    Is it possible to self-Lawler?


    tom moody / 05-16-09 / 4:19 pm

    that was me


    tom moody / 05-16-09 / 4:20 pm

    the comment was – “Is it possible to self-Lawler?”


    tom moody / 05-16-09 / 6:11 pm

    again, I will reiterate that I am tom moody and the comment was actually “Is it possible to self-Lawler?”


    tom moody / 05-16-09 / 6:11 pm

    just making sure


    tom moody / 05-16-09 / 6:12 pm

    because I am tom moody and the comment was what I said it was


    tom moody / 05-16-09 / 6:15 pm

    or, rather, “is” what I said it was


    tom moody / 05-16-09 / 6:22 pm

    Just so everyone knows that was not me, tom moody, who made the above comments. That was someone pretending to be me.

    Hi all, this is SuperCPU logged in as Tom Moody. I can’t believe Tom Moody is posting as me… is this a challenge?


    tom moody / 05-19-09 / 12:55 pm

    I like the crop called “Crop” (the top image)–such a smart, simple gesture.
    I don’t understand why the top image appears larger on the page than its actual dimensions, or why the second image down appears smaller than its actual dimensions.
    To “self-Lawler” means, roughly, to question or “deconstruct” your own place in the system by photographing your expensively produced and framed work on a museum loading dock (a la the photos of Louise Lawler).


    tom moody / 05-19-09 / 1:53 pm

    Well, shortly after I mentioned the second image–the one that was the original “boon” before the current one appeared–it disappeared from the site, Orwell-style. It wasn’t a smart, simple gesture but it was a good one. Basically it was a crop from an online article about the Arcangel photoshop print. (I think.) A kind of bad, uneven, asymmetric crop, with a little of the background showing behind the painting and some text below. It was a like a “bad boy” version of the Arcangel, which some see as bad boy itself, and others as Establishment conservative. The image invites us to imagine that someone didn’t just crop a photoshop gradient to make art with, but a photo of the photoshop print in a museum storeroom (or some other room) that was published in a blog or magazine. Then republished on a blog. Such a dumb, convoluted gesture.

    I added IP#’s to the comments, but I’m still not sure what’s going on.


    sounder2 / 05-19-09 / 5:52 pm

    hey, yeah, the coolest crop disappeared!
    Dtangler is one subversive monk;)

    To “self-Lawler” means, roughly, to question or “deconstruct” your own place in the system by photographing your carefully worded and posted comment on a museum messageboard (a la the photos of Louise Lawler).


    tom moody / 05-20-09 / 10:31 am

    Ha ha. But anyone posting carefully a worded comment on a museum messageboard has already revealed his/her place in the system.

    INFOpruner / 05-20-09 / 1:07 pm

    tom moody is not an IP


    INFOpruner / 05-20-09 / 1:09 pm

    YES tom moody is in me


    tom moody / 04-19-11 / 6:36 am

    For the record, “such a smart, simple gesture” is what one of the then-infoMonks said about Arcangel’s expensively-produced, framed color print of a Photoshop gradient.


    tom moody / 04-19-11 / 6:38 am

    that was me (2)

    Reverse mortgage balances must be paid off if the home is sold
    or if the home is transferred to heirs. Basically, they want to purchase more than what they earn. In contrast to a classic household mortgage, a reverse mortgage loan needs a
    financial institution to create payments to you.
