These are brief comments made during an art opening on March 2nd, 2017 at the St. Ann's School in Brooklyn. It was an opening featuring the work of Larissa Tokmakova, who was the painter who helped create ALL THE FACES OF THE MOON. They touch on the nature of art and why we hate it, future anthropology, how the perfect must be the enemy of the good, fieldstripping your AK-47 in the girl scouts, the limits of our imagination, the seduction of narrative, and how we put garbage on stage each and every day.
