Also seen at the PS1 Book Fair… this message brought to you by J-Morrison seen at the Cheryl Foundation booth. I noticed it printed on a flag but it is equally effective, printed on a paper towel, as a reminder of the mess that Ronald Reagan has left for us to clean up…

… I’m just sayin’

Where the hell have I been? Oddly, I don’t actually make it into stores very often but I did make it to the book fair at PS1 last Sunday where I discovered that ACT UP and Opening Ceremony have teamed up for a worthwhile fundraiser. The drive has been in effect since June and there are still buttons and t-shirts available for 2 and 50 US dollars respectively including this Opening Ceremony exclusive featuring “the four questions”. Read the fine print…

”

do you resent people with aids?

do you trust hiv-negatives?

have you given up hope for a cure?

when was the last time you cried?

Big Shout OUT to the legendary Larry Kramer for instigating one bad ass pack back in ’87 and props to Brigette Nicole for initiating the re connect and stackin’ chips for the soldiers.

ACT UP meets at the LGBT Center every 1st and 3rd Monday of every month. 208 West 13th street – NYC.

RIP Steve Michael.

One of the most fascinating video to this day.

It is not the first time we post about Autumn’s work. It must be a good sign.

Below, an excerpt from a 1968 San Diego KPBS-TV documentary called The Music of Harry Partch where he shows off his instruments and gives a performance of Daphne of the Dunes.

Have a look at his website as well as the one of NewBand, which received custodianship of the original Harry Partch Instrument Collection in 1990.
