jacques-cousteau

so i just logged on again after completely forgetting about DA for forever and a half haha my last journal entry was so fucking pretentious, its brilliant i love how DA doesn't let me critique others' work without getting a membership, too bad im too poor and heroin-addicted to spend money on this i really would like to critique work in order to hone my skills as a critic and to develop my own aesthetic theory previously i said that my views on art are based on wilde as well as derrida, this is pretty much a contradiction and I would not say that theyre more influenced by post-structuralism and particularly the frankfurt school philosophe
