Time traveling here from today's 'sletter, but I want to state for posterity that I thiiiink that beautiful textile pattern on the cover of Music for 18 Musicians comes from the work of Beryl Korot, Reich's spouse and an all-time textile/video/software artist. I'm thinking of her piece Text and Commentary, which I had the pleasure of hanging out with on the daily while I was working for a gallery that had it on display, more details of the installation here: https://www.moma.org/collection/works/191231?artist_id=35522&page=1&sov_referrer=artist

Couldn't not share for all the textile maniacs out there (in here)!

Are you going to wear this when you lounging at home? Or do you practice the House clothes/Street Clothes divide?

The Tauba show at SFMOMA was all time. This was my first art moment I've experienced in 2 years, left me without speech and mind full of wonder.
