Parsons college

I have little to say about Iowa here. The state was full of distant relatives I never met. My explorations in aesthetics continued. There were no museums. The library was very limited and I had not enough sense to look there for something I had not yet found a label for. What I found were Marvel comics and Playboy. Marvel in the mid sixties was graphically adventurous. I found them delightful. Playboy was and perhaps is a designed environment for heterosexual male fantasies. Think Surrealism for exurban America. It was called porn but had about as much relation to that as Darwinism or Dirty Harry. I wish the yogi joy of the campus.
