You can't show me a sentence, word, or phoneme that is meaningless; by its nature, language is packed with meaning and emotion.

If you work on something a little bit every day, you end up with something that is massive.

I think that writers often try too hard in the name of expression, when often it's just a matter of reframing what's around you or republishing a preexisting text into a new environment that makes for a successful work.

Language is material to shape and mold, not only a transparent or invisible medium for communication, business contracts, or telling stories.

It's not plagiarism in the digital age -- it's repurposing.

Art used to make me see the world differently, think about things in a new way - it rarely does that for me anymore, but technology does that for me on a daily basis.

For me, Twitter is a public persona. It's UbuWeb or Kenneth Goldsmith (as opposed to Kenny Goldsmith). I don't interact. It's a lousy form for conversation and opinion (what can you really say in 140 characters?), but a wonderful propaganda and sloganeering tool. I use it as a one-way street.
