Passing Flowers
I'm very busy now that business has collapsed. 2009 looks to be a banner year. I'm learning to use Flickr. I'm writing again. Might as well start something personal. Do you do projects? A lot of us focus on themed investigations, particular angles, purposeful journeys. We search for a subject, wrestle with it, and then network our access, our permissions, our intentions. And then we point the camera. We're expected to work this way -- curators, critics, editors, my two year old downstairs neighbor -- everyone wants to know: what are you working on these days? I want to focus on not-focusing. I'm tired of projects. I want a moment. This is crazy. I've got too much work to do. Lie down. Can you picture it? I like the afternoon sun in this corner. These are passing flowers.
