Joseph Heller May 1, 1923 - December 12, 1999

[…]

It’s notable that May 1, 1923, was the birthday of the satire writer Joseph Heller, whose dark comic classic, "Catch-22," was published in October 1961, and it immediately caught the attention of disaffected and alienated budding baby boomers.

I read the book in the 1960s, and recall the bizarre antics of his main character, Army Air Corps Capt. John Yossarian.

(While stationed as a B-25 bombardier in Italy during World War II, Yossarian is concerned that people in the war are trying to kill him, and that his commanding officers are more dangerous than the enemy. To combat this concern, Yossarian "decided to live forever or die in the attempt.")

In 1961, "Catch-22" introduced society to the concept of the theater of the absurd -- perhaps best characterized by the leadership of politicians, bureaucracy of government, and the world of customer service of mega-banks and the telecommunications industry.

How true, in history and in the present. Sometimes it does indeed seem that no matter the choices between the impossible and the improbable, a negative outcome is sure to be the result… http://www.explorecarroll.com/community/5382/may-brings-pointy-shoe-thief-vocal-love-joseph-heller/

Anchorage Daily News: Someone else's discarded paint can be on your walls - by MIKE DUNHAM

Someone else's discarded paint can be on your walls


RECYCLING: Performance artists prove you can cheaply redecorate.



Published: April 30th, 2011


John Perez, a technician at the hazardous waste facility at the Anchorage Landfill, collects discarded latex and water-based paint. Drums of that paint will be solidified with bentonite before being disposed of in the landfill. The hazardous waste facility also operates a paint reuse program there and at the Central Transfer Station in Anchorage.

Charles Oakley and Jorge C. Bailey are "spray can artists." You may have seen them at the Saturday Market, Alaska State Fair, Three Barons Fair and other venues. In what they describe as "performances," they create detailed pictures of mountains, whales, guitars, planets and such -- all in roughly eight minutes.

And they do most of it with paint that someone else has thrown away.

"About 60 percent of our art uses recycled paint," said Bailey.

The artists appreciate the eco-friendly aspect of their medium. And they like the fact that they get it for free through the Municipality of Anchorage Hazardous Waste Reuse Program.

So can anyone else.

The program, contracted to Emerald Alaska, a branch of Seattle-based Emerald Services, gives away orphaned paint and more at the Anchorage Regional Landfill near Eagle River and the Central Transfer Station near the Old Seward Highway and International Airport Road.
