{I eM Release}
MAYWORKS ART EVENT ~ theme.. .a celebration of working class culture
To get people started�‚—some questions:
Who DOES benefit from your efforts of work and do you have say in that
matter?
-you work..sometimes you get money, perhaps at times satisfaction,
sometimes nothing in return.. ok so far?
Does the way you interact with others, whether celebrating, getting your
food, working out housing needs, activating social rights, grieving or
gardening or creating something, make the way you are required to build
a
tolerable life possible for you? Do you expect future generations to?
Would these be things
that matter to you.
What would bring you to aware of what is limiting choice and voice?

Through this gathering maybe, we can collectively contribute a little in
a concrete way towards making a world where we can all, notwithstanding
our irreducible contradictions, thrrive [not a typo]

"perfection is not creative, conformity isn't either. nor is routine.
creativity asks us, in fact to change the way we live our life, to turn
away from the 'normal' way of doing things and instead express our
individuality", SO "if you're looking at the opposite of creativity, it
is probably control. if you want to be more creative you have to take
more risks. i think that's what inhibits most people"
reach, well beyond your present grasp to achieve social justice
changes..it's imperative, [eh]
