Photographs
I've been snapping images that confront/assault us
in public spaces--here are a few
How irrelevant they seem to me
in relation to the lives of the real people I know
Maybe some folks are hording gold
but they don't tell me
Is this You now?
Ted Talks
Caught my rapt attention for thirty minutes:
What Do Babies and Children Think?
"Babies and young children are like the R&D
(research and development) division of the human species."

Research explores the sophisticated intelligence-gathering
and decision-making that babies are really doing when they play.

Performance art can be any situation that involves four basic elements:
time, space, the performer's body, and a relationship between performer and audience. In this unique and thought-provoking performance experience,
using the dimensions of his body as measure, Orrico references geometry, biomechanics, endurance, and ideas represented by da Vinci's Vitruvian Man.

i am amazed over and over
the images in public spaces always fascinate me. I have gleaned so much inspiration in terms of color, shape, design, words, etc. that transforms into something I will use in my art. may not be the intent of the advertiser but it's out there and I can't help but be inspired.
Thanks for this...the What Babies Think was most excellent!
