T56 - Time Effect

This project involves making one modest piece a day.

This series began in 2005, with this run-on statement of intention:

Because of a romantic attachment to such ideas as a strong work ethic, the myth of the artist, daily practice, chopping wood, carrying water, etc., and following a desire to continuously make work, to avoid getting stuck, and maintain a belief in a quick aesthetic, as well as an observation that making bad work is better than making no work, and that most artistic attempts end in failure so a quantity is necessary for success, the following will be done:
I will produce one piece a day, starting today and continuing for at least one year, which will be collected and documented as a piece unto itself, which will be referred to as T56 and each day's piece will be referred to as T56 followed by the date, which will follow any number of aesthetics or ideas, which may contain seeds for larger, more ambitious pieces, but where each day’s piece will be complete unto itself, i.e. will be a completed work, something I would stand by.

Daily Project for January 26th, 2016. A self contained minimalist ascii artwork. After working with these for most of the month, I've decided to reduce the parameters to a 16 x 16 grid. This is my first attempt to define a text grid that is a perfect square.
