So they really didn't get it, but they were trying to be supportive, and I didn't want to be mean to them.
So I painted some paintings.
But basically, I was looking for a new kind of art because I felt like the media was this canvas that wasn't being fully –
implemented to its fullest potential.
Because I had this theory that an experience for me was I would see something on TV, I would go find a newspaper or a magazine article about it, then I would go get a book out of the library, and I would build this experience around this thing that I had latched onto.
Who knows how, but I started to like walking down the street and there was a poster on a pole and it said something.
I'm like, what is that about?
And then I would follow up on it.
Like, wouldn't that be cool if there was an art form or I built a pathway for people to follow up on something weird that I placed it from?
It's like, oh, there's this thing.
There's this place.
And so I remember my thesis in college was,
was I wrote a book of poems, and I made a videotape at the time, which was cutting edge.
It must have been.
Yeah, it was.
It was cutting edge, I think 1984.
It was cutting edge at the time.
I did a VHS tape.
And you would watch the tape, and then you would get clues from the book and the tape
to go at a certain place at a certain time on a certain day, and if you did, you would see the third act, which was a play of real humans, play it out in front of you as if you weren't there, and the third act happened.
