Missing Nike

Unfortunately I missed the talk from Nike, it was definitely something I wanted to see... On the other hand I'm sure the reading from last week wasn't as good as the talk. As we all know and probably have done is have a compulsion to collect. This reading talks about this compulsion as well as institutional collections. I know when I was younger I felt the need to collect frogs, not real ones, but anything with frogs. The line form the reading "What we have begun to suspect is that the collection is never really initiated in order to be completed" seemed to perfectly summarize compulsive collecting for me. You never really think about it that way but it is very true that when you are collecting frogs, shoes, fiesta ware whatever you never have an end in sight.Today there are so many things people are interested in collecting, toys, figurines, comics, antiques and so on, but how many of these things do people really care about and how many people do it just to collect?
