THanks Charles, for telling us about the article again.

I had missed it the first time.

Here's the link again (From Randy Ross), for those who would like to read 
the fascinating 13 page article, in PDF format.

By the way, Randy was the first one to bring up the Cheap Art manifesto in 
this conversation.
I just mentionned I also had it on my wall.

My favorite part so far, and I'm not even halfway through reading it, is: 
"making art that rehearses the future we wish to help into being".


The text so far is sending shivers down my spine, and it's not just because 
the appartement is still chilly while it's heating up as I turned on the 
heaters for the first time of the season.

It's making me re-evaluate my ways of looking at what I'm doing, and how I 
see my existence and myt choices. I'm very intellectual and technical in my 
approaches, and I admit it's much more reassuring to think about the world 
in terms of scientific methods and proven techniques. And yet, i'm very 
chaotic and sensisive, which you can guess causes a lot of confusion in me 
and my environment!
