RIP A.B. : a perfect guide, you took us deep into the woods to wander wildly as though a secret passage would ensure your past was secure.

Tendejon Case Study: A passageway in pastiche.
 

26.05.26

Tendejon Case Study: Cafeteria Derian's features what some refer to as bathroom tattoo signifiers.

25.05.26

El tendejon: storefront holidays must include diving with grace.

24.05.26

The cobbles, meticulously torn up, stacked and wrapped. Carted off to another callé perhaps?

El tendejon - en Yucatan, una pequena tienda de abarottes de barrio.

22.05.26

Lo siento, soy lento.

21.05.26

Uxmal Wandering: It was suggested that this is a flagellation pole - or an altar column representing the trunk of a tree at the centre of the world. Also acceptable to read this as an arboreal whipping stage. 

20.05.26

A slight chill in the air. Regardless, we are reminded that f - 30 = y; y / 2 = c. Ergo 68 •F/ 19 •C

​19.05.26

Weather humid with highs of 42•c. Our bodies remain steadfast as hydrophilic membranes.

18.05.26

To sum up there is a suggestion that those who are close are far apart.

17.05.26

Multitudes in Madrid commemorating the 50th anniversary of that Tlatelolco horror ... a simulation of the ‘68 massacre of protesters led by the Mexican government in the precise site of the bloody conquest of the Aztecs by the Spanish where pyramids were dismantled to construct a cathedral that would later be repurposed as a winery.

16.05.26

Conquering as a series - N1, N2, N3, N4, and so on - where every other event is a capture and rebuild.

15.05.26

A los compañeros caidos el 2 de octobre de 1968 en esta plaza…

14.05.26

The scattered glyphs point to the displacement of the sacred body - a diasporic expression that predates a larger migration.
 

13.05.26

Everything is askew. "On 13 August 1521, heroically defended by Cuauhtémoc, Tlatelolco fell to Hernan Cortes. It was neither a defeat nor a triumph. It was the painful birth of the mestizo people that are Mexico today."

12.05.26

Gothic slant with appropriated magnificence leans heavily into past exploits.
 

11.05.26

An enclosure of ovoid blue sits within a field of forced pumice. The mortar screams with each trowel full.
 

 

10.05.26

We have arrived at the source, where matter is smelted into a citation cloud.

​09.05.26

The foundation elaborates the duality of expectation, the curse offered as a gift.

08.05.26

The steps flow red with the spilt blood of youth over millennia. This is Tlatelolco.

07.05.26

The heat weighs heavy now. There is a need to move on. To pedal hard through the early morning cemetery mist. To disengage from the cycle of consumption and release. 

​“06.05.26”

We do not take the definition nor the construction of concepts lightly… not even time. Example: there is intrigue in the spirographic representation of time employed by the Mayans no matter how arborescent its origins.

​05.05.26

We have considered the reasoning behind living with high ceilings. For the moment we remain grounded, while heat rises - even after days of cochinita pibil.

​

04.05.26

When I see the word duration I reach for my Bergson.

​03.05.26

Concepts, and for that matter ideas, are best not left to be polished or purified as Nietzsche proclaimed, but created - concepts as friends that resist being re-buffed.

​02.05.26

Considering the act of developing a new concept.

​01.05.26

The slipped pavers have brought us to the rink. We don’t know what this place is capable of yet.

​30.04.26

Within sight of the plane of immanence.

 

29.04.26

Magnolia soulangeana - assorted stems arranged in a brick vase potted by Lynne Johnson.

28.04.26

Edgeworthia Chrysantha - lovingly manicured, sparingly labelled. 

27.04.26

Situational art or whitewashed percepts disguised as low budget graffiti gestures? The Baptists are left wondering.
 

​26.04.26

The said corner as it was before the migration, the vacancy, the splinted exposition of strata.

25.04.26

East-side thought control is futile. 
 

24.04.26

The editorial board requested that this serial architecture be acknowledges as Arch du Trumph. We endure an excess of signification.

23.04.26

"Mid-century" peel back in Kerripole North, just a moment away from the former Rogers Mansion.
 

22.04.26

A brief study in three. Bobbie Burgers at the Equinox Gallery. Floral drippings remind us of Yorkshire puddings.

21.04.26

Oh Cookie!

20.04.26

The sheer violence of the diesel choked front loader incited laughter as it shovelled the cellular off-cuts pirhouetting in the breeze.

Random Event, 2026 

(wood, steel, aluminum, trash)

Vancouver, BC
 

​

18.04.26

Transitional however progressive in tint. Warm and clearly spring-like.

17.04.26

Weather sunny with deception. Coolness extending blossoms in their prime. At ease facing each direction. 

16.04.26

The nautical theme is extended through the affect of prow-like balconies cast in steel, forged and riveted. 
 

15.04.26

"Comparing the event to a mist rising over the prairie, we could say that this mist rises precisely at the frontier, at a juncture of events ..." Deleuze, G., The Logic of Sense

14.04.26

Photographer Stephen Shore is featured at the Vancouver Art Gallery at the moment. His pictures pull me in for many reasons. His compositions are balanced, the colours vibrant, and they clearly evoke a time. But there is also honesty, particularly among the portraits. And then there is the concept of the Road Trip. For I too might feel as though the era of the classic journey by car may be mostly in the past - and as it should be. From the post-was period to the 1980's cars were large and powerful and gasoline affordable. And cars were plentiful in their all of there pre-digital diversity and distinctive odiferousness.

"The idea of any thing that increases or diminishes, aids or restrains, our body's power of acting, increases or diminishes aids or restrains, our mind's power of thinking." Spinoza, B. Ethics 3p11

12.04.26

PSV extends best wishes to PM who ousts VO just days after JDV endorses the authoritarian status quo. If VPOTUS election meddling generates similar outcomes such endorsements are encouraged. 
 

11.04.26

Laneway editions in the random light of an afternoon commute. 
 

10.04.26 

Reason promotes the elevation of delight as a suitable response to a textured wall in morning light. 

09.04.26

Working on passions after Spinoza, concepts both sad and joyful.
