Samurai Birthday Question; Gutai School Answer 059 -- 1986 A student asks a birthday question, inviting the attention of the teacher... On this occasion the question has to do with the relationship between dying to organic primate life and bringing the creation to life. During the course of Mr. Gold's answer in which he describes the problems of a newly-awakened creation, criticism is leveled at the student's motivation in asking an impertinent question. The talk culminates in an answer of real value to the student's present work, having to do with the source and purpose of Mr. Gold's art and the production of emitting work artifacts.
