4IOE INTRODUCTION
Four Inches Of Ego [henceforth referred to as 4IOE] contains the work of Thomas Knauer.
The primary emphasis of my work as of late has been writing. You can keep up with my writing on my blog. I try to write pretty much every day — sometimes it's art or politics, other times it might be my fascination with my toes — though occassionally the world overwhelms me and I take a bit of time off. I’d like to believe I am at least a half-decent writer, so I’d suggest giving it a read.
Otherwise, this site is a shifting compendium of my work as an artist/designer. If you are expecting to see a bundle of logos I’ve done for multinational corporations, you are in the wrong place. Most people feel more comfortable when I call myself a media artist; I am currently a little too uncertain about the categories to bother with one. I make work; I would like to think it has some academic value, some artistic value, and ideally some cultural value. Sometimes I do well, sometimes less so; but I suppose that is the nature of speaking.

After a bit of a hiatus I am
once again posting to My Four Inches Of The World
[I know there were several fruitless promises to
return, but I mean it this time]. Now that I have
arrived in Edinburgh -- the one in Scotland -- I
shall be making every effort to return to my previously
frequent blog activity of posting new work, commentaries
and criticism, images, and new fictions. Thus, dear
readers, you should follow the following link directly
to the 4IOE blog.
