"If you say, I love you, then you have already fallen in love with language, which is already a form of break up and infidelity."

—Jean Baudrillard (1929-2007)

"You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you."

—Ray Bradbury (1920-2012)

"A quality is an actual presentation of lived relation. World-glue made visible. See it, be surprised, live it and like it (or not). But don't just emote it. Above all, don't take it personally."

—Brian Massumi (1956-   )

"Trying to define yourself is like biting your own teeth."

—Alan Watts (1915-1973)

******************************************************
I'm now the designer/web designer for a publication I've founded with two of my favoritest people. It's called KAPSULA, and we'll be publishing high-quality polemic art criticism on a bi-weekly basis, through an e-mail list serve. This July will be the launch of the first 'issue', for which I'm learning how to make interactive/Javascript-driven .pdfs.

The deadline is also fast approaching for our first official call.

You can get the deets on the website: http://kapsula.ca, or on the Facebook page.

I will be heading up the coordination bit for the launch party and an associated symposium for the release of Euphoria & Dystopia: The Banff New Media Institutes. This is essentially an archive as a book, detailing the proceedings of a decade's worth of talks, presentations and projects that happened at the Banff New Media Institute while it was under the direction of Sara Diamond. The book is co-edited by her and the renowned new media curator, Sarah Cook. The project extends through January. Stay tuned for documentation...
