Rider Project

in new york in september...i'm in this show.

strange man

HEre is a wonderfully creepy and strange man. I am so interested in this intersection of science and magic and this guy seems to fit the bill along with F. A. Mesmer. What'da ya think?

"real" creepy

The artist's name is Ron Mueck. And his sculptures have the same sticky feeling that his last name does. Definitely creepy. But I kept thinking about them so I thought I'd go ahead and post it.

show at riv museum

I saw that there's a show about abstraction in the last 1/2 of the 20th c. at the Riverside Art Museum. Might be nice to see for those of you out that way...

Family photographs themselves every year since 1976

On June 17th, every year, the family goes through a private ritual: "we photograph ourselves to stop a fleeting moment, the arrow of time passing by."

I love looking at this family change over time. Tim and I have to do this.

white diamond

I love what this guy is doing. He's really experimenting with curatorial space. It's a very thoughtful "doing" and not just discussing the notion of the experiment.

The Long Tail

http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.10/tail.html

This article from a few years ago seems to be all the buzz in the tech community. The author just published a book on the idea. It's a new economic model for commerce in the digital age. The idea is that there is just as much profit in selling small quantities of lots of items rather than selling huge quantities of a few items.

They Rule

It's a really interesting site that shows the connections between people and companies.

http://www.theyrule.net

I went into the menu that says "Load Maps." Then I chose "Popular" for a premade map. I liked a lot of them. The Haliburton and the Media was interesting. So was Apple vs. Microsoft and 2004 election party supporters.

A few tips on this site: The scroll bars are in gray along the sides within the window. Right click (or Control Click for Macs) on people and tables to see more. Like other affiliations.

Interesting.

Two websites that are about losing weight and are visually interesting.
