This is ongoing, obviously as long as time allows. The number fourteen is a framework, a scheme, a dialogue and outright critique. Then again, this work can be ontological, atheistic, psychological and pragmatic; a way to make an artwork where fiction and function deals with reality via absurdity. Can something as harmless as art be dangerous? Voltaire on absurdity: \u2018those who can make you believe in absurdity, can make you commit atrocities\u2019<\/em>. Aesthetic considerations are made on familiarity, the habit of good taste, something for the non-creative. In other words aesthetics is overrated.<\/p>\n

Difference! What difference?<\/p>\n

Enough.<\/p>\n

Look and understand; these are the sticky emotions of experience.<\/p>\n
