on this day of the inauguration I woke up thinking about the future.
I saw this sky while laying in bed praying.
I got up to capture it.
I love the symbolism in this.
The grey clouds in the foreground... yes times are hard, but look at the glory to come.
The future is bright. He does indeed have the whole world in His hands.
I am trusting.

Dundee, DD1 4EZ
With a tide of change sweeping the globe and the socio-political landscape increasingly subject to crisis and change, automation, algorithms and AI are playing an influential role within this paradigm.
So who are we to trust? This panel of artists and technologists explores the complex anthropomorphic relationships we have with gadgets and robots and how this shapes our world view. The panel will include Kirsty Hassard, Jan de Coster, Professor Ruth Aylett and Julien Ottavi.
About the Panel
Kirsty Hassard is curator of the Hello, Robot. exhibition at V&A Dundee, which investigates how robots are helping to shape the world we live in, showing how design is a mediator in this relationship between human and machine. A relative newcomer to the world of robotics, she was previously assistant curator of Furniture, Textiles and Fashion at the Victoria and Albert Museum and was assistant curator on the Balenciaga: Shaping Fashion exhibition. She has an MA in History and a MLitt in Dress and Textile Histories from the University of Glasgow. She has lectured and published on the relationship between print culture and fashion in eighteenth century London and Paris.
Jan De Coster grew up with a vivid fascination for physics, science fiction stories and hacking stuff. In college he realized that all the stories around science were often far more appealing than the theory behind them, and in the mid 90’s he started on his first multimedia productions.
In 2007, Jan founded Slightly Overdone Robots, a production studio which explores the horizons of Human-Robot interaction, where he has been making interactive installations and Robots ever since.
On his quest to make Robots a more widely accepted creative medium, Jan is now teaching young and old about building Robots, focusing on the design and the process, and the way they make us feel.
In the late 90’s Jan De Coster started making interactive projects and physical installations, with a strong focus on storytelling.
Jan has a background in physics and engineering and worked at different Advertising agencies at the beginning of his career. In recent years, he started teaching and giving workshops and lectures about innovation, creativity and especially robots. These workshops have brought him to visit and engage with creative communities from Qatar to Mexico. His robots have been travelling the world as a part of different exhibitions and his social robots explore the meaning of human-robot interaction.
Prof Ruth Aylett – Ruth is Professor of Computer Sciences in the School of Maths and Computer Science at Heriot-Watt University. She researches Affective Systems, Social Agents in both graphical and robotic embodiments, and Human-Robot Interaction, as well as Interactive Narrative. She led three EU projects (VICTEC, eCIRCUS and eCUTE) in the period 2001-2012 applying empathic graphical characters to education against bullying (FearNot!) and in cultural sensitive (ORIENT, Traveller, MIXER). She also worked as a PI in the projects LIREC (investigating long-lived robot companions) and EMOTE (an empathic robot tutor). She led the EPSRC-funded network of excellence in interactive narrative, RIDERS. She is currently PI of the project SoCoRo (Socially Competent Robots) which is investigating the use of a mobile robot to train high-functioning adults with an Autism Spectrum Disorder in social interaction. She has authored more then 250 referred publications in conferences, journals and book chapters, and has been an invited speaker at various events, most recently AAMAS 2016.
Julien Ottavi – Doctor in Arts, Composer, Artist, Curator. A mediactivist, artist-researcher, composer / musician, poet and tongues destroyer, experimental filmmaker and an architect, founder and member of Apo33, Julien Ottavi is involved in research and creative work, combining sound art, real-time video, new technologies and body performances. Since 1997, he develops a composition work using voice and its transformation through computer. Active developer of audio/visual programs with Puredata, he has also developed since many years DIY electronics (radio transmitters, oscillators, mixers, amplifiers, video transmitters…etc) in the perspective of knowledge sharing on technological development. Main developer for the Gnu/Linux operating system APODIO for digital art and A/V & streaming diffusion. His practices is not limited to the art spheres but crosses different fields from technological development to philosophy / theoretical research, biomimetic analysis, robotics and experimentation. For many years he reflects on the relations between experimental practices and collective practices within the creation of autonomous collective groups, putting in question the authorship strategy of the “art ideology.”

A somewhat spooky/old (and dangerous) children's merry-go-round in the "Mosaco Retirees, Inc." private park on Fearnot Mills Road, just south of Seven Mile. I'm still not sure what to make of this entire area.

'Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’
Isaiah 41:10(NKJV)
I'm not sure what to make of this one. In its present state, it functioned as a bathroom/outhouse in this odd park. Upon closer inspection, it appears as though it could have been a very small one-room schoolhouse. Maybe I'm looking too much into it. Either way, it's abandoned. The "park" in which this is located is also marked as private property, though there are picnic shelters and childrens' playground equipment...however, everything looks very old (see the picture two photos after this one in this set). My friend Frank told me that not long ago this entire area was very overgrown and abandoned-looking. There's a sign near this outhouse saying "Mosaco Retirees, Inc.", which is a non-profit group based in Hamilton. Did this group buy this former park property? It appears that way. If this WAS a schoolhouse turned outhouse, then it's just another indicator that education is going down the toilet these days *rimshot*...This area is on Fearnot Mills Road, just south of Seven Mile.

So ends another day,
my heart is full,
it was a bright, hot sunny day today,
the clouds were scattered,
the wind was gone,
and warmth on my shoulders felt
like summer.
eventide brings the sweetest light.

Section of "The Throne of the Third Heaven of the Nations' Millennium General Assembly" created by James Hampton from 1950-1964. It is constructed of gold and silver aluminum foil, Kraft paper, and plastic over wood furniture, paperboard, and glass 180 pieces in overall configuration: 10 1/2 x 27 x 14 1/2 ft. and is in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, DC.
The following is excerpted from an essay by Lynda Roscoe Hartigan of the National Museum of American Art:
"An ingenious selection and use of materials and an innate feeling for design characterize Hampton's radiant work. A poor man, he applied his imagination to the transformation of discarded materials. Merchants in the used-furniture district near the garage remember that Hampton would browse, inquire about prices, and sometimes return with a child's wagon to carry away his purchases. All of the objects are covered with different grades of gold and aluminum foils removed from store displays, bottles, cigarette boxes, and rolls of kitchen foil. Hampton paid neighborhood indigents for the foil on their wine bottles, and he walked the streets with a croker sack in which to carry his finds. He also gathered used light bulbs, cardboard, insulation board, construction paper, desk blotters, and sheets of transparent plastic, probably from the trash of the government buildings where he worked.
It is mostly foil covering a substructure of wooden furniture or hollow cardboard cylinders removed from rolls of carpeting. Small stands are formed by drawers turned upside-down and mounted on cheap glass vases. Jelly glasses and light bulbs covered with foil often complete tops and corners of objects, while construction paper and cardboard are the foundations for decorative forms such as stars and wings. The edges of tables are sometimes trimmed with slender tubes of electrical cable camouflaged with gold foil. Rows of small knobs are made of balls of crumpled foil or newspaper covered with foil. Glittering gold and silver dominate the color scheme. Touches of green are provided by desk blotters used to cover table tops and other areas. Tan cardboard and construction paper (faded from a deep purple) lend a more subdued note to the ensemble. Other variations, unnoticed until the objects are examined closely, are small areas of manila paper covered with intricate designs drawn with blue and brown ink."
