ARTISTS* AND THE ACTIVITY DESCRIPTIONS ON WHICH I HAVE ASKED THEM TO EXPAND
dave eggers / mowing down pedestrians
david lynch / climbing into a dumpster
helen oyeyemi / napping
*esb feels that using "artist" as a standalone term (without a qualifier such as "visual" or "fondant") for, say, writers and breakdancers as opposed to painters and sculptors is douchey; i think i'm alright with it in some contexts. we agree that it's better in any case when one says it with a phony french accent.
does this qualify as a "subpost"?
ReplyDeletethe point of subbing is to not ID the thing or things one is gossiping about, right? this is actually more explanation than i usually give for things, so i'd say no. (helen oyeyemi has nightmares when she naps while writing a book, as she told us at the reading i linked up there; it sounds grueling.)
