Hi, I'm Derivative.
:37:30
Come to see my work?
:37:32
I've got
this medical paraphernalia here,
:37:34
which I've made into little objects.
:37:37
Butt-plug stool--
some people say it's like Nayland Blake.
:37:40
No, it's mine, Mr. Derivative.
I made it.
:37:43
Here you have scaffolded video
representing my face
:37:46
in six monitors.
Some people say Nam June Paik
:37:49
some people say Bruce Nauman,
no, I made it-- Derivative.
:37:52
I like to lie in bed, as long as I can,
:37:54
let people in the gallery
come and see me.
:37:56
Nothing like the Chris Burden
on the shelf thing,
:37:58
it's a Derivative extravaganza.
I invented it. I made it.
:38:03
People come to the museum and say,
"Hey, there is a Derivative."
:38:36
And I want to begin by
asking Bob Flanagan, "How do you feel? "
:38:41
- A logical hospital question?
- A logical hospital question.
:38:45
As an art question, I'm exhausted,
:38:47
medically
I'm doing pretty well right now.
:38:50
- For how long--?
- Two months.
:38:52
- Two months? Oh, la.
- I go home at night.
:38:56
Your are here as an art object,
are you not?
:38:59
Right.
That's-- yeah.
