sit for some time (hours) at nearest street corner to where you
live
make a "traffic report"
sit and watch sky (or lie down to do so--or stand--whatever best,
or change positions)--again, for some time--
make "weather report
note such reports not only may entail concrete particulars--but
also memories, dreams, reflections engendered by the events observed

PS--thank you again Patricia and Allen for the beautiful job of
presentation of the timepiece i had made--
it's funny--i think the colors look brighter on the web--
they also often come out very interestingly in color xerox
(ones i have tired, not these ones)
you can make interesting works by collecting color xerox from trash
cans in the xerox copy places--and then you soak them, or parts you want
to use, with some finger nail polish remover--then rub off the colors and
things presented there--onto another sheet of paper
this is another method of what is called making "transfers"--i
first earned how to make the ones from newspaper b and w from an
interview years and years and years ago with rbt rauschenberg--for these
you use lighter fluid to soak the paper--
just be areful if you smoke! i do this and use spray paint a lot
so am always on verge of blowing myself up as seem to lose track and light
up--!
