OK, so I forgot my camera and you will not be getting any images, but I can at least talk about the show. Sean Slemon really left SA with a bang! He had three successive solo shows (one at Outlet in Pretoria, then two at The | Premises in Joburg), the last of which is [...]

Well, Christo Doherty and atjoburg’s Friday Digital Soiree sessions are back at the Convent (Wits), so head on over to the (more and more active) atjoburg site for more info. New link at right for virus films – the “Official Website of Philipp Virus, Miron Zownir, Aryan Kaganof”. That last dude’s the one who puts [...]

Yep, that’s right; I’m back in Jozi. Am utterly exhausted, have a full inbox and messy desk, and forgot that I was out of commission for 2 months even before I left (from a dreadful illness), so I might not make it to see Brenton Maart’s opening over at Gallery Momo this evening; but you [...]

Man, I’m tired; mucho respect to Jonah for always blogging when on the move. I’m finding it tiresome to even do a little bit. Granted, he usually has cooler things than I to say, and is usually in places, or at conference/festivals, that have much easier net access than SA and Eastern Europe, but even [...]

I read in The Week this week about a new study of blogging that shows it’s growing by leaps and bounds. Naturally, Editory & Publisher magazine hopped up to criticize the excitement about the trend immediately. And why shouldn’t they? Blogging is a serious threat to their business interests. Not that I am either an [...]
So, I did finally make it to see some of the Prague Biennale, tho not much. It takes time to get around the city, I’m walking everywhere, and can’t help but stop and stare at beautiful things, imagining their histories. It’s even harder if you are meant to meet people, or are in groups. Some [...]
After (or was it before?) my entries yesterday (or was it the day before?), I headed across the Charles Bridge, and up to Prague Castle. My feet hurt and I was tired, and there was just too much to see. Lord (who?) knows how I managed to enjoy myself thoroughly by taking in the history [...]

I can’t believe I have finally made it to Prague. there’s so much to write, i’m not even sure where to begin – and i’d rather be taking in the city than sitting here blogging the web. Let’s see; Nicole (my better 2/3rds) and I are here for two conferences in a row, then for [...]
james web and bridget baker, just cuz they are cool I can’t believe it was just this past saturday that I left Cape Town. Yeh, it was kinda cool (I even made the front page). Admittedly, one week of workshops in Jitter is not nearly enough, but I know I lit enough of a fire [...]
