You Could, but Won’t

Why he remains: you let him, even like him. Ignore him, or boot him off your forum. He marks you each and everyone as foolish.

you could, but wont
because you are him, even though you don't like him -- those parts of you that failed early

- the corrans, salsas, tin cants, oh gees, each hoping to make a recovery.

forms of failure
-- the fear of failing
-- fear of being wrong, of error
-- the fear of being forgotten
-- the fear of having wasted
-- fear of missing out

and, being lonely. their real world surround doesn't nourish them
and as aloof, as snobby as they are, they cannot stand alone, or in isolation...

these form the basis of their limited imagery. an empty plinth, the small coffee mug industry

People go on the grand tour of a drive around frantically for two weeks photographing everything and then have it printed up as a coffee mugs and wheel covers for their RV

Photo forums are like listening to seventh graders talk about their sex weekends.

of the worst — they became aware as 10 year olds watching/listening to Jackass pranks — they grow up to become YT content producers as tho they were 50 year olds pretending they were 25 impressing 15year old self.


wiley; summary — more words isn’t more meaning. Meander makes goole hits. adds to the debris field … He makes tedious decor as he detours you into.. wait, he doesn’t detour most of his readers; they are making the same pictues for much the same reason. 

At some point even the cheerleaders become annoying


Give a Lik

the Carmel Cowboy commentary about Simic and FBI — bad memory and he makes you wrong.

A wide, shallow mis-reader of throw away press as well as posts too long. He wants to talk, which is why he can’t listen

he picks up info from local fish-wraps like the Pine Cone and East Bay Shopper. Those are the places I find his tales originated.

Carmel Cowboys riding herd over what you do, like mall cops with bad hearing.

What can be verified?

How much of this happened; what is imagined for the purpose of power over the unknowing.

Isn’t that what the ladies in short-skirts he loves to poke at are doing.

Direct for power.

What can be verified? — Goog gives us: the Simic gallery, as well as the painter of the French street scenes. Easy to mistake, since Photrio Wiley sees so many seascapes in Carmel.

“Paul Minicucci, chief consultant to the California legislature’s Joint Committee on the Arts, said that art buying is generally considered a victimless crime. ”How far can government go,” he asked, ”in issues that involve the aesthetic capability of the public?’’” 7/7/1988 NYT

“Privately, other gallery owners have said the resentment by smaller galleries is largely a matter of sour grapes. The big galleries are successful, they say, and the smaller galleries less so. “Growth and progress is not an indication of dishonesty,” one said.

Should the paint-off in France not pass the FBI’s muster, the Carmel dispute could blow into a genuine scandal. Rescheduled several times, the test is supposed to take place within two weeks. Meanwhile, Simic continues to offer Valere paintings for sale, and Valere’s agent predicted that the test will produce vindication.” 1988, La Times

In 1988, a scandal… that was dropped.

“Only one Carmel gallery has been investigated in recent years for fraud–Simic Galleries, the subject of a 1988 federal investigation following FBI suspicion that paintings allegedly done by one Paul Valere were in fact produced by several artists. The case was dropped after the gallery produced the elderly Mr. Valere in France, and he was able to paint a reasonable “Valere” under the watchful eye of a visiting FBI agent. The gallery was cleared of wrong-doing, although Valere”s dealer eventually pleaded guilty to fraud, says Monterey attorney Philip Daunt, who represented Simic in the case. “There were some discrepancies in the biography [the dealer] gave Simic,” Daunt says. But the sting remained. “ 1999, montereycoutnyweekly

What else are we cautioned to avoid… New York City Consumer protection is the alluded Wiley fear. It deals with reproductions, editions and clearly writing a provenance. I leave it as an exercise for you to check on the successful prosecutions.

his memory is based upon wide mis-readings…. which serve as evidence that his misconceptions are reality. He trys to impose on you the criteria he has used. The map he failed by. This path to your kiddie pool, where he preens as a supreme swimmer. It doesn’t matter, since he is selling stories based upon his years bent over the desk in the back-office of a soft wood, door store.


Under the ACAL, “Multiples” means “prints, photographs, positive or negative, sculpture and similar art objects produced in more than one copy and sold, offered for sale or consigned in, into or from this state for an amount in excess of one hundred dollars ($100) exclusive of any frame….” Id. at § 11.01(21).
