isea conference co-director..new essay...quirky weather..







Sorry for not posting in a while.



I am now a co director for ISEA 2011 Istanbul as well as an editor. Been working on this , the exhibition for LEA with buckminster fuller and the amazing group of artists, working on a new weather collaboration with Jason Nelson, writing new fiction and looking for teaching gigs. Been busy.

It snowed here yesterday! I am in Studio City/North Hollywood so that is very rare. It first hailed for several hours from small low clouds then turned to soft hail or graupel and then the last burst came as soft snow. Was amazing to see it gather on palm fronds.

Happy to report that my latest essay has been published by the wonderful folks at NEME.

This essay looks at the current problems with screen based apps and how more and more people are doing things like walking into traffic and texting while driving. This brings up a crucial need to look at where we are at with screen based AR and apps in relation to both the history to this point and what must now be considered.
