These are awesome...keep posting them!
Any Minter? I might have to dig some up.
The name sounds familiar but if you can find something that'd be great!
Sorry, I meant Marilyn Minter. I can't upload her stuff I like because I am on an old tablet! But her stuff is incredible, esp if you see it in person.
And you know what’s responsible? It’s dust! The earth doesn’t have a housekeeper to do the dusting. And the dust that falls on it every day remains there. Everything that’s come down to us from the past has been conserved by dust. Right here, look at these piles, in a few weeks a thick layer of dust has formed. On rue La Boétie, in some of my rooms … my things were already beginning to disappear, buried in dust. You know what? I always forbade everyone to clean my studios, dust them, not only for fear they would disturb my things, but especially because I always counted on the protection of dust. It’s my ally. I always let it settle where it likes. It’s like a layer of protection. When there’s dust missing here or there, it’s because someone has touched my things. I see immediately someone has been there. And it’s because I live constantly with dust, in dust, that I prefer to wear gray suits, the only color on which it leaves no trace.
This was incredible. Is this what DMT is really like?
Not long after they first emerged in the underground music scene in mid-1960s London, Pink Floyd earned a reputation, as Rolling Stone put it in 2007, as the city’s “farthest-out group.” And as art students at the time they got together, the band members — the bassist Roger Waters, the singer Syd Barrett, the drummer Nick Mason and the pianist Rick Wright; Barrett was later replaced by David Gilmour — firmly believed their aesthetic was as important as the notes they played. The Floyd, as they were known, provided audiences with a complete sensory experience, pairing visceral, operatic lyrics with elaborate light projections that seemed to move in turn to the music. And even as they achieved global popularity in the 1970s with a string of landmark albums including 1973’s “The Dark Side of the Moon,” 1975’s “Wish You Were Here” and 1979’s “The Wall,” the band remained focused on bringing visual ideas to the forefront through their live shows and iconic album art.
It’s no wonder, then, that Pink Floyd has inspired countless visual artists since. As the band prepares to unveil its first unreleased material in 20 years, the largely instrumental album “Endless River,” T spoke with four contemporary talents to learn how they first discovered the band and ultimately drew upon its work to influence their own.
