19th Century Dutch Cat

from fieldnotes62 Hosted by fieldnotes62

Cat. Saturday, January 16, 2016. Valley in front of origninal site of 19th century Dutch farmhouse. Hit by a car. A cartographic record of heartbreak. Sponsored content, hip celebrities, and taking over bird sanctuaries. Bitter rambles on a bitter cold day. Our ancestors revered animals to the point that they crawled into dark caves and taught themselves how to draw and paint. Violence creates confusion. Your podcast listener is reassured by a familiar name. The totemic power of a well-designed website. Drop-down menus and cross-platform, scalable art are the Ariadne's thread to safeguard our passage thru these chaotic times. How many deaths are too many? Three seems innumerable. The hierarchy of innocence. Do animals subscribe to the "great man" theory? Self-pity in the built world. Shovels, excavations, and the relative safety of a long gone landscape.
