westlake / bad news 3, THE END



     ... Dortmunder remembered various moments with Arnie Albright over the years, like the time [...] he explained, "I know what a scumbag I am. People in this town, they call a restaurant, before they make the reservation, they say, "'Is Arnie Albright gonna be there?' "

grafffiti B/W & B/W and RED





sharp sharp johannesburg 4 an offshoot andrew putter





this text appears under the video on youTube but it's worth pointing it out by adding it here too

This is the video component of a video-installation I made - called 'Secretly I Will Love You More.' It shows Maria van Riebeeck - a 17th century Dutch woman at the Cape of Good Hope. Maria is on record as having taken a 'Hottentot' (Khoikhoi) girl - Krotoa - into her home for a few years. Between 1652 and 1720, the Cape Dutch almost completely destroyed the indigenous Cape Khoikhoi. This artwork of mine imagines that Maria had so loved Krotoa, that she had learnt to speak Krotoa's language. In the lullaby I wrote for the work - translated by Pedro Dausab into the click-filled Nama language that would have sounded a bit like the now-extinct Khoikhoi spoken at the Cape 300 years ago - Maria sings of her love for the child Krotoa. At one stage she sings: 'I will love you as I love my own children: secretly I will love you more...' This work won the Spier Contemporary Award in 2007.

     "There's a New York firm I use all the time," Fitzroy told him. "It's Feinberg, Kleinberg, Rhineberg, Steinberg, Weinberg & Klatsch, but it's known as Feinberg."
     Andy said, "I'd know it as Klatsch."
     "Yes, you would," Fitzroy agreed. "But the legal profession lacks your delicate sense of humor."

     ... He turned to Welles and said, "Which company you work for?"
     "My firm," he answered, "is Holliman, Sherman, Beiderman, Tallyman & Funk. You wouldn't be able to use us of course." 
     "I know," she said, "that's why i wanted to ask."

westlake / bad news 1

    

Irwin, the new one, was as scraggly as Fitzroy was plump, and no more appetizing.
     Dortmunder said to Kelp, "Do you have the Voyager key?"
     Kelp held up his left hand, to show a chain with a car key dangling from it. "Yes..." he said, and tossed the key over the rail, "... and no."
     "No!" cried Irwin.
     "Too late," Kelp told him.

     Tiny Bulcher is another matter. A man mountain, with a body like an oil truck and a head like an unexploded bomb, he mostly looked like a fairy tale character that eats villages. "Hello, there, Kelp," this creature rumbled.
