I am always surprised at all the things people read into my photos, but it also amuse me. that may be because i have nothing specific in mind when i'm working. my intentions are neither feminist nor political. i try to put double or multiple meanings into my photos, which might give rise to a greater variety of interpretations.

At the still point of the turning world. neither flesh nor fleshless; neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is, but neither arrest nor movement. and do not all it fixity, where past and future are gathered. neither movement from nor towards, neither ascent nor decline. except for the point, the still point, there would be no dance, and there is only the dance.

What i mean by socialism is a condition of society in which there should be neither rich nor poor, neither master nor master's man, neither idle nor overworked, neither brain­slack brain workers, nor heart­sick hand workers, in a word, in which all men would be living in equality of condition, and would manage their affairs unwastefully, and with the full consciousness that harm to one would mean harm to all - the realisation at last of the meaning of the word 'commonwealth.'

I consider myself 100 percent a feminist, at odds with the feminist establishment in america. for me the great mission of feminism is to seek the full political and legal equality of women with men. however, i disagree with many of my fellow feminists as an equal opportunity feminist, who believes that feminism should only be interested in equal rights before the law. i utterly oppose special protection for women where i think that a lot of the feminist establishment has drifted in the last 20 years.
Believe Opportunity Men
Naturally my stories are about women - i'm a woman. i don't know what the term is for men who write mostly about men. i'm not always sure what is meant by "feminist." in the beginning i used to say, well, of course i'm a feminist. but if it means that i follow a kind of feminist theory, or know anything about it, then i'm not. i think i'm a feminist as far as thinking that the experience of women is important. that is really the basis of feminism.

Believe Mean Thinking
I moved to l.a., and people said that i would never find work, that i would never find good friends, and i feel like i was fortunate enough to find the work, but it wouldn't mean anything unless i had a group of people who could appreciate it.

Giving the kids a programming environment of any sort, whether it's a tool like squeak or scratch or logo to write programs in a childish way - and i mean that in the most generous sense of the word, that is, playing with and building things - is one of the best ways to learn.
Writing Mean Kids
Instead of always asking yourself why so-and-so acts this or that way, learn to ask: "what's inside of me that wants to hurt itself over how anyone else acts?"
