A quote for October 2025.

With AI leading humanity toward the exit by our elbows, the internet’s bottomlessly banal offerings ironing our collective and respective experiences into a rigid scroll, keeping a laser-focus on our language and its built-in and combinatoric prevarications is of the essence. Art concerns particularities of human existence framed by the big picture, but the picture has swallowed the frame.
