He doesn't like the artist, because the artist is changing all the time. He doesn't trust them. He doesn't like the ethical man too much. He is always moralizing. He likes the religious man, because the religious man has only one mood. And I believe that too. I believe when my work arrives at one mood, it's as if I am praying. Which is another remark of Kafka's: art as prayer. To get closer to that thing that one is praying to.<br /> <br /> Bálint András Varga: Again, one would have to define what you mean by prayer in this context.<br /> <br /> Feldman: Prayer is getting close to that which does not exist. It is very much what I feel when I work.<br /> <br /> Varga: To attempt the impossible, really.<br /> <br /> Feldman: To attempt the impossible by concentration. Rather than looking for it.<br /> <br /> http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/53289527102http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/53289527102Tue, 18 Jun 2013 13:45:39 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/b9cdbd64d91df7e590639dd2ff15cb5f/tumblr_moadwaIbUj1qm6ttoo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52798128593http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52798128593Wed, 12 Jun 2013 12:52:49 -0400gothic<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/9746e5120d3d53039cd7df6b5cfa117b/tumblr_mke4ypjlh81rp124go1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52791164109http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52791164109Wed, 12 Jun 2013 10:47:48 -0400letrasettypographyform<iframe src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F87557094&liking=false&sharing=false&origin=tumblr" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" class="soundcloud_audio_player" width="500" height="116"></iframe><br/><br/><p>after techno, which shared DNA with disco and Information Theory. before a necessary return, a glimpse of what pure integration means, the idea of a pure music, pure in the sense that it has no subtexts, it is just what it is, crystalline, exhilarating and comforting. all are welcome at this party, it connects not to outward appearance. it is pure because it seeks to unify rather than differentiate and separate. in the same way that alchemists used to distill, combine, get rid of impurities, they did so in the hope of finding a reconciliation of opposites, and so find truth. 2 things. Do not seek divisions where there are none. Be sure the division you are looking for, is the one you find. So anyway, there are Papua New Guinea moments too, so convincing and truthful, like everything is a truth just discovered.</p>http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52370335866http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52370335866Fri, 07 Jun 2013 05:54:25 -0400laurel halotechnodiscodnapeace<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/e14f72a942e9d4ba629399e6c1b3b1e5/tumblr_mnt6hid5Zi1qa0gbwo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Laurel Halo</p>http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52082492883http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52082492883Mon, 03 Jun 2013 16:55:33 -0400Laurel Halomusic<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/94c79483c59770b94969ad8919f25df2/tumblr_mnu3l6WfZR1qh9lw8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>We build structures that rise above us and yet serve us so poorly on the ground because our real hope is to leave the ground.</p>http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52080331482http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52080331482Mon, 03 Jun 2013 16:29:30 -0400structurelightslytham st annes<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/b7f27c6bde1fa5ac33d71847316fa2c0/tumblr_mnu35qLVdo1qh9lw8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Every time I walk past this building I can’t resist taking a photo. How many do I need in order to have enough views from slightly different angles, at different times of year, day, light, to feel that I have enough source photos to make a drawing of it that will describe its essence? 10, 20, 100? There is something fundamental that can be described in the way it’s surface is both open and closed at the same time. It’s just beautiful to behold as is, without any thing else, but there is something else, something that nags me every time, that there are secrets to be revealed, answers without questions, a presence of form and function that all adds up to something magical, or at least, a sense of wonder beyond the steel and concrete structures</p>http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52079549801http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52079549801Mon, 03 Jun 2013 16:20:13 -0400architecturestructuressheffieldformwindow<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/6893ca025ab43613078746c07c2cc3de/tumblr_mnu2mumScC1qh9lw8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>It’s all relative</p>http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52078628559http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52078628559Mon, 03 Jun 2013 16:08:54 -0400relativityfree willpath<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/b765ca5c6295affe6b2f55bc0efc68cc/tumblr_mnk63qPEda1rwkrdbo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://myjetpack.tumblr.com/post/52053791051/my-new-book-of-cartoons-youre-all-just-jealous" class="tumblr_blog" target="_blank">myjetpack</a>:</p> <blockquote><div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <p>My new book of cartoons “You’re All Just Jealous of My Jetpack” is out now. <a href="http://www.tomgauld.com/index.php?/shop/jetpack/" target="_blank">Details are here</a>.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></blockquote>http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52070732726http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/52070732726Mon, 03 Jun 2013 14:18:57 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/1fd542de2e6f2a3c6ef38960ab414087/tumblr_mni6coUjyw1qh9lw8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>layer</p>http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/51549835500http://formlinedot.tumblr.com/post/51549835500Tue, 28 May 2013 05:58:00 -0400dotlineform<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/7c0819dc59e57ee99b7062d9e829fb31/tumblr_mni5dqewSZ1qh9lw8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Gorillaz - Demon Days</p> <ul class="no_style"><li><span class="role">Artwork By</span> – J.C.
