Black Mountain was a very small college that lasted only a few years but it had a huge impact on NYC/left culture

I once read:
the first day of art class [taught by someone now famous ] we were told to sit and stare at the blank page and at the end of the hour we would draw one vertical line

the author goes on to say: and ever since, I have started every drawing and painting with that line

Interesting article on .. he represents a a anti-commercialism and deep intellectual search for contact that flowered at and then was consumed, digested and shat upon by a confused lost public which is us and we are so far down the road from the place Olson was in the early 1950s. was twisted into great victory of all things and those who wanted to stop and say "Who is us anyway?" were drowned out. bigbridge.org/BB14/CraigStormo
