I'm out of the fog, and I'm not going back in without a fight. I'm putting down the things I don't need to carry - things I've outgrown, things that never fit, things that aren't mine, things that anchor me in places where I don't want to linger - and I'm moving forward at speed. This is my season.

My new work friend seems to be in a mood today. (Faceless and yet still somehow manages to feel confrontational. 😬)

Digital painting of an oscar fish. It has lots of black fins and tail, a gray face with dark, round eye, and its body scales are in alternating stripes of black and orange similar to tiger stripes.

Someone was asking if they could print out this image for a sign to carry at a protest against anti-trans legislation and the answer to anyone with a similar question is a thousand times yes. Wave Furious Trans Raccoon at as many genital-obsessed clowns as you like, no charge 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
Drawing in white ink against a black background of an angry looking raccoon standing on its hind legs and snarling at the viewer with the words "fix your heart" spread between its upraised little raccoon hands. The words are in the blue, white, and pink colors of the trans flag.

Gustav Klimt, Beech Grove I, 1902, Oil on Canvas, 100 x 100 cm (Galerie Neue Meister, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden)
“Gustav Klimt, whose paintings of women are exemplary of the Secessionist Vienna of the turn of the 19th to the 20th century, came to landscape painting late in life. During his summer stays in Seewalchen am Attersee from 1898 onwards, he also painted, according to his own account, a “small beech forest (in sunshine) with a few conifers mixed in.” The artist constructed a viewfinder with a square cutout out of cardboard and held it in front of his eye so that the sky and horizon were almost completely excluded. The viewer's gaze finds no vanishing point in the balanced composition of “Beech Forest I.” A precisely captured stand of young trees—probably birches and aspens—stretches from the high horizon toward the viewer. Light falls on the foliage, which is rendered in the brushstrokes and dabs typical of the Impressionists. The paint is applied thinly, the tones are harmonized, and chiaroscuro contrasts are avoided. This gives the entire picture a delicate appearance. The mineral-like shimmering leaf litter, the mottled tree bark, and the playful sunspots become a comprehensive ornament. With his fir forest paintings from 1901, which already featured the parallel rhythm of the tree trunks as their theme, Klimt continued to create symbol-laden atmospheric landscapes typical of the turn of the century. In “Beech Forest I,” he is now so close to nature that the desire to stylize and experiment is subordinated to the magic of what he sees. (Author: Birgit Dalbajewa, 2018)” https://skd-online-collection.skd.museum/Details/Index/246365

Now that 'Fisher King' is in that weird, liminal, space between "composed" and "released", I found myself musing on how to know when an album, or indeed any work of art, is "finished".

How do You Know When an Album is Done?
Paul Valéry: A work is never completed, but merely abandoned. I disagree with above quote. I guess it depends on how you look at your art and how you balance the difference between process and prod…

Photograph of my partner R, wearing blue, heading into a tunnel constructed for a miniature railroad on the castle’s grounds. Wide-angle photograph looking up a big oak tree growing beside a cliff face. An old road climbs a wooded hill beside the cliff and tree.

Sometimes, when I’m really struggling to find anything in this current moment that isn’t about intentional cruelty and limitless greed, I think about the fact that there is music in the world right now that didn’t exist a week ago, or a day ago. Right now, even now, someone is making new music.

Tom Morello's Cornell tribute and my blurry tour of Belmont, including such Chicago landmarks as Devil Dawgs, indifferent pigeon, and sign that kind of looks like it says, "Ho."

I also had tacos from three different places, and they were all amazing. So a pretty good Thursday.

I'm not sure what this is, but it was in the middle of a bunch of measurement shots in my camera roll, and I find it soothing to look at, so now it exists here, too.
