I’m collecting heinously outdated websites, like this one http://1.usa.gov/lHbk5D.
If you know any good ones, please sent them my way. And please reblog to help me on my quest.
Thanks,

NEW SINCERITY
A MANIFESTO
We are neither the divine voice nor the audience - we are the interpreters - the Shamans.
At the heart of New Sincerity is the belief that nothing original can be created completely from without. The most unique thing the artist has to offer is himself, for he is inherently different from all other people. Therefore, in order to innovate he must produce an art the every facet of which is fundamentally and apparently filtered through the self. In order to do this the artist must draw from a third place, a place of mystic origin, of Fire. A place of Fire is a realm that exists in the air around us; it is the awesome feeling of history and culture and self amalgamated that turns the man into the artist. The Shaman is one who cannot escape the Fire, who constantly feels its heat, but who learns to take the light of the Fire and create with it a constellation in his own image and in which his audience sees themselves.

Penrose tiling, after Roger Penrose, a mathematician and physicist. unlike many tiling patterns, Penrose tiling is non-periodic, which means that a shifted copy will never match the original.
the depiction of women is still idealized, simplified, and shallow, especially in counterculture.
so into quilts these days. trying to quilt all summer long.

If I did one of these it would be very different, even though we’re probably both design students.
