Self-Assembling Memory Palace

[avad]

Just a pic of an artwork in progress. This is my Self-Assembling Memory Palace. Course in my mind it is dynamic and fluid with the bits and spaces floating and connecting like snowflakes.. overlapping into temporary labyrinthian configurations based on associative memory. Within the large green square is an aerial/blueprint of the first floor of my childhood home...a sort of armature I envision attracting and embedding object/memories/files into for personal navigational ease.

Did you notice that the bottom-left corner vaguely resembles the kitchen/dining room/living room of your house? :)

It's a lovely palace, Dar. Great distribution of space - I'm sure it will hold a lot of also-gorgeous thoughts!

dude that's so cool!

I want that chair.

we SO found those chairs out in the rain behind the store I used to work in, left out for trash, can you believe?! They're awesome. a round table was with them too but that was pretty busted up. but the chairs are perfect for the studio because they're very light. and they can move into the house when needed and look nice.yadayada

ya should of busted up the round table and steal it to use as a base for your artwork!

but those chairs are ace I like that curve wood design back raining.

I've been thumbing through modern furniture catalogs I snag from work on my LIRR home... I'm furniture obsesed argue!

believe me that was my intention with the table. but the wood was all warped and the steel part busted up. I kept it awhile but when we moved we tossed it finally.

if you want metal bases, I can keep an eye out for you. I'm a trash scavanger arge captain.

yum
