Painting nr01, at 20241011
I flipped the canvas you see. The canvas got crooked and I did not notice. I smoothed it all out so to look at it is pleasing, it can do what we please. It can be hung slanted or maybe make a frame so that it is exactly crooked because of what happened (or forget about it). It is a surprise, an attraction to viscosity. I brought the nylon string home and recorded 4 layers of 3 notes or so then sampled it on a Swedish sampler. The day before yesterday was good. Yesterday not excellent, the left side of my head felt radiated and my phone switched off (I was playing mp3s on it). Perhaps some form of resonance.
