In a Former Life

Meet Your Printmaker today featured Studio Camnitzer.

Studio Camnitzer is a studio residence for artists located in the small village of Valdottavo in Tuscany, Italy; eight miles from the city of Lucca, in an 18th century farmhouse. In 2000 the studio became a centre for artist residencies after providing courses in art for nearly 25 years.



I attended one of the Studio's photoetching courses some years ago. It was a great experience. I would like to go back there one day.

Edupunk

"Enter stage left: EDUPUNK!

My next series of posts will be about what I think EDUPUNK is and the necessity for a communal vision of EdTech to fight capital’s will to power at the expense of community. I hope others will join me." Jim Groom Link

The State of The New

My new 24" imac is great. Faster, better & cooler (and quieter) than the old G4. A few teething probs — a couple of apps won't run; scanner driver needs updated, etc, etc. But overall, great. And — getting used to Leopard.

But of course, about a day after I'd got the ram upgraded & set up the new machine — Apple announces a bigger, better imac!!!!

hmph. . .
