a war about war

Although I sometimes cringe at his take on liberal things as I see them, I appreciate Andrew Sullivan’s thought process and writing on most things political – he’s a classic ‘conservative’ (not a neo-con) and has the insight to see that his species is endangered…. He has a great article on Obama in The Atlantic [...]

Tom Moody vs MTAA

Check out the brawl in the comments at AFC. P.S. This is art-ish about not-art about art about art, if you follow. Tags: art, creative commons, news and politics, pop culture, re-blog tidbits, stimulus, uncategorical

call waterboarding torture?

Two screenings: 7:30 and 10:00, $5 [...]

New Prints, Autumn 2007

In my illness, I neglected to mention the opening of ‘New Prints’ at the International Print Center New York on Thursday. It’s too bad – I’m sure the opening, which was followed by an after-party in celebration of Art on Paper’s New Prints Review, was sure to be a blast. Still, I’m on this show [...]

SL Dublin festival

Was part of a festival / party promoting Irish tourism in Dublin SL this past weekend (weird to be dancing and partying while sick in bed, but there you are). Below is a brief video with some of my prints (and my dancing avi) featured, and below that, a scan of the Irish Times feature [...]
