More of My Opinion… September 10, 2007

So when it rains it pours…I’m jacking my schedule up into the busy part of my year, at the same time as I’m up to my eyeballs in paid writing gigs. Which is absolutely awesome, but it means any chances of me writing about my continued misadventures in getting in shape are being thwarted by all these people who are actually paying me for my opinion.

Here in Portland, in what passes for the art world, the contemporary art museum (PICA) does an annual “Time-Based Art” festival (TBA) which is alternately cool, mind-bending and just plain strange. This year, the Mercury is doing a blog of the event, to keep pace with the daily performances. I’m working on it and just saw my first show last night. Since it’s a blog, the subjects may change by the time you get to it. But for now, here’s the incredibly Belgian show I saw last night: Map Me.
