Resistant Choreography Ō Oh my better be good
cause it sounds boring. ŌHip hop as bonereographyĶ Is
much more appealing I donÕt know why people try to be so smart in the world.
Academia is such a turn off now a days. Maybe it just
didnÕt work out for me, the being smart thing.
Ahh
she took part of Alan Kaprows 18 happening thing at
the moca. Im really curious to see her choregraphs,
since there are no videos I can of her work on youtube.

Another
artist without a site. Hmm. So I find Zach being praised for
his art direction in a review of the musicianÕs album, Johnny Walker. This must
be my guy doing some sidework to make some dough.
Searching and goolging and I cant find much but him
mentioned for
work he had in Co-Lab, some cool alternative art fair established
by artist Jon stahn and Marie kirkegaard,
sporting the last name of the god father of existentialist philosopher Soren. I come across one drawing that is hard to see, so I
dismiss and continue my search but to no avail. Man there are
too many artist in the world, just as there are too many cops, too many
lawyers, too many moms and too many everything. It gets me tired.

I wonder why IÕm
getting so many musicians searching for these group of
artist. So we have another pedagogical interdisciplinary-er.
The public parking lot project looks insanely complicated, and I cant or donÕt
want to keep up reading it, but I do like war like diagram. We should have terrorists art. It would be interesting to see what that
would be sans the bombs and gunsmoke. Came across
some photographs potentially of his artnet that
didnÕt interests me much. Soo many Michaels in this show.

Finally, I found
someoneÕs facebook. I know most of you have one so
donÕt try to be cool like that. I think she is married and happy and went to usc – not sure if any of those relate to each other
in any way. Its funny how most artist look the same in party pics, maybe in general people do the same silly faces and
poses. So jovial, these art people, gleaming some juvenile
innocence. I never got that or will perhaps. SheÕs a New Yorker planted
in southern cali who has
with Circus gallery and that whole circle of peeps. There should be a study of
art circles and there growth and habits. ThereÕve been
times I go to shows and see the work and think, some people just have too many
friends. Some support crapy art and say its good and
then others say have a show in my gallery or IÕll talk to so and so and put a
good word in. So boring this approach. It makes artist bad. Lazy. Artist should
have no friends maybe. No support from art world. The best artist
come from leftfield. I think. Anyways.
