I’m psyched because the publish feature on Blogger has been broken for a few weeks, and I’ve not been able to get thing viewable. Seems like the tech guys have come along and fixed everything. Wheeeeeeee!

Classes have started for my final semester here at SFAI, and things are looking up in the world, there are chairs in the CDM, a New President (a bit of leadership will do the school good), and a banging room of G5’s. I’m very thankful for the improvements. Also the graduate visiting lecture series has gotten better each time it’s passed. I really think having rotating “curators” that are professors invigorates the speakers.

I just submitted my piece for the MFA catalog you can check it out it’s called Hypermodern Anaglyph in Negative Space I’m planning to have red/blue glasses inserted as well.

Future Farmers and Yerba Buena are hosting Artech at YBCA so that’s exciting. I hope to have my new Max/MSP thing going by then.

Still working on the epic trip to Africa. It would be pretty darn amazing to see ‘gers out there.

Next time, I’ve got to write down the theory of Dentistry and Depression.
