HOARDES of Korinethians!

My follow up on the Harmony Korine lecture turns out to be a little different than originally planned...
I didn't get in!

Hundreds of Korinethians (if I may call them) filed into R.U. tonight to see the artist speak. The lecture was set to begin at 7:30 and when I arrived to scope things out at 6:15, the lineup of people waiting stretched down the lobby, into registration, past the SAC office, and onnnnwards through the main floor. By 7pm, I'm positive it would have been going back outside on the Gerrard St side.

Being alumni, I know L-72 is not that big a room, so admitting defeat and consoling myself in that I'm not a huge fan of interviewer Bruce LaBruce anyways, I headed out to get some dinner. No loss though, the lecture is already online right here.

you gave up to defeat too soon,

i showed up at 7;25 and used my street stealth to get in at 7;27 without a ticket and i scored a sweet seat.
the lecture was fun except it dragged on for 2.5 hours. harmony is a serious wierdo, and i think he was on tranquilizers of some sort.

Hey sorry for harassing you but I randomly stumbled and fell grazing my knee onto your site. I'm a university student in England doing a dissertation on Harmony Korine and I was hoping that maybe if you have any you could share some of your resourses or essays you have written or found concerning Harmony. I would be greatly appreciative of anything you could give me. Many Thanks if you've got anything or not please email me at smcdona2@hotmail.com thanks a lot!!!
