Going Down, Town.

India Napolis

I'm mostly moved into my new place in downtown Indianapolis. 400 square feet of computer gear, art supplies, music supplies, clothes, books and workout equipment. It takes me twenty minutes on foot to walk to the center of downtown from my front door.

I'm in a coffee house that marks the half-way point. It's nice to be in a coffee house where the art on the walls is selling for $950. This is the first time I've been online since I got here. I was pleased to see my work featured as a daily deviation on the DeviantArt website: featured link

The coffee house is right across the street from the gigantic, silver public library. I got my card the first day I was here with my lease as a proof of address. I have been ransacking their huge collection of graphic novels and artist series DVDs. I've already read two different anthologies of comics from 2008.

Today I plan on heading downtown with my camera and snapping some eye candy for you all. Tomorrow is my orientation where I find out what the hell I'll be doing for the next two years. I'll also get my studio assigned and can begin moving all my supplies out of my tiny, cramped apartment.

I'll also be getting my three-legged roommate this weekend. I hope she likes the new digs.

The List

I found the list. THE list. I don't remember writing it. I don't remember when it's from, just one of those memory-shaped cereal prizes.

The List intrigues me.

The List reads as follows,
in my own handwriting:

leach wife
union by gnawing
the palate
super natural mother
Menstruata
the vision of no difference
the head which is not
Retarder
formless state
said to have a monkey
prime object
the false sea
skirt of justice
the antique servant
the steak of puberty
The Supernal Beard
the covenant of his mouth
Cubitus
weasels and other terrible animals
the girdle which girt the house of fire
heads of days/the head which is the tail
the doings of the godless
everything that befalls the elephant
lips extol
the eaten son of man
grievous judgment
apostacy
husbandmen
functionalism
the deficiencies of style
lotus of the palace of the floods
petty malice
The Phallic Yod of Macroprosopus
the answer of the oracles is always "death"
the book-smart fool
the consciophy of philosophus
