On 5/24/15 I started creating a new conceptual writing piece called Biography that would be a bib of all (or most) of the self-help books focused on climate change and ecology. I started this because the piece, Rise (which is quite similar), is and will be ongoing forever. Turns out this piece may be forever ongoing also.

Josh Almond working on our Dots and Lines painting

Dots and Lines Rules:
For two players. Each player picks one color of paint to use. Players take turns joining two horizontally or vertically adjacent dots by a line. A player that completes the fourth side of a square (a box) colors that box and paints another line. When all boxes have been colored, the game ends and the player who has colored more boxes wins. The title of each of the paintings will be the score from the game. The winner keeps the painting.

Each painting I lose is documented in-situ. Each painting I win I document professionally. If exhibited this project will be displayed with a combination of paintings [those which I won] and photographs of paintings [I lost].
