This is all my handmade paper complete with solvent transfer prints. Well, all my handmade paper bar one piece, which has gone missing somewhere along the line. Very annoying, especially as I would have filled the wall up perfectly if it wasn’t for that. The imagery in the transfers are photographs of book pages — a bunch of conflicting information and myths about the “creation” of the world/universe. The paper is printed on both sides, but you only see one side here, obviously. And because it took four hours to pin up, that’s all you’re going to see. This project is going to change drastically from here on in, to the point that the imagery in these transfer prints will be almost unrecognisable.
The students and teachers of Perspectives Middle Academy (located in Auburn Gresham) are making tremendous academic and social emotional learning growth. Just this past year SY 2013-2014, they made almost two (2) grade levels of growth in both math and reading.

Perspectives in Dutch Architecture - Abstract from Biennale catalogue
Good architects don't just plan cities; they imagine them in three dimensions. They see them in their mind's eyes, either from great heights of from the vantage point of the future viewer. In the Netherlands in particular, architects see the city (or the metacity) as a complete environment. The Dutch do not just let cities happen or try to control them through planning instruments, they make them as concrete, coherent artifacts-a "makeable society." In this exhibition we present a survey - focused on Amsterdam - of perspectives for imagined cities, drawn from our comprehensive collection and the archives of contemporary architects.
Architects are continually reinventing Amsterdam. They open up what is already there, not by just showing a new building but by delineating space logically annd bounded by clear form in a perfected version of the city. Much of the charm of Amsterdam and of 17th century Dutch art is the result of its explicit organisation of otherwise everday objects in a carefully composed spatial environment. This is visible on a large scale in the 17th Century 'grachtengordel' but also in the famous Plan South of H.P. Berlage or in the modern suburban areas drawn by C. Van Eesteren.
The reaction against this perfect and global viewpoint came in the 1970s and on a smaller scale with fragmented perspectives focused on details and proposed familiar elemets. Recently, the computer has given architects the chance to meld eye level, God's eye and collage perspective into seamless animated and flexible swoops and pans.
Taken together, these perspective drawings show how architecture can imagine the city as a place to be inhabited, understood and perhaps controlled. Instead of abstract plans for the future, they offer us views on what the future could and perhaps should look like. The perspective drawings show an Amsterdam even more layered then it is or it ever will be.
If I were a camera.... what would I see on the other side if Caity was using it?
I would see this or all kinds of unique faces from her!

A few years ago I really got into my Facebook account. I had tons of friends and was a part of all sorts of “truther” and conspiracy groups. Whenever there was some kind of event happening, a big thread would blow up on my Facebook wall. Likewise, when I had important news to share I would simp...
