999 DAYS : Russell Higgs URBAN BARBARIAN

A culture's power structure depends largely on how we look and how we are looked at. Citizen Higgs clocks in, day after day after day.

For nearly 3 years I created a Fresh Self Portrait Every Single Day. It is fundamentally a project about Being and Time. The featured 999 days are from 3 Sept 2006 to 29 May 2009.

... last year I asked the Guggenheim if they'd have a word with Google and get the swastika video removed. It used to be prominently positioned in the right hand column. And it WAS promptly removed. But now, despite the swastika continuing to be absent from the right hand column, I discover it is newly positioned extremely prominently on screen right after my video has finished.

To call this a project of Being and Time is equivocal to me taking a dump being a project of matter and energy.
