God, Creation, and his Cosmic Tivo



I read a message on Moby's blog this a.m. (that's the musician, not the dick) about a New York Times article on a new "Creation Museum" down Bible Belt way.  I wrote a comment immediately, but I wanted to share it with you here:
(My comments) As far as I know, God doesn't live only on Earth (maybe he summers here). A "day" is such an arbitrary time designation. How long is a "day" to an eternal being whose home is the entire universe? Six days/six hundred billion year -- what does it matter to him? He has cosmic Tivo. I was just thinking this morning, riding my bike up the Hudson River Park bike path, how I'd love to get "Evolution: God's Creation" shirts printed up. Or "Evolution: Watch God's Creation Unfold"
If you take out the literal insistence on "six days," the rest of the creation myth supports evolution -- first there's a lot of light (big bang), then the bodies of the universe are separated, Earth forms, oceans and land separated, life, then human life. Finally, humans take dominion over the whole thing. Well, that's just evolution, isn't it?

Free Silkscreening at Cooper Square



This just in from Creative Time!  Sadly, I'm going to have to miss it.

La Tienda de Ropa - media collective bulbo will offer free silk-screening to redesign any article of clothing you give them.
This is a re-presentation of the project developed for insite_05 as an experimental aesthetic inquiry into the creative experience of clothing worn in the Tijuana-San Diego Border region and exploring the processes and sites involved in the production, exhibition, and consumption of clothing.

All weekend, 10am to 7pm, Cooper Triangle public park @ Cooper Union (if bad weather, the project will be moved inside).
