But you conveniently forget that
the artist however hermetic his life...
:13:06
is still in effect
an autocratic figure.
:13:08
He's still however benevolently
a social dictator...
:13:11
and his public however generously
enfranchised by electronic options...
:13:14
is still on the receiving end
of the experience.
:13:18
All your neomedieval anonymity quest
on behalf of the "artist-as-zero"...
:13:22
and all your vertical pan-culturalism on
behalf of his "public" won't change it.
:13:25

:13:26

But l do feel strongly about the--
:13:29

- That's not quite fair Mr. Gould.
:13:33
Or about the interlocutor
as controller of conversation perhaps?
:13:37

Toronto.

Toronto Canada?
:14:25
lt should read as follows:
:14:28
" Dear Walter. Stop.
:14:31
Under the weather yesterday. Stop.
:14:35
X-rays reveal chronic bronchitis--
:14:39
Bronchitis in right lung. Stop.
:14:43
Feeling as foggy
as it is outside. Stop.
:14:52
Stop.
:14:54
lt would suit you perfectly. Stop.
