Book work continues. Justine Ives from NYC contacted me out of the blue to tell me that she was the designer. We’ve since been eming back and forth across the nation, and will chat via phone tomorrow. Looking forward to working with her and hope the distance won’t hinder production. I need to begin to format photos so that I can mail a DVD to her. I just need to format the file names, as Justine prefers to format the files herself. Peter Kuper’s first attempt to get his Oaxaca pics to me failed. Haven’t heard from him since telling him via em. Still hanging on for DS Black and Klutch too. No word from Logan about his photo info either! Got the Wall and Piece book in the mail, and Hasta La Victoria, Stencil (about Argentinian stencils) came in today. Good to see the latter book, and its English translations, but had no idea that it had a time line. It’s a bit different than my time line, but had no idea that there was one out there already. No idea is really original anymore is it? Went to hear Mona Caron speak at CounterPULSE last night and was glad to see Josh MacPhee and Claude Moller in the audience. Claude has been out of state for a while and Josh was in the City curating an upcoming show at Exit Gallery in NYC. It’s a show about political movement art, that is, art work that resulted from many radical, left, etc. movements. We had beers and burritos after Mona’s talk and caught up on each other’s projects. Worked on text today and started the Stencil Graffiti text. Things are flowing; just need to figure out how to eat and grocery shop, take a shower, etc. as well!
