Jeff Weiss, artist and long-time teacher at numerous art schools (now retired), talks about: Weisslink, the email he sends out to his list of 1800 or so readers just past midnight every night-- which features a subtractive aggregate of the latest art world activity; his Prometheus Project, which was a multi-media memorialization of the oldest living thing, a bristle cone pine tree that was cut down in the Nevada mountains; and his life in rural Vermont, where he's had a house for 30 years and has learned where and how to draw the lines with his animal (mainly beaver) neighbors.
