Video documentation of a performance piece by my friend Nate Kassel who rode around on his bike slapping high-fives to people who were trying to hail taxi cabs in NYC. Enjoy!
"A strange thing happened yesterday. I left my sister's house with a turd in my trunk. Not just any turd, though, but my own baby turd. I say ‘baby’ because when I saved it from drowning in my sister's flooded toilet, I cradled the slimy thing in my bare palm for a good 30 seconds, realizing as I did that it appeared to have a little face. Maybe it was the soft lighting in my sister’s bathroom that created that illusion. But the way the shadows fell upon her there in my hand, I swore I saw what looked like two little eyes, a dent of a nose, and a crooked crease of a mouth. A sweet face that seemed to be smiling up at me."
