Salon excerpt #3 - On Cornell and Chambers

Salon excerpts on Jack Chambers and Joseph Cornell

Part of a longer discussion after screening Jack Chambers’ R34 and some Joseph Cornell films. The conversation at this juncture was about the relative value of knowing some background information (biographical, references, annotations, backstories, etc.) on the artist and/or the work in order to access meaning in the arts.

About

MUSINGS is a home for thoughts, inklings, daydreams, opinions, essays, journal entries, photos, clips, links, announcements, and, well…musings—on anything that comes to mind, as we say. Somewhere between a blog, a diary, a received and noted section, an editorial page, a notebook —or just some random thoughts I want to share, apropos of nothing in particular. This will be the most active, “live” part of the site, one that will be changing and evolving as the clouds pass by…A book of days.

Mutterings to myself, mostly, wondering if anyone out there hears a bell ring every now and then.
