December 2003 - CASSETTE
TAPE ARCHIVE
April 13, 1981
The Dave and Dan Show
Daniel and David Thornberry spent a
lot of time together becoming immersed in almost any kind of creative
express, from radio-drama creations (you'll see some in future tapes),
sculpting in the snow, characterizations of people, spoofs on incidents in
life, etc.
In this tape, Daniel arrives at David
Thornberry's apartment with the cassette tape player running.
They start off playfully pretending not to be pretending.
They have a minimal-word ("you know
what I mean?") descriptions of their observations of art, what art is, the
creative process, finding a place and acceptance in the world and for what
they do, a critique of renown cartoonist of the day, the "right" to be what
you are, aspiring to creativity or fame, and on and on.
It is a total spontaneous
conversation, but very enthralling, and a worth-while philosophical
reflection on the value, process, and place of art and creativity in the
world.
Enjoy.
