It's great right now. I'm taking a much needed fishing excursion to Iceland this month and the summer has been a very profitable one for the fund. We've signed on three new investors, two of which are whales, and we're constantly growing. We just hit the $200 million dollar mark in capital under management last week too.
How are your lives going this summer?

not so good. i am having a terrible time trying to get any galleries to take my work seriously (or call back). i am questioning whether being persistent is the way to go or whether i should take a hint and quit trying to pursue this.
people are dying -- what would you have me do, hedge?

I'm selling a lot of stupid (yet profitable stuff) on eBay, which sort of makes me feel like Gordon Gekko. Or hedge.

What are you flogging emukid? What kind of work do you do and where do you live?
- i am trying to do this video installation based on a short film i am working on. i am also trying to exhibit a picture book in a rather large format -- where the audience experience the story on a large wall instead of reading it in a bookemukid

- hmm. nope. don't know anyone there. worth a shot!brains
- the idea of a giant book is pretty coolDr_Rand
- if you have giant eyes.Jnr_Madison
- thanks jnr. i now know i am worthless.emukid
- Galleries are a tough cookie to crack man. Keep trying. Have you done any solo shows otherwise? In independent galleries?brains
- galleries and the like?brains
- its a very exclusive clique. most of the galleries here are small and independent (and crappy). they enjoy beingemukid
- a venue for just their friends. i can't even get any of them to call me back. but that's okay, i am used to being rejected.emukid
- Yeah, I know exactly what that's like. I've made my way in, but I still refuse to subscribe to that way of living. (the Clique's)brains
- It's hard because being part of the community, and a non-participator generates disdain in some other artists.brains
- sounds like a great idea emu. take a trip to denver, there are many indie galleries that would like that kinda stuff
