2023 July Deck of Hexjeff Project Done, Commence the Hexjeff Tapes

I am a hotter
mess than I know and I know
You have no idea

nor me about you
Painters tape doesn’t absorb
water, I’d forgot

I hadn’t tried it
since last night. I’m not taking
but tablet and pens

to Maine, I don’t
think of tablet as canvas
Jeff, fuckee, work that

  1. To complete a deck, cycle, ring, stack, bunch, quartet, octet or dekalog (like Kieslowski!), and so on, is so so good! For Artist and Art Audience alike. The thing now has a body! It can be understood! If you were Eno Fripp you’d print those up as laminated cards. That one you post above is a good synthesis of your rectangling style and your biomorphics. You must be relieved. Now you can chill before forcing yourself into another Art Sprint up That Hill…

  2. as i was looking at this today, the traditional song “once i had a sweetheart and now i have none” popped into my head – who did i first hear it from? – carolyn hester? joan baez? fourth grade music class [in the mid-1950s in falls church, virginia- the music teacher’s name may come back to me at some point – she played an autoharp – we sang wonderful songs like “the ash grove”]?

    fortunately, right now i DO have a sweetheart – thanks be to the creative forces of the universe

    there’s an updating of a hasidic saying, i’ve heard – “you don’t have to save the world by yourself, but you are on the rescue squad” – in the same way, jeff, you are a member of the “creative forces of the universe” committee
