After 5 years of living with my wonderful bf… he broke my <3 and now I'm moving out to my first apartment by myself. The coolest part is, that I am moving in a basement apart owned by two fulltime artists, who gave up their 9 – 5 to follow their dreams at my parent's age. I admire that! So the boxes closest to me contain over a 100 record albums that I use to make my art from. The very first and most important thing I'll be doing once I move out is to immediately start on making my new sculpture piece incorporating music and photography. I'm very excited about the project

The closest box to me is the one I’m currently sitting within. It is a non-descriptive box with large white walls, four of them, equal distance from one another if you were to stand in their center. The are no windows but there are four doors that are electronically controlled. Within this box resides a very large computer. It is black in color with blinking lights. Some are green, some are blue and some are red. Other than for my personal computer, the supercomputer, a cup of coffee, my backpack, chair – which makes a nice squeaky noise – and a few wires there are no other things within this building. I am alone. And though I am inside a box this does not mean I am inside a box. I am Schrodinger’s cat.
NOTHING because I always win NOTHING for the love of god please put something in the box next to me

I have to say, love these PogoBooks. Sometimes I feel like people don’t admire photographs as much as they used to, because they are know mostly in digital format. That’s why I try to shoot film, or print my photos when I can (or other people’s photos, just to stick them on my wall for inspiration of course, no other purposes!) and I think that’s the beauty of this box set.. touching the photograph makes it more personal, more intimate. Okay this sounds a bit all over the place, anyway, to get to the point.. The closest box to me at this moment contains, ironically, some old family photos my grandmother found and sent me. So glad she discovered them! I have to find a nice place for them soon, can’t let them sit in that box forever.
An accordion. I’m not sure who it belongs to.

watercolor paper, bills, a checkbook, and a butter knife.
