A quick question? In this interview, JK talks about a factory of people working to produce His stuff. They seem to work by Knowing the Kind of stuff he'd do - and by the very fact they implement that knowledge under JK's supervision and finance, the objects are His.
A question: Is it reasonable to claim that JK's factory operates according to a "JK algorithm" which procedurally generates objects that conform to that particular Algorithm's rules? Kind of going towards making an analogical link between a factory and an algorithm - in a generalised sense - hence a bit uneasy whether or not this analogy can hold water beyond a few reflective drops.... Cheers and many thanks for any hints, rebukes, etc.. :) aharonon xx On Sat, August 22, 2015 8:02 pm, none wrote: > Hiyas, > > > Might interest, a somehow curious interview with JK: > http://www.aljazeera.com/programmes/talktojazeera/2015/08/jeff-koons-high- > art-plain-extravagance-150820152940671.html > > Reminded me a recent chat I have had, with a certain Berlin based > curator, who assured in no uncertain terms: "I Know these people [rulers of > Gulf states] are despots.
