Rarenest: You Can See It From Space.
http://rarenest.blogspot.com/2006/11/you-can-see-it-from-space.html
Sunday, November 26, 2006. You Can See It From Space. I went for a walk/run/ride today to work off some of the gravy and pecan pie and started in the Forest Preserves which was lovely until I got to this area. The Desplaines River divides Maywood and River Forest and borders a beautiful preserve of indigenous oak savanah. And it looks like at least one municipality dumped a bunch of old light poles.

Rarenest: MERRY KITSCHMAS: MY PRESENT
http://rarenest.blogspot.com/2007/11/merry-kitschmas-my-present.html
Thursday, November 29, 2007. MERRY KITSCHMAS: MY PRESENT. These are actual current or recent Christmas ornament offerred by lovely people on the largest internet auction site in the world. This is a virtual installation piece that I've wanted to do for the last couple of years. The thing that spurred me on was the recent 23 million dollar. Koons appropriated this design from another designer and then Jeff made it big. Whoop. I'm giving it away! The text in gold. Is my narative. The text in white. They si...

Rarenest: July 2007
http://rarenest.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 30, 2007. Damien Hirst's Memento Mori. Can the size difference be attributed to nutrition? I hesitate to start a rant about values, culture, the decline of all civilization. It would only lead to a profound sadness about Lindsay Lohan and the Salton Sea. I predict there will be limited general interest in Hirst's latest work and I don't want to feed any scrap of gawking. If his intention is reflexive of the grotesque consumerist culture, then well-done son. And afterthought, full disclosure,...

Wednesday, January 23, 2008. Random Images from 2007. She won best costume - need a hint? She travels from north to south and for most of the year,. An hour from North Ave. to Belmont. That's right - she's the CTA's Red Line! One of the judges said, "Does she smell like urine? That would be real.". Christmas with Howard in Hinsdale included. And a sublime red in a Lalique glass.

Rarenest: April 2007
http://rarenest.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 23, 2007. You Can See It From Space - Update. Read Part One Here. On Sunday, I went back to the Desplaines River in the Forest Preserves. The wildflowers were really pretty including a few trillium. Decided to check on the river banks on the Maywood side. It's a U-Haul business that backs up against the river. Time to get on the phone with the powers that be and start getting some fences built. At least they can put some signs around. Monday, April 23, 2007. Links to this post. Unhappy in t...

Sunday, August 26, 2007. Just back from the Farm. It's been a wet month which made a perfect environment for a broad variety of mushrooms including the delicious Chanterelles.
