And fade.
Maybe everyone gets to their destination after all. Or not. Every story has an arbitrary beginning and end. Making art is really about putting limits on the infinite, about sticking pins where you want to start and where you want to finish, and hope that by marking those limits you create meaning. A storyteller is a sculptor is a winemaker is a painter.
For me, I think this might have been the most entertaining and artful and meaningful Layer Tennis match we've ever had.
Whether or not you agree, you can vote for the winner by sending a Twitter message that includes #lyt and your favorite's name with the "hash" sign in front of it. For instance: #lyt plus #shansen or #jkoxvold. The winners of both of today's matches will be announced on Monday. The Semi-Finals are next Friday.
Thanks to everybody hanging around this afternoon, and thanks especially to Jason and Scott. I certainly enjoyed the ride.
Play by play commentary for this match is provided, as it happens, by Kevin Guilfoile.

Tomorrow we continue our series of live, experimental Layer Tennis Exhibitions with a motion graphics match between Matt Smithson and Daniel Oeffinger. As usual, the action starts at 2pm Chicago time. Check the time in your area. What is unusual is that the match won't finish until next Thursday. We'll be posting two layers per weekday. We've always wondered what would happen if we gave a couple artists a lot more time to do each volley and this week we'll find out. Commentary is by Jason Koxvold, who knows a little something about LYT and mo-graf. Jason's Match Preview has been posted and so has the coin-flip.
Naz and Sam Peeling Back the Layers on last Friday's amazing photographic and musical live Layer Tennis Match. No Tennis this week by the way, we'll be back live on the 19th
