rinueHere you go: for mother's day I have made a video about Frankenstein's Monster.
It is fairly silly. It is somewhat an inside joke, not only because Frankenstien is a metaphor for motherhood but because the earliest film on which I was allowed to hold the camera instead of having to ask Dad was "Frankenstein: Man or Monster?" -- a project for 10th grade English. I mean, there are philosophical implications about the institutional memory of an art museum and the adult/child mockup that is Frankenstein, but that is probably thinking too much.
For breakfast, I met with multiple members of the Dodge family at Henk's (aka the Black Forest Bakery), a place that serves German food, German beer, and various baked goods. So I had coffee and a chocolate napoleon and several types of sausage and several types of sauerkraut and potatoes and bread with different mustards. And what I am getting at is that I will never need to eat again, although I think I would like to eat some more very soon.
