URBAN TUMBLEWEEDS
I have these memories of seeing balls of cassette tape tape rolling around parking lots and on sidewalks. Clearly these aren't recent memories, but they're something that I can't shake right now. I went to the thrift store a couple of weeks ago to buy some tapes to see what I could do with them. I've tried glueing the magnetic strip to some canvas. I'm not sure if I like that yet, but I did pull out a whole cassette's worth of tape and make my own tape ball. It's hanging on the wall right now. It's floppy and makes a nice rustling noise like a cheerleader pom pom. I drew it a few times this weekend and then layered the drawings in photo shop. Maybe nothing else will come of this, but it's just something I'm thinking about right now.

SUNDAY MORNING
I take pictures with my memory when I drive around. This morning I went out and collected some of them. These are mostly things that I find interesting, and I'll post the rest of them this week.
I like looking for the LIME tag. This one is from a building wall downtown. I've found a few others, mostly in the North Knox / Downtown area, but have seen one as far west as Middlebrook Pike.
