Cats and lambs

Your Christo post reminded me of the idea I had to author events as work. The idea for a the false rock in the peaks was sort of trying to do this - take a series of events and through doing your own continuation claim the previous events as art - or perhaps get people to look at the events differently.

It is hard to see the wrapped up sculpture as anything but art - it is a good tool to talk about intention and artists in the role of art making but I have a cold and cannot really be arsed. I'm not sure why pylons are a symbol of modernism but clearly your chopping them up in pylon field and making them into stairs is very post-modern but maybe again we need to talk about intention.

Ask your dad if he was making a post modern statement or just making do. We are straying off the beaten track in our intention to stray off the beaten track maybe the idea has run out of puff -needs to change into something else- or perhaps we needed to talk about different things which brings me to the cat and the lamb. There is something about things which look like something else which is funny and somehow important in terms of image and cognition. I am going to look and see if there is anything written about it anywhere- hedgehogs which look like yams and squirrils which look like potatoes. Here is ice melting which looked like a cat when I first walked past it then I circled around and it had melted to look like a lamb.
