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.

Snowiest Winter Ever!

I remember the blizzard of 96(ish?) and how I almost got lost in a snow drift and lost a boot permanently (I was also less than 4' tall.) So now I'm in the Philadelphia area...on Friday early evening-Saturday afternoon we got a blizzard that dumped over 2 feet of snow on us. That was exciting. Less than a week later, Tuesday night-ALL Wednesday, we got more snow. Enough snow to break the record! According to the news, 70.3 inches have fallen upon us with like 3.5' still on the ground. This is all fun except for the horizontal wind and the annoying East Coast habit of melting a little and then freezing into an ultra-slippery ground. No scaled photos this time, I don't have a ruler long enough.

a path!

I used to live in the dorm next to Goodhart. Behind the dorm is a giant hill just the right steepness to go "traying." So to escape the shrieks of people falling off their minuscule cafeteria trays but still enjoy the winter snow, I used to instead hang out right next door. This time...I really needed a path...there are steps under there but there was so much snow it didn't really matter.

curve

I actually dislike straight, 'clean' lines. I much prefer curves in photography, the books I make, the architecture that I admire. Here's a curve at Goodhart, accentuated by the remains of a light snowfall

Contrast

the new molded concrete squares are in the back, this is what's being added to the building. the old antique carved stone in the foreground, this is what was once the only style on the building. new v.s. old...
