But you know? I went to the MOMA three years ago... And I think is not the best! This weekend I found a little place near my house where you can eat ice cream and listen blues, at the same time you watch some work. Amazing uh?
Remember the "Fear, Dread & Anxiety" scene on "30 Something?" The dwarves? This brought it all back with icing.
Thx
... Crap.
Eventually it ALL boils down to advertising, doesn't it?

Posted by: Shayla at April 24, 2008 5:38 PMThanks Hugh, while it may sound a little Nialistic (not spelled right?), I feel like the cartoon boils it down to one thing: will you still do it if they don't care? Now, of course art isn't art if it doesn't resonate with someone else, but it's a good reality check: Am I working on this peice because I am driven by my sole to do it, or because I think it will make them up at the top like me? (this never works)
Thanks for the reminder.
Posted by: Jon Shuler at April 25, 2008 12:18 AMI'm pretty sure that what hangs in MOMA is advertising, too, just with no tangible product.
Posted by: Howard at April 25, 2008 1:29 AMI shut down the indie-rock record label and I'm just on the verge of shutting down the I Could Still Be A Rock Star Dream.
But it's not all bad, I have a lot more paid and free time now that my money-losing obsession has ended!

Posted by: parrotzmom at April 30, 2008 6:01 PMOuch. 29 years for me working for the advertising man. (sigh)
