street art
7 Apr
Last quarter we did blogs for the light class and one of the more interesting videos posted was this one, of some pretty complex stop-action art.
(Thanks, Susan!)
This quarter I’m taking some great classes. Alternative Processes, where we’ll be making cyanotypes, Van Dyke, palladium and gum prints, among other things. The Photo Book, which is the perfect opportunity to make a final object of the radio station photos – I’m thinking something serial and semi-informal (with a web supplement?). A projects seminar, which I’m taking as impetus to get more shooting done on the Mission stuff. Film history from 1960 onward – great excuse to watch Mulholland Drive again, though I’m not sure what to make of the fact that Groundhog’s Day is one of the recommended films, heh heh. And last, an art and science class that focuses on addressing environmental issues with art and culminates in a 2 week roadtrip to Yellowstone.
I’m also taking a beginning singing class. I’ve had this itch to sing in public for a while but the nerves are something else. We’ll see how much croaking in front of people I can withstand before imploding. God forbid I don’t hone my vocal skills in time to serenade the bison on the plain though…
Heh. We were just watching the Blu collaboration with David Ellis at work. Check it out, if you haven’t already.

Thanks – a fun watch!
