hi sandy, i'm anne and i am trying to get into your class. i'm new in
austin and got your name from diane gromela who told me to come and see
you. i'm a designer with a grad degree and have been working and teaching
graphic design for some years. i have been professionally working in
florence, amsterdam and buenos aires and taught first at calarts and the
last year and a half at ncstate. i'm gay and my personal work is all about
representation and gender. i want to be in your class because i heard a lot
about you and think i read a book you wrote for the MIT press, although not
under your name. i want to get some fresh talking, i got enough shit on me
about being gay last year and don't want to get sinical, i like to be able
to see things in perspective and be able to joke and tease both myself and
uptight behaviour around me, and be intelligent about making a point when i
open my mouth or make work.
i met my new girlfriend last year while teaching the graduates at ncstate
and lost my job over it. so we both moved to austin to start over here.
i'll be teaching in the netherlands at the jan van eyck academy this
semester in the end of september for a week and in december for a week, and
i started up design work again to get some money. meanwhile i want to find
my humor and tease back and make some personal video work and photo's,
maybe make it a publication, maybe an instalation, maybe both. to be in
your class would help me a lot to to get my humor back. i know i need to
get my administration done still and want to get into the university just
to be in your class, maybe i need some paper, i don't have the least idea
how that could go. i thought to start with talking with you would be the
best way to do this.
