New Project

Hello D-
I have come to miss our correspondences and conversations. They were often a font of both creative inspiration and intellectual challenge. Though our exchange of letters has become one sided, I feel the compulsion to continue as though you are still listening. Kurt Vonnegut often says that it is much better to write for one person rather than many.  So I am creating a digital Wunderkammer of things I want to share with you. Wunderkammers, sometimes called Curiosity Cabinets, were early forerunners to the museums of today. They contained everything from works of art to medical oddities.

I have little hope that they will find you for a few reasons. Because of the last things that we said to one another. Because you do not want to be found.Because you are bright enough to turn your will into reality.

But maybe one day your face will materialize from the crowd.
