I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet that Nigerian spam-scam email dude, so I can tell him that although he has been targeting Americans that might find his goofy stuff attractive on some level he needs to seriously tighten up his syntaxIt is not bigger than a bread basket. It has always been art. Multi/Interdisciplinary Media: CRT manipulation, kinetic light, analog electronic/photo synthetic sound generation, music/composition theory, acoustical foundations of music, photography, cinema, cinematography, collage, optical plastiques (from the new series, an extension of kinetic light). How long is the list? It is long.The new studio is producing, and pics are to follow. Here from the interview:"AA: Who were your influences, ‘j’?GZD: Oh, I don’t know. The usual suspects I reckon: Goivanni (1), Edward (2), Frank Lloyd (3), Paul (4), Sir Lawrence (5), Paolo (6), Roth (7), Pablo (8), a regular little boys daytime pastime’. Stuff like that. There’re so many really. Oh, and: Jordan (9), though again, they’re many here among us.AA: “Us”, ‘j’? Do you have a mouse in your pocket?GZD: That’s no “mouse”, Ms. Pulitzer. That’s: Me, Myself & I.AA: And the second ‘component’ recollection?GZD: A: square.AA: The 3rd?GZD: A: rectangle.AA: Rectangle?GZD: What were then dissected and so on, Ms. Pulitzer, so as to save you time.AA: Me? Time? In what: sense?GZD: Specific to your line of questioning is my hope.AA: Then, ‘j’, please tell me what it may mean? Circle: square, rectangle, dissection?GZD: At its: base?AA: Yes, please.GZD: Masonic Certitude. I used to think I was a special little zygote but then I was checking in with Desmond (10) as he explained the early ordering of the human mind/pattern matrix. Then I realized I was not so ‘special’ but just a human being.AA: How early were these recollections?GZD: Early indeed.AA: 5, 6, 7yrs old?GZD: Earlier than that.AA: Give me a number if you would please, ‘j’?GZD: 1.AA: Since the age of 12months you’ve known that you were a human?GZD: Yep. A being. Human being. But the grind will tear you down.AA: “The grind”? What is: the grind?GZD: Ms. Pulitzer, please.AA: Maestro, please?GZD: Neither is there a point in trying to patronize me, my darling. Though I will say it you this: that: as a practical matter, the grind will be seen as the entropy of this world, ‘the droll the dross of commerce’, time fly’ time and so forth. It all speaks to forces attempting to convince us otherwise; that we are no longer human beings.AA: “Us” again: ‘j’?GZD: Perhaps even you & I, Ms. Pulitzer.AA: What is art?GZD: On which: level?AA: This one right here.GZD: Temporal space-time?AA: Temporal space-time.GZD: While, at least in so far as we are concerned.AA: You & I, ‘j’?GZD: You & me here & now, Ms Pulitzer: art is by no-less than any other name defined as a well spring of human activity if while manifested at any one particular point in space-time: art by design transcends temporal space-time in a host of ways i.e. commercial, corporate, expressive, and imitative; where beyond, not merely imitative but: rending i.e. here: graphic, architectural, mechanical, cathartic, socio-political, religiosity, at its base trending exponentially toward metaphysical allegory in its reach & scope (O), all of which being keyed upon elements of: line, form, palette, tension-compression. Though in a: nutshell?AA: Yes.GZD: Art is a hoot!AA: What is the central theme of your work, ‘j’?GZD: Wherever possible: levity. Offering then the following: He gave the form of levity to that which ascended; to that which descended, the form of gravity. ~ Sir. W. Raleigh.AA: I see you’re a landscaper as well?Motioning toward the potted plants round & aboutGZD: Well, the Redwoods & pines I’m going to Bonsai.AA: You’re an authority on Bonsai as well?GZD: No, I would never presume. But my Uncle is. I’ll follow his lead.AA: Why so many spider plant?GZD: Lord of Mercy! Take one with you. Curtis (CK) gave me…AA: A rather large one?GZD: Yes. He said its name was: Robert Plant. All big ass: & goofy looking. But it was choking. So I told him he is now known as: Robert Planets. So take one.AA: Thank you.GZD: You’re welcome.AA: Is there anything else you’d like to say, ‘j’?GZD: Well, yes. Firstly, thanks for stopping by.AA: You’re welcome.GZD: And showing some interest in the studio.AA: Welcome again.GZD: But then I’d like to say that I’m sad to see my mo fo, Basquiat-esque (), funk soul brother: Rob Lerner, will be leaving his position as Lighting Director @ Sacramento Theatre Company/Music Circus taking up a new position in Seattle. Exciting stuff for he & his partner but we’ll miss him so there’s that.AA: “We”?GZD: The Family of Theatre People, I should mention. He & I share the same cusp.AA: Which cusp is that, ‘j’?GZD: Cancer/Leo. Thank The Goddess I reckon, for email & the Amtrak sleeper car. We owe each other a round of drinks and I intend to show up for my half of the contract, Ms Pulitzer.AA: Call me: Pixie, if you would please, ‘j’. Journalistic defense’ momentarily down by the will of grace and charm I flushed instead. A moment to which the maestro responded with an ascending levity as is his way."Did I forget to mention?
