over at the words words words blog (Steven Burst, et al).

my thoughts…
“…performing arts do in-fact leave artifacts, in the form of tickets, costumes, playbills, reviews, sets (even when recycled), musical scores, scripts…
And in the same form, even the most theoretical science leaves behind artifacts in written discourse, published articles, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, ad infinitum.
Humanity cannot help but leave behind evidence for the future.”

feels almost like the discourse I miss from Vassar…
