Art is dangerous. It is one of the attractions -when it ceases to be dangerous you don't want it. -Duke Ellington
We all do "doh re mi" -but you got to find the other notes yourself. -Louis Armstrong
I'll play it first and tell you what it is later. -Miles Davis
We live in a world with more and more information, and less and less meaning. -Jean Baudrillard
Ellington has created not only a new art form but a new reason to live. -Blaise Cendrars
These seem simple and calm.
Sometimes you gotta play a long time to play like yourself. -Miles Davis
You've got to find some way of saying it without saying it. -Duke Ellington
Directly across the street stands a fire hydrant. They are not new. They are old. Some men were out there working on it. It stands in all its unassuming beauty -and it almost seems already a relic. Some revenant of a past long gone.
do I see a giraffe neck (or snake skin texture) ? intruiging, and very nice quote from musicians. Are you a Baudrillard scholar?
ReplyDeleteIt does look like a skin texture, but not deliberately. I'm no more a Baudrillard scholar than any kind of scholar although I did read that one book of his. I've read some of the Blanchot and other cats too.
