Facelifts and Feedback

I decided to ditch the eclipse blogger template theme, and embrace the new template design tools. Yes- I am aware of the fact that my pages (contact,media,photo) are missing at this time. This is partially due to my unresolved issues with various addons and widgets as I attempt to embed them. I'm also not entirely pleased with the background image. I would also like to point out that I'm not even at home right now. Be that as it may I'm considering the following backgrounds (from my mobile HD). Let me know which one you like.

Tried to get cute with cookies, containers and javascript


But I got it anyways. With all due respect to the artist, I am merely creating an alternative resource link so that I may properly bookmark and tag the image above as a favorite on ViSualize.us . I would like to acknowledge how from this single image; fit, form and function achieve balance. And it's simple, cool and I would even speculate would cost you about $100. And I believe that the interior designer should get street cred.

Music video with a whole school as the instrument

Ben Meyers is a 17-year-old who spent a month putting together this video that combines improvised percussion—done on the lockers, doors and other various parts of his school—with piano and xylophone melodies. It's all played by him, recorded separately and edited together in the video. Wired's Steve Silberman tells me that young Ben is off to the Berklee College of Music in the fall. Congrats!

Where I am, and

y o u h a v e b e e n h e r e s o m e t i m e: photography

i still believe that today is the day, even though isaac hasn't updated his browser (which is not my fault), and I have'nt sent Nandi that email i promised him this morning and i really need to take a more active role in Phylean's party planning committe; I'm doing something else. This isn't it. This post is part of the 10 other things I'm not doing and did not appear on any ToDo list.  I seem to have drifted off...and then i hear the rain as it falls on wood, concrete, glass and brick (not in that order or at the same time which i find comforting in a way that i can't tell you about). The police siren, a woman's laughter, the scampering of small dog that doesn't bark and may in fact be blind, are close by, still unseen. I 'm going to answer the phone, because i'm a professional and even though it is my friend calling to bum a ride. I begin to snap out of it, and share the work of this artist and encourage you to visit his site. In the meantime I'm going to get started on....[thought: replace activity with accomplishment] ...make a call.

David Maisel’s large-scaled, otherworldly photographs chronicle the complex relationships between natural systems and human intervention, piecing together the fractured logic that informs them both.

Maisel’s aerial images of environmentally impacted sites explore the aesthetics and politics of open pit mines, clear-cut forests, and zones of water reclamation, framing the issues of contemporary landscape with equal measures of documentation and metaphor. As Leah Ollman states in the Los Angeles Times, “Maisel’s work over the past two decades has argued for an expanded definition of beauty, one that bypasses glamour to encompass the damaged, the transmuted, the decomposed.”
