"Shock is good"
- Marcel Duchamp

The shock of 1913:
Suffragettes in NYC, Coco Chanel's cutting of corset laces, Igor Stravinsky's atonal compositions, Kasimir Malevich's Woman with Pails: Dynamic Arrangement

If the changes happening in my life are any indication, 2013 is going to be an incredible year.
