Red
Welcome to Issue No. 002 of Discursives, “Red”.
I launched Discursives, an interactive and highly personal digital art project, last week with “Clouds”. Each issue is a non-linear, associative journey between waypoints that connect music, art, history, ideas, film, literature, memories. Follow digressions, or stay on the main path of the theme.

This past week, while working on "Red":
- I read Makenna Goodman’s Helen of Nowhere, which made me feel very committed to living in a city, any city; and I read “Le nu féminin en mouvement”, unlocked by The Paris Review in honour of its author, Peter Nadas, who passed away at the end of August.
- I took a Pochinko clowning workshop taught by Kendall Savage, in which we played around with how to better combine the physical and the metaphysical in performance.
- The movie Rose of Nevada is out on streaming and got really under my skin after a late-night watch.
- On repeat: “Besala Mucho” - Tamara Flores, Tourist; “Slug” - TR/ST; and “Abiotic Factors” - Patricia Wolf.
- I got to cuddle my cousin’s adorable little boys and read them a bedtime story, by far the highlight of the week, though followed closely by catching up with another cousin after a (long) year apart.
- I ate lots of local strawberries. Fitting, considering this week’s theme of red.
