MIRANDA JULY ('YOU KNOW THE PASSWORD, JUST CLEAR YOUR MIND AND LOOK WITHIN. IT WILL PROBABLY BE THE FIRST WORD THAT YOU THINK OF.) (WE WENT WITH 'HELMET'.)
Despite her helmet hair, Miranda July has featured in more than 100,000 sexual submission fantasies (according to the ABS). So, of course, when she tells people to do stuff, they get into it in a big way. What stuff? Um, documenting their bald spots, sculpting a bust of Steve, etc.
LEARNING TO LOVE YOU MORE is a web site and series of exhibitions of work made by the general public in response to 'assignments' given by July and her friend Harrell Fletcher. As of last September, it's also a book, which you can buy here.
Do you - like the Oliver family of Seattle - want Miranda July to pay attention to you? Then start at assignment #68 ('feel the news') and start learnin' to be lovin'. They might put you and your bust of Steve in the next edition.

About
TwoThousand is a subcultural guide to Sydney, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Sydney writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence TwoThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
