: David,
: I know I haven't posted my Chrysalis collection yet. Do
: you still remember me? It's funny. I'm now doing a
: collection based on an idea I have of a world that has
: a free roam of "mash-up" creatures...animals
: that possess two features: one of their own and one of
: another kind that creates a symmetry among all
: freakind for pride and ego. Such as roses that have
: noses instead of thorns...so they can smell their own
: preciousness as you would assume a rose would have the
: personality to wish to do so (but here that isn't a
: vice...it all exists so openly that there is no
: conflict of interests...every one is an acceptant).
: Anyway, I wanted the human fashion figures that exist in
: this realm among these creatures to come in twos, to
: be reflections of each other...each a little different
: than its so-called mirror image...a sort of
: siamese-ness that is opposing yet complimentary. two
: things that have a reliance on each other to exist,
: but here one is the friendly ghost of the
: other...co-existence of juxtapositions if that ever
: worked in real life...
: Let me get to my point...sorry for the long story. I was
: just sitting down to read Kabuki #8 (which I picked up
: in Texas; I'd never read it before)...and once again,
: I am completely tangently inspired by your work.
: "Human symmetry, though more than skin deep, is
: not total. we have but one heart. And it is not only
: asymmetrical, but located to the left of center.
: Unless we are a pair of mirror twins, in which case it
: may turn up on the right...which brings me to the
: twin/twin paradox. the paradox lies in our own
: mistaken assumptions about the way the world works
: rather than the logic of the situation. common sense
: is wrong. even a reflection is relative...and when the
: two meet, they annihilate each other." (Except in
: my concept, they don't...they co-exist mystically,
: almost beautifully).
: Now that is beautifully kismet for me, somehow everytime
: I pick up an issue of Kabuki, I am mid-collection, and
: mid-confident with my concept. And somehow, in that
: specific chapter of your story that I happen to pick
: up, I am strangely reassured that I've done something
: right. Thanks for that!!! I will post some stuff up in
: the near future.
Hi Jen,
Of course I completely remember you. We spoke in Dallas.
Thanks for that! I appreciate it.
Glad to see you on the board here.
And looking forward to seeing what you post.
Best,
David
