What I’m working on…

Not my only project going on at the moment, but one of importance.

The website is going to have several stages, but due to my current schedule it will take a little bit to get it there. Eventually it will provide videos and photo galleries for each exhibition and the content will be managed by the entire gallery and not a select one (me).

Exciting and very fun! Check it out here.

New Article by Bret McCabe in this weeks CityPaper.

“The problem is that in that space between the sink and the tub where a traditional commode should be is a more upright, jet-engine-looking silvery blue contraption lined with something that distressingly looks fleshy and human. Is it a some newfangled kind of washing machine? Or a bidet on steroids?”

I thought these were legit custom foil balloons – turns out they are pillows. I would like to rest my weary head on one of these every night.

‘Home’ by Ed Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. Good morning song and very fitting for the weekend I just had.

Doreen Bolger, the Director of the BMA, has written an excellent review of the latest openings in the H&H building including Terms of Use.

My only comment – those “microphone-like objects” are most definitely not microphones.

A nice combination of WOWZA “I wish I could do that” and never-ending smarts. As usual, this all flash website can make some computers want to blow up, but Diller and Scofidio recognize the balance of wow with direct access to information with the two page views.

It’s all in the details…

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

Throughout my many years of education I’ve always been really good at the first 3/4 of everything. Entering the workforce has forced me to get really good at the last 1/4  (excuse the poor, cheap pun). The work I do requires attention to detail and after months of looking at a project the last thing you usually want to do is look at it through a microscope five more times, but alas…that’s what you do!!

About three weeks ago the back window of my car was smashed in while parked next to my apartment building. I’ve determined that this was my initiation into some sort of Baltimore religious experience. hallelujah. The next day we were pummeled with about 40 inches of snow and my car sat at the mechanic for about two and a half weeks. When I finally went to pick it up I noticed something on the back window. I walked around to the back and realized the mechanic had salvaged a window from another car and had forgotten to remove the two GIANT Christian school bumper stickers on either side of the window.

My initial reaction was to tell the guy I was Jewish, but decided to avoid any heady conversation at 7AM. I told him (annoyed) that I would be back to have them removed. He apologized for the oversight and as I drove away I realized I would just end up taking the stickers off myself because to drive all the way back there would be more annoying than playing with a razor blade and some paint thinner.
