This blog is about art and light and random stuff I see on the side of the freeway and probably some weird science and math and trivia I come up with from too much reading.

The blog gets its name from a thingamajigger claes oldenburg wrote in 1961 called “i am for an art.”

“I am for the art of things lost or thrown away, coming home from school. I am for the art of cock-and-ball trees and flying cows and the noise of rectangles and squares. I am for the art of crayons and weak grey pencil-lead, and grainy wash and sticky oil paint, and the art of windshield wipers and the art of the finger on a cold window, on dusty steel or in the bubbles on the sides of a bathtub.”

The whole essay is longer but equally incredible – you can read it here.
