2) creation, 4) housekeeping

editing 3rd piece for book soundtrack.
organizing sound files, deleting redundant files, labeling.
(yesterday) finished designing association arrows for ...fence posts rotting in the acreage.... retrieved copy of book to find more connections and imagine placement but immediate impression from each page that placing such arrows would ruin all balance and work of each page. abandonment and pleased to be done with nagging feel the connections should be made explicit.

DAILY ARTIFACT LOG - GOAL

My artifacts are not stillborn or arrested in early development so much by unresolved planning or structural defects but instead are slowly pinched off by small stoppers and momentum-less days. The creative effort not lost to hemorrhage but leached off by the routine everyday droplets. The late arriving echo audience hardly privy to the daily toil that piles the artifacts for a lifetime before their immediate awareness, appraisal, and acquisition. Deadlines aid the effort but are product-bound and necessarily presume an audience / patron / publisher / distributor / and such.
