1) smoldering is a funny word
2) Here’s a suggestion on how to answer unwanted e-mails (spam, ex-lovers, etc) in the future:
Hello,
I broke my leg and won’t be able to do any of this!! It makes me so mad to because I really wanted to make it all happen. Dammit!
Sincerely,
(your name here)
and 3) Does anyone want to sublet my place from mid-March through mid-April? It is a rad place! Free Costco TP! Let me know if you are interested. It costs me $ 1366 a month, but I’d be willing to drop the price a bit as I know that is a lot. Has great views and a big kitchen and a sofa and a TV and cable and internets and a shower and a toilet and 2 sinks!!! that’s right TWO SINKS!!!
(p.s. neither of those are actually my sinks though, I was too lazy to take pics of my sinks for you. sorry)

When I was in France, I finally got to see the Mona Lisa. Not at all what I was expecting, but here is a quick shot of it.

To coincide with Laughing in a Foreign Language, artist and comedian Marc Horowitz presents his extraordinary Centre for Improved Living, an open workshop featuring sculptures, videos, performance, life-coaching and conversation with the artist. Addressing a diverse range of subjects from architectural environments, advertising and commerce to happiness and power, Horowitz’s project thrives on a makeshift, DIY aesthetic. Using props, objects and ideas, Horowitz encourages and facilitates exchanges of laughter, provocation, problem-solving and improved ways of living.

The show opens on March 18th and goes until April 13th. I am planning on doing a talk show in the gallery – have three talk shows a week each lasting an hour with 2-3 guests. Each show would have a topic, taken from thecenterforimprovedliving.blogspot.com daily questions. I would loosely address this topic or question with each of the guests as we do an activity related to the topic. I also plan to have several workshops.
I am looking for the following people to help out, the time commitment is totally up you and we can discuss it.
1) guests to be on the show
2) camera people to run cameras
3) some internet tech savvy folks to make this a live webcast and help with the website
4) a sound technician
5) set builders/ environmental designers
6) creatives who are interested in making props
7) writers to help with some of the guest questions and interstitial segments.
8) A producer/ publicist to help line-up guests
9) some general help
Everyone would get credit and have an opportunity to say they showed at the Hayward! I really see this as a nice community of people coming together and creating something about the real people of London, not just a bunch of celebrity pop-culture bullshit.
If you or someone you know would be interested in this project please e-mail me at ineedtostopsoon at gmail dot com.

Made a few new sculptures for the center for improved living opening here. They’re for the “At Least You Don’t Have It This Bad Series.”
