What can be done to work against the socially conservative bias in art in chicago?

It is shocking to me that at this point in history we are still having to work against peoples's fear of the body. People's fear of sex. People's fear of anything wet and sticky.

 
The City night club in Portland Oregon was a startlingly interesting place to me during the time I was going there 88 - 93, and has become even more so in the time since. Underage queer clubs were rare then and are even rarer now.

The MCA and PS1 shows both went well. I have a cd of the MCA set, send me an email if you want one. I will put up the photos from PS1 soon.

We are back from Oregon, I will add some photos from the trip to the stack. It was exhausting and amazing. Contact with downtown Portland's homeless punks caused some sort of shift in me which I have yet to fully assimilate, at points in my life they defined cool. It will be interesting to figure out what has shifted, or to not figure out what has shifted.

"The author as we've known him for the last several centuries dies his final death, reborn as a perpetual collaborator. And while this may not satisfy the average freedom fighter's idea of utopia, to this reviewer it feels like the next best thing to heaven: a world in which there are no bad books, only rough drafts."

Sometimes the best solution to an overload of "things to do" is to just avoid everything for a day and have lots and lots of sex instead.
