Oh so busy.

In lieu of an actual post, I will direct readers to a review of the show currently up at the gallery. Here you go.

ScienceBlogs Select has a wonderful (tragic? amusing?) pseudo-employment ad that tells you everything you wish you didn't already know about searching for a job in academia. Read, giggle, and weep.

Holy smoke - this is an amazing feeling: I'm actually HOME. At THIS HOUR.

I'm home this early, despite having worked at the gallery, done a site visit with an artist at school, and a studio visit with another artist.

The fact that we had anyone come out to see the show at all, given that it is between ( Read more... )

Please join X-Project for the opening reception of Amandine Drouet's installation Variation in White from 5pm - 7pm on Thursday, August 7th.

When beholding the tranquil beauty and brilliancy of the ocean's skin, one forgets the tiger heart that pants beneath it; and would not willingly remember that this velvet paw but conceals a remorseless fang ( Read more... )

I am a heavy consumer of nonfiction. As such, it ought to be no surprise that Stuff White People Like is tops on my list of "required" recreational reading. Well, tops enough that I might check it once a month, which is saying something, when you consider what little time I allow myself for recreational reading. Bits of the blog are not entirely ( Read more... )
