    Five More Questions

    What, if anything, have you learned from your students, and/or the process of teaching?

    What don’t you like about the art world? Are there frauds? Name names.

    “me and my work”
    “the types of work I enjoy”
    “in terms of work”
    “making work and seeing others make work”
    Why not:
    “me and my art”
    “the types of art I enjoy”
    “in terms of art”
    “making art and seeing others make art”
    Why this choice of words? Is this simply the vernacular from the “art world” that you’ve absorbed? What would Freud have to say about this? Discuss.

    Name some things that you personally “find really useful in a cultural sense.”

    Who put the ram in the ramalamadingdong?

    I’m glad I added you

    You’re interesting.

    Some thoughts:

    The downside of this is something that I find kind of widespread in the gaining scene as a whole: an adoption of the same sort of compulsive scale reading and calorie counting that exists in “diet culture” but just applied to gaining rather than losing weight. Since this is a mindset that is very easy for me to get into, I find it hard to deal with.

    Very scary, but sounds all too inevitable. Obsession over self is hard to avoid; my reaction is to be lazy from the start and eat what I want. I’ve been chubby most of my life (save for a brief period from 16 to 20 when a summer camp w/horrible food triggered a weight loss that coincided with a period of very high metabolism), but would never entertain the notion of being a gainer. It happens naturally, and my doctor is always chiding me to become svelte and mince et al like him.

    Losing, though, is very hard for me. I can’t stand diet soda, don’t believe in Atkins, and enjoy cooking.

    Also I don’t have enough tattoos.

    Now that one is SO EASY to remedy!!

    Thanks for the great answers, Nayland… I agree about the city…I dont’ think I could ever live far from a big urban center. Hopefully one of these days I’ll finally make my move to NYC. . .
