A short excerpt from Peter Dickinson’s interview...
PD: You took part in the happening at Black Mountain College in 1952. What was it like?
MC: I don’t know in detail what the others did. There were about five or six of us—Bob Rauschenberg, John, David Tudor, myself, I think M. C. Richards and maybe another person. I’m sure John has described this, but we each simply did what we did. That is, I danced around through the public, which sat in the center with aisles between. It was a kind of agreed-upon length of time during which these things would take place. There was no connection other than what anybody looking at this could make. All these things were separate, and everybody was sitting facing a different way so that they would see or hear something in a different way. It wasn’t all fixed so that everybody was to look at it one way. At the end of it they brought out coffee or something! [laughs]
PD: Did it feel like something that would have reverberations right through the 1960s?
MC: No. And it didn’t have a name. It was just something we did. Later they called them happenings. It was an idea about theater that John had — that anything could be theater. It can, depending on how you act or think about it. It doesn’t have to have a reference, a meaning, or a connection. It can simply take place.
PD: John’s ideas open up the skies, don’t they?
MC: Yes, a large mind open to so many kinds of things. His reactions to things have often been so amazing to me.
Colnago at the clark is just chilling. Not even locked up.

Salon.com article trying to justify drunk driving →

shoesonwrong:
This article pissed me right off. The author is attempting to make the reader feel sympathetic for drunk drivers under the premise that “Especially for women, alcohol has tremendous appeal as a way to calm our fears and blunt our miseries.” I’m all for exploring why people become alcoholics or alcohol abusers, but don’t even freaking try to lump...
I admit defeat. Vegan substitutes make me more...
ronisolomondds:
Food is one of the few things I approach with an open mind (well, at least initially). I’ll try everything at least once; and I’ll make an effort to learn all I can about the history, ingredients, preparation and significance of whatever I am eating. I’ll eat vegan pan-asian food for lunch, and for dinner I’ll eat veal piccata. I really don’t think twice about what I eat...

It feels like I’ve been sitting on this for a while, but my new EP To Swift Mars hits stores today, August 4th via Polyvinyl. It was recorded last year in DC with fellow Aloha member TJ Lipple at the board, mixed in Brooklyn with Brian Jacobs from Apes And Androids and well, I reckon it’s my best solo record yet, by a long way.
Purchase via Polyvinyl, iTunes, or at...
