- Worldlines from Jim Farber: I'LL TAKE YOU THERE! ▶
Jim Farber is within worldlined steps of artists around the planet, in reach of everybody everywhere per the same seemingly miraculous small-world principle which dictates that there are between most human beings on earth 6 or fewer degrees of separation.
The MO: 1) Create categories per those in CURATION CATEGORIES up top 2) Touch category crosses of others (visible when logged in) to recommend 3) Recommended appear in your I'LL TAKE YOU THERE window 4) You appear as curator on pages of your recommended 5) Other artists may recommend your categories
We founded this matrix in the fertile, fecund and atavistic ground zero of Bahia — mindful that when all artists can be steps away, the Brazilians (some — in common with many other artists in many other places — no less brilliant for their obscurity) can be too.
ma·trix /ˈmātriks - originally "source", from "mater", Latin for "mother". We're real mothers for ya!
