My Current Reading List (Also an Idea for my Publication)
NOTES:
This reading list is the most current and up to date version of my current books and what I’ve been reading since studying my higher education, with hopefully even more books to come soon as with any student’s growing library, especially when you’re a hermit who pays more attention to books than you do to the current political climate. Bar submitting this as a reference list for the end of Ma I also wanted to have this prepared for my books, maybe also for my website, I liked the idea of having all my current references, philosophical, visual, scientific and speculative, all available to the audience. I only want this because I find it to be a total shame when an artist’s references aren’t totally available after their death, it means some of their greatest inspiration goes misunderstood and lacks proper context, after all, death does nothing for the ignorant expect feed their assumption monkey quick on the spoils of those who can’t defend themselves. So out of transparency and my beliefs as a studio realist, here is my current list, warts and all, the only things that could be left of are the books I haven’t read or am waiting to read once I start a PhD, then I will keep expanding on this list until I die pretty much, give the people my recipe for creativity, no matter the media, although I clearly have a love for books considering these are all physical media and bought and stored from only 2 years of actively searching and stuffing my collection like a proud rat building a den of whatever morsel can fit their hand at the time. 
Either way, and have mercy on the fact that it’s not perfectly Alphabetical yet, It will be for the books so have no worry, but this should be a good research tool for anyone who wants to read into the minutia of my work with all the detail available, it really reads as a biography of books, an elitists biography, no spaces for simpler reading for sure. It’ll look good in the books I’m working on too as I won’t be captioning my pieces so all the audience will have is a preface and a reading list, it leaves more up to them, something I really enjoy as a studios artist that I think others would enjoy more if they allowed themselves to go on a book hunt now and then.
