ritual-and-chaos:

I am the only grad student in a class of undergraduates, a contemporary art class.

I made reference to an artwork – “oh, it’s like that piece thats three feet of air above a pedastal that contains a curse or a blessing from a witch.”

I sure baffled a bunch of students, right then.

Tom Friedman, “Untitled (A Curse),” 1992

They are required to pack it for shipping with room for the curse.
