Feeding at the Tumblr Trough

CYBERSPACE, 11 March – in a world of 7 billion souls, is it reasonable, is it possible at all, to expect to have “unique” ideas? To be “creative?” When the Art History PhD’s helming MOMA or the Tate or the global culture institution of your choice “reblog” 20th centuriers like Jackson Pollock or 21st centurions like Mike Kelley, the trough they semi-communally feed at may be a different one than the trough of internet memes that peeps like Tumblr users reblog from, yet aren’t prestigious museum curators and ordinary public Tumblrers each reblogging from their own parallel troughs?

I’m really loving your vimeo videos Mirae, the latest ones are quite sublime. Moments that exist somewhere between the simplicity of Alan Kaprow and the awe of JMW Turner.

Phasing out of wordpress? Haha! I’ve invested a lot in my wordpress and am just now discovering the remarkable energy of tumblr. IDK. I guess I’ll keep both for a while.
