Art? What Art?

Four pages in and as I was preparing my head on how to weave in the evolution of signifier of otaku interest with the view of pornography as seen from within the porn industry, I came to the sharp realization that I have not talked about my art works yet.

From there, I realized that my thesis paper doesn't have any art work to support. What I have produced is just the tip of the iceberg. In fact, my sculptural works seem to hold more weight now, unlike before, since bringing semiotics into the mix. But my main piece, the installation, has no relationship at all to the paper anymore. It was heavily based in social interaction and the lack thereof due to a fan knowledge that causes misunderstandings. Reading over my paper proves this, but looking at the piece doesn't. Hell, it doesn't even hint to a pool of cartoon knowledge exclusive to me and people like me!

It's bad enough that I typed four pages without even referencing my art, but to realize that nothing I've produce so far can be inserted in doesn't sit well with me. Despite finding the connections I did yesterday at the library.
