Potato Essay: The fear of missing out?
Recently I’ve watched a video essay by one of my YouTubers of choice - Jacob Geller. In his video he talks about art that was made for no one.[1] One of the art works he mentions is a creation by Michael Heizer that took a lot of effort, cost a lot of money and is accessible to general public in a harshly restricted way. It also changed a great part of the natural landscape of the Nevada desert, where this artwork - City - is placed.
The reflection about the impact of Heizer’s works on the environment and also the politics of human handling of it stuck with me. Heizer often takes some natural resources to create he’s pieces, and that in huge amounts. For Levitated Mass, displayed in Los Angeles County Museum of Art, displaced a 340-ton boulder from Stone Valley Quarry to LA.[2] For Double Negative, a work one can see in the Nevada desert, he displaced 244.000 tons of natural material to create a void space in a piece of a rock.[3]
I could go on in my research. I could read up on his hubris and ego. I could look up the private donors who made those and other creations possible. I could jump down the rabbit whole of papers on the relationship between mankind and nature and capitalism and exploitation and …
But I’m on a train for a weekend get away. I like traveling by train. The soft rocking of the vehicle while passing through outskirts and woods and fields. I’d rather look out a window than concentrate on the screen of my phone, while I write this. I don’t want to miss what’s outside the window. I don’t want to run out of time to research Michael Heizers Art and the politics behind it.

The pentagon doesn't understand. They think they can fight fire with fire. They think they can counter a numerical superiority with drones. But the drones can't see past the veils of reality. They can't feel the tension in the air, and in madman's mind. Machines never understand the way politics and number games blend together. It's a complex existential battle of ideology and power - one that drones can never understand.

My wife Mariena as seen through a small arch in Cathedral Gorge, Nevada. The landscape here reveals the immensity of the passing of time, formation and erosion. We are but a momentary shadow.
Image taken with a DIY pinhole on Ilford photo paper. Exposure time about 12 seconds.

These views are on fire! 🔥 Taken with my favorite camera and lens: Sony a7 III and my Sony 24-70mm f2.8 G Master.
This lens is great for a few reasons: I can capture wide landscapes, I can zoom in and get tighter shots, it's super sharp, and it's fast! The perfect versatile lens for my travel and landscape work, as well as in my studio for product photography.
📷: Sony Alpha a7 III | 24-70mm f2.8 GM | 1/200 sec | f10 | ISO 100 |
