Author notes
I am going to have a hard time explaining what I saw in this picture, because I had to draw a picture to explain it to my son. But, I will try. I saw that you could either see the outer perimeter of a shape, or the inner perimeter. Which made me think of inside or outside the box, and the piece is named "Real TV"... which led me to think about the reality tv shows that we are now flooded with.

I like this entry a lot, it is not an easy artwork to write about. You have slapped the reader's face with a poetic, often sarcastic criticism of modern contemporary life - that's quite impressive.
At times I had the feeling it reads like a list but in it's way, this may contribute to its overall theme.
good luck,

Well done!!! I like the flow and the verbiage and the structure but what I really enjoyed was the image. I have a 60” TV and 500 some channels. I never watch the damn thing. I love movies but TV will rot your brain. I’d rather read a book or make love not necessarily in that order.
Love,
Amera
