The most surprising aspect of this project for me is how I keep finding meaning.
Things that matter. Meaning I didn’t have when I started.
It's a grower.
Red
Nature
Gender
It annoyed me when people would talk about gender identity as an un-argued point in this project. Now I don’t really care.
It’s never going to be about gender for me.
Or blood.
Or nature.
Or anything really.
It’s only about combining me with somebody else. Becoming somebody else. But then I know everything worth knowing about myself,
I’ve had me, for as long as I remember,
Who's this guy?
American victorian author Edgar Allan Poe
Yeah but why this guy?
cause he's stupid. So am I.
The extra space created when mixing is interesting. It’s new. I’m not always around everyone else, so I understand that that itself isn’t quite enough for an interesting project.
So project, some meaning.
