9. Questions
• What do you say to people who claim the way you
express yourself is crass, dumb and simplistic?

10. • Well duh.
They're right of course. Most of
this stuff is designed to be
viewed from a moving vehicle.

11. • Can you donate a picture for my
charity auction?

12. • What are you? Blind? In which case
maybe. I mostly support projects
working to restore sight and
prevent eye disease. Or as I like
to call it expanding the market.

13. Flaneur
• “An idle man strolling around town”
• Susan Sontag: “the voyeuristic stroller who
discovers the city as a landscape of
voluptuous extremes. Adept of the joys of
watching, connoisseur of empathy, the flâneur
finds the world picturesque.” (pg. 55)
