The Comfort Zone By DavisMcDavis

Interests: Sexy Jake Shears. I think it's good for a man to have a hobby, and Jake Shears is my hobby. I also like making soap and painting, preferably while listening to the Scissor Sisters. Expertise: Warholiana, Bernhardeliana, Sedarisata (both David and Amy), and Queen Amidaliana, Jake Shears-iana, and other similar party trivialities and banter. My Xanga blog (http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=davismcdavis) doesn't Google very well so I'm trying to post things here also. Why not?

The Crackers

Talk amongst yourselves - I'll give you a topic. Look at this photograph (don't worry, it's not dirty). Consider this: art must be remade in the form of snack food in order to be more "digestible" and therefore understood by the typical American.


Does this relate to the American problem of obesity? Is art more or less of a commodity when it is made into a tote bag? Why or why not? Is that ugly tie I got in high school with Van Gogh's Irises on it considered camp, kitsch, or crap? Are those three categories mutually exclusive? Discuss.
