May Pole-prep

Here's to a sunny May Day

A very sunny day it is today

bad sign: the practice mixed up ribbons in a way no one could explain

Hold the Rope

Some notes that one finds lying around really make you wonder.

Book and Food

From PA to MA is a loooong drive. We stopped at this Food and Book restaurant and enjoyed the atmosphere that was unabashedly and celebratorily kitschy. With every meal, you got to take a book home free.

NEFFA

So I went to this really awesome folk festival up in New England. It was so much fun and full of dancing, dancing, dancing. Why don't I have more pictures? Well, when I wasn't dancing, I was either sleeping or eating...

the contra floor was soooo crowded.

I sat out for the merry-go-round and enjoyed watching people try to figure out "swing your partner's corner's partner's corner." in time for the swing

More flowers?! yes. more flowers.

Tea

I really have little to say about these...They were simply a set of images I thought would look cool and I'm my only willing model with a compatible schedule.

Birdcage

Anna's Afghan birdcage on the steps

At the End of the Day

Uh? I liked the light?

Flowers...Can you tell it's spring?

There is this patch of these blue flowers exactly at the foot of a aged cherry tree. Just under the tree, no where else

I have a fondness for flowers that are little more than differentiated leaves...

Tree Sweaters

Part of a campus art festival, Art Club did some collaborative public art projects including the crocheting of bits of a tree sweater

Senior Row

The Senior Row cherry trees are the last to bloom every year but they coincide with the overnight appearance of the greenery on the Senior row oaks

Collaborative Art-Book

A couple of weeks ago, the Theatre department approached the artists on campus it knew about to ask for collaborative/performative art to show in conjunction with the student theater festival

My contribution was the creation of an accordion book with contributions of several photographers. Cover of turban silk.

Living Landscape (yes, it is rather meta to be taking pictures of...my pictures...)

ritual


Ariel did a performance piece about ritual

This year's collaborators

Public reception

Cherry Blossoms...some more

Every year, I'm a day too late to catch Baldwin's cherry blossoms so I made the extra effort this year...it'll be my last year to see it

White Floppy Flower Time!

I have no idea what these are called but I love them!

Not sure why this popped into my head. That's Anna's May Day'd dress (to be worn for May Day by me) and my May Hoop at the abandoned house at the top of the hill
