L: Can I as you a question?

W: Ofcourse?



L: How the hell do you know how the universe is suppose to function?

We have no reason to determine how the universe works, we have a reason to determine how the universe presents itself, What sat upon a table sits upon a table that one I'll notice.


L: That stone on the table can be used to correct bones, or it can be used to build a house. It's still the same stone on the same table and that's where I stop as an artist... L: 1960 I guess the first time I thought these things I thought that an artist would've worked and worked and every once in a while came down from the mountain with their pack-on and layed out what they've one but it don't work that way.

W:How does it work?

You are in a stream of life whether you like it or not and if your going to be in the stream of life then you have to accept the responsibilities, I would liked a few more pleasures but it's just seem to be time. -Lawrence Weiner

"People look at the work and say, oh that's a feasible solution, and they use it and add their things to it and take things away - that's the point of design to move things on...."
