Time out of Time
February 22nd, 2009Suddenly, the urge to journal is back, as if it had never left me. Although I have two perfectly good journals in progress, I tore into the idea of altering a beautiful weekly calendar, Nesting 2009.
Calendars and I do not get along well. I don’t live a measured life. Some days are long, others are too long, and then there are the days that leave me breathless as I put on my highest heels, dress in my Queen of the Universe suit (a smart black trouser suit with a long-ish jacket, just in case you were wondering), and MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.
The idea of altering a calendar, using it in a non-linear way, and possible even ripping out entire weeks at a time, fascinates me greatly. So, the manifesto of this journal isn’t at the beginning. It’s somewhere in the middle. The next page may fall before it, or after. It doesn’t matter. I control my own destiny, and am not a slave to time.
I don’t even wear a watch.
How do you feel about time? How does it influence your art journal?

Saw your great ATC “the stamp collector” at Art in Your Pocket. The Q of the U suit sounds cool – I must get a King one to MAKE MORE THINGS HAPPEN !
Time means nothing – see how old this post is an yet its still immediately relevant. I’m looking forward to exploring your site more – feel free to visit mine, maybe take part in some projects ?
