This is where I collect things. Maybe you'd also be interested in reading a few things that I've written, or viewing some of my photos, or even some of my videos. If you're feeling especially voyeuristic, you might even want to look through my links, listening habits, and social connections.

Had a wonderful visit from Michael this weekend. Here he is, droppin’ some knowledge after we encountered a childrens’ gamelan orchestra at the Lake Harriet band shell.

One features an image of a rabbit that Beuys noticed on a sugar packet while dining at Nye’s Polonaise Room in Minneapolis. Enlisting the help of his dinner partners, he searched the sugar supply on each table, as well as in the restaurant’s storeroom, for as many packets as he could find.

Quote

New York is the most innocent town in the world. It looks as if it were made of children’s building blocks, and the shops have a naive glamour that I remember from the Roaring Twenties.
— Joseph Beuys, on his first visit to the United States at the age of 53. The other two cities visited for his 1974 “Energy Plan for the Western Man”: Chicago and Minneapolis.

Photo reblogged from Hi, I'm Colin.

This is exciting stuff, wish I’d been in MPLS to check out the prototype!
Colin Kloecker:

Shanai and I built something (more photos).
We’ll build it again on Saturday and then again on Sunday. We hope you’ll stop by and contribute a movement to our new museum.

unburyingthelead asked: I will ask you the same question. It seems a lot of people from Tumblr are packing up and moving there this fall. :)

Ah, yes! The original question(s) being: 

When are you moving to New York? What’re you doing there? How many questions can I ask somebody I’ve never met before I seem weird and stalker-ish?

Well,

  1. I’m moving at the end of August, giving me one last spectacular Spring/Summer to explore Minneapolis on Le Gitane. I sure will miss this town.
  2. I wrote briefly about this before, but some friends and I — many of whom are fellow members of The Rotarians Society — will be coalescing as The Notion Collective. We’re all dabblers of sorts and have many different ideas of what we’ll be doing, but our bread & butter rent-paying work will be in new media-ish stuff (web, video, design, etc.)
  3. I’m hoping three.

Photo reblogged from Madge-World: Welcome to it.

One of my favorite cafes in this city. They are effective in further proving the butter = delicious hypothesis. (Sorry, vegans.)
madge-world:

Breakfast in south Minneapolis. And when they say “butter” they’re not kidding.
