my latin fuk up

based on a recent enquiry from my mate ashlee in melbourne http://dankmonster.blogspot.com/ as to the meaning of ''et arcadia ergo sum'' | the pretentious & inaccessible title of this blog | well pretentious & inaccessible for everyone else but me | i hopped onto wikipedia to confirm & re-acquaint myself of the ''arcadian'' implications of this latin expression ...which was my desire to choose it in the first place http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Et_in_Arcadia_ego

schlock! horror! ... i have misquoted the expression! | in fact i have left out 1 word for the latin to make sense | so this is global virtual web2 humiliation on a planetary scale ... for those who care | probably only myself on a cool sunny tuesday in mid autumn on this island at the bottom of the planet | the expression should say "et in arcadia ergo sum" & was originally based, title-wise, on Nicolas Poussin's particularly tedious painting in the Musee Louvre of a similar title

the pathetic issue for me is that this is also the title of a 6 metre textile & sculptural installation i created in 2006 for a touring exhibition that has only just finished touring in february 2008! | oh the shame, the humiliation, the credibility issues, the integrity, the critics! http://flickr.com/photos/gwcc64/sets/72157601424272907/

as my man douglas would say "whatever!"
