The most interesting piece I saw today at the NADA art fair in South Beach. Really great experiential installation. Those are mirrors, not paintings. The little room is amazingly calming and yet makes you feel a bit surveilled.

If I could have a kid like this I'd have a kid:

“Sometimes I cannot work out my offspring. One moment he will state something that catches me off guard with its clarity, then the next come out with something that causes me to think he may be mentally handicapped.”

————————————————————

School

“I don’t understand why I have to go to school at all, the internet knows more than all the teachers there put together.”

After paying $7.50 for a coffee

“We should open up a shop next to that one, buy their coffees and sell them from our shop for a dollar more.”

Shoplifting

“If we went into a shop and I put a stereo on and danced, you could run out with a different stereo while everyone is looking at me.”

Swimming

“If you swim in the sea then you should always go swimming with a fat girl because sharks will go for them first.”

On having homosexuality explained

“That’s gross. Not the bit about girls kissing girls though, that’s pretty good.”

Soon. Again.
Although I don’t know how it could be as fun as last time.
My goals for the January trip include:
Further exploration of the Templehof airport and mythologizing of the place my parents met/research for the project I’ve been writing for nearly 5 years.
More museums, not just the Hamburger Bahnhof.
A trip with Shannon to Potsdam, even though exploring castle gardens in the snow might be tricky.
Renting a BMW and taking the autobahn to the fake tropical beach dome.

I have to say I love this.
Too bad it is $350 and birds are kind of gross.
