Marsh Talk: The Land Of Somebody Cares

David Ford’s

THE LAND OF SOMEBODY CARES

A Practical Hermeneutics of Meaning as It Applies to the Artist

Meaning is eternal isn’t it? That’s the whole point of our hunger for meaning, right? To have something durable? In the midst of life’s compromises, contradictions, misery and unfairness? In the face of life’s trajectory?
 
Un-unh. That’s for audiences. Not for us. Not for artists. We are intimate, like a doctor and her patient. We need to know about the ins and outs on the colon of meaning. A talk for artists and the people who are interested in the development of new work.
