special topics in calamity research

1) since i previously posted about Andy Goldsworthy, he was the first thing that came to mind. i'd be interested to learn about his motivation for creating art, and how he started with his particular style.

2) i've been listening to this song named "swans" by a band named unkle bob lately. (unkle bob is a super lame name for a band, but whatever). i'm guessing it would be really hard to find information on it, but it would be interesting to me to find out the history of swans in society, the symbolism of them, and why they have the symbolism they do.

3) i really like e.e. cummings, and i've heard his style described as "avant-garde." i wouldn't mind reading more about avant-garde poetry and learning about the history, style, etc.


i may end up doing something completely unrelated to any of these topics, so we'll see.
