Encounter With Bruce New

Mr. Obsolete: So Mr. New, the collective has invited you to show some of your work, but you're not actually from Chicago are you?

Bruce New: No. I currently reside in the wilds of northern Kentucky with a bird.

Mr. Obsolete: What kind of bird?

Bruce New: Why does it matter?

Mr. Obsolete: Well it matters alot. I mean if you're in the woods with a pigeon that's just kind of sad. If you're in the woods with a falcon that's kind of macho. If you're in the woods with a stuffed bird, that's a little creepy.

Bruce New: It's a woodcock, if you must know.

Mr. Obsolete: Excuse me!

Bruce New: A woodcock, what, they don't have woodcocks in Chicago!

Mr. Obsolete: We really have to change the subject......so your art, you do photo montage?

Bruce New: Yes, on a mountaintop next to the sun.

Mr. Obsolete: With your bird...

Bruce New: Right.

Mr. Obsolete: Right....
