5. “An existing object, by recreating the maker, itself necessitates a new act of objectified projection: the human being, troubled by weight, creates a chair; the chair recreates him to be weightless; and now he projects this new weightless self into new objects, the image of an angel, the design for a flying machine”.

11. When I first joined The Crew I smoked 7 or 8 grams a day... 7 or 8 grams a day!?!? Yeah (laughs). And then - of course, you know, people in The Crew were told I smoked hash. But they didn’t know how much I smoked. And then one person started to pick on me in particular, you know, every time I had been smoking she blamed me. And you know, she really picked on me for smoking hash. Only, the problem was, she didn’t know I had reduced my consumption so much, you know, and what happened was we fought each other, in fact we were two opposing groups. Those who defended me, and those who objected to my smoking. But then, now we’ve got it straightened out - that is, I can decide for myself what I want to do… after all, that’s what The Crew is all about Interview with NN, age 19, for evaluation of The Crew in 1994
