Burning Man - Rites of Passage

I have an idea brewing for an art piece for this year's Burning Man theme that I think is excellently appropriate. I have the core idea and intended / driving meaning, but not all of the refinments, flavors and surfaces of those. I'm also not sure how I want to go about telling people what the idea is, since I want others to be inspired by it, but not to mimic, for to mimic, I think, would do something between defeat and poison the concept. At the very least, I expect to (want to) share the core, driving idea, since that I would want to see mimiced. I may have something later tonight to share, but I'm holding off on the consumption of content and thought I expect to finish the gestation till I get home, since that kind of existential enthralling is Not Safe For Work.

New York Halloween

Damien Vera quotes Potrait of Dorian Grey: "We're all wearing a mask; we only take it off when we're drunk, or put on another mask."

Annnd I really do like me when I'm drunk. Or behind another mask. So... Hmm. Worth contemplating.

(not that I don't like me the rest of the time, but yeah)
