LA Times: It's been just eight days since rising art star Jeremy Blake was seen wandering into the ocean off New York's Rockaway Beach -- presumably to his death -- a week after he discovered that his blogger-filmmaker girlfriend, Theresa Duncan, had taken her life in their East Village apartment.

    • I just now read about this. He did the artwork for P.T. Anderson's Punch-Drunk Love. This is so incredibly sad. Apparently before their suicides Blake was preparing to file a lawsuit against Scientologists, claiming they were following and harrassing Blake and his girlfriend. Her blog (http://theresalduncan.typepad.com/) is pretty interesting; Glenn O'Brien of T.V. Party (the guy who interviewed Klaus Nomi and Jean-Michel Basquiat) wrote her eulogy and it's at the top of the blog.

      :(
