Overful: April 2007
http://overful.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 14, 2007. Thank Yous (and R.I.P.s). This post has finally been reconstituted after I mistakenly erased this blog and the name was taken over by spammers. The original date of publication was January 13th, 2006. I've made one change: I've reversed the order of Thank yous and RIPs because one friend, scanning too quickly, saw my face, read "RIP," and started to cry. The following must be thanked by name:. David Goorevitch and Annette Frymer (both of whom also nursed me back to health).

Overful: Ruth Kaplan at Ryerson Gallery: "Some Kind of Divine"
http://overful.blogspot.com/2010/05/ruth-kaplan-at-ryerson-gallery-some.html
Saturday, May 15, 2010. Ruth Kaplan at Ryerson Gallery: "Some Kind of Divine". 8220;Some Kind of Divine,” Ruth Kaplan’s new show of photographs (and a video) opened at Ryerson Gallery (80 Spadina) Thursday night, May 13th. Thirteen must be a lucky number. It was for me. I saw pieces that, in themselves, were as good as everything—not anything but everything—I’ve seen at CONTACT this month so far. There were several pieces of that quality. In fact there’s lots of soft grain that exactly matches the ...

Overful: McLuhan's Animal Farm
http://overful.blogspot.com/2010/05/mcluhans-animal-house.html
Sunday, May 16, 2010. When you believe in things you don’t understand then you suffer. Superstition ain’t the way. At Ruth Kaplan’s show, “ Some Kind of Divine. 8221; I read the usual gallery blurb til I got to the word “McLuhanesque.” I walked away. Nothing in Kaplan’s work is McLuhanesque and I wondered aloud what McLuhanesque could possibly mean. McLuhan wasn’t a photographer. He was an academic. And where's the proof? The ability to conceive and imagine music? Where is the proof? And the train, plane...

DAN GOOREVITCHDavid: Sheepshearing
http://dangoorevitch-david.blogspot.com/2008/02/sheepshearing.html
Tuesday, February 26, 2008. And there was a man in Maon. shearing his sheep in Carmel. The name of the man was Nabal; .his wife [,] Abigail;. And David heard.[and] sent out ten young men,. (1 Samuel 25:1-5). The son of Jesse? Naked they skit as the shears quit their clack. Heads tack, haunches bound, seeking open turf. Quake, shake, wash their faces in wind. Kick, jump, come ground. Strip by strip, fleeces mount. Women card—discard the skimpy strands,. Draw the long to loom (short to soften straw)—.

Sunday, April 15, 2007. White puffs and blue above. Of wool, the colour. Is asphalt, reflecting. Green tinge. Night. Below me. A filigree. Of the wheels as they. Touch down. In bed. Comes rest. Within rest. Comes the sun, the son,. The young lover to his bride. With calves of iron joy. What is perfectly sure. Revives as it simplifies. In this wise what is right and pure. All that it commands. What is clean and true. Is what cuts what's wanted. From that which is possible;. A man's days are numbered,.

Overful: "The Rape of Africa" at MOCCA
http://overful.blogspot.com/2010/05/rape-of-africa-at-mocca.html
Sunday, May 9, 2010. The Rape of Africa" at MOCCA. The photo on the exterior wall at MOCCA seems to be a critique of The West. It isn’t. A critique is a subject closely studied: studied to a critical degree. “Critical” in the moral sense is more like judgment or denunciation. “Critical” in the academic sense is a degree, a measurement of rigor, honesty. 8221; I aked. The man’s jaws were clenching. “Who are YOU to challenge anything anybody says? But nothing can be right or wrong anymore. But I will say t...

http://overful.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 22, 2009. Updates to "Thank Yous (and R.I.P.s)" below. Died in the winter of '06 after a long fight with Scleroderma which took out her original kidneys, her transplanted kidney and a list of other organs I don't have the heart to mention. Jo-Ann was a beautiful person. She left a 14 year old daughter. Got a transplant a few months ago! My beloved uncle Jerry Mayer. My friend Eric Layman. And The Canadian Jewish News. Where he worked. There's a small Wikipedia entry here.

Tuesday, May 15, 2012. Big sirs frame d a glass t in loo k anigh t wrap. B'tween us cull and a whirl. D war fed s kills unfulfillèd longings. Looking long in and out of wind. Bits 'n bytes off hiss.

The wave s an d rift would pit dis t'ing against the other. And in the sound that crashes, crushing thought,. Time as tide would (sand as sun would).
