More than 150 people holding signs and candles attended a vigil, organized by Centro Presente, at the Massachusetts State House to protest the arrest of 121 immigrants last weekend, primarily in Texas, Georgia, and North Carolina, targeting a specific group of adults and children from Central America who arrived illegally after May 1, 2014, and had been ordered deported by an immigration judge. Although nobody has been detained in New England advocates are planning forums to educate immigrants about their rights in case of a raid.

Custom idea. Custom size/proportion.
I call the process Image-Specific-Framing . . . because the framing elements (including the inner border) are drawn from the original image, the subject's background locale. Assembly from that source promotes a natural, interactive coordination of color and tone. With hundreds of design variation possibilities. Such assembly is an impossible feat for a frame shop. Or, for that matter, for any generic, digital framing program.
So. You may comment on the casually-shot, casual portrait if that's what is prominent for you here. Yes, this is a portrait but it is really the image-to-frame partnership, the special presentation, that is on display here. I make the case that involved, interactive framing such as this can be more individually unique than can conventional framing. And therefore, more personal.
This tailored stylizing is meant to be presented as a custom-sized print mounted with either beveled glass or standard non-glare glass. Assembly is with a clip kit. There you have it. Image-Specific-Framing.

Arecibo County, PR
Listed: 01/06/1986
The Teatro Oliver was Arecibo's first structure built for specific use as theater. Prior to its construction in 1876 by a great patron of the arts, the Marquez "de las Claras"; theatrical performances were held in private clubs or houses. The original neoclassic structure had a stagewhere great international artists displayed their talents. Some of these great artists include actress Adelina Patts, opera singers Caruso and Antonio Paoli and during the 1930's Carlos Garde!, the great tango idol, gave one of his last performances on this stage, before his tragic death.
Local actors also displayed their talent on this stage. These performances allowed people from all social echelons to expand their cultural horizon. The Theater gave local playwrighters an opportunity to stage their work. Thanks to this, Arecibo became one of the island's cities to produce great playwrighters such as Rene Marquez, considered as one of Puerto Rico's greatest talents in this artistic labor.
This was a true theater in the old European sense. Its facilities were used not only for theatrical presentation but also for social, sporting, political and other town events. Great public balls, exuberant carnivals and basketball games were held in Theaters' Orchestra level which thanks to a hydraulic system could be elevated to stage level thus making it a great ball room or sport arena. Politicians used the stage for their debates during campaign and schools used it for their graduations.
... even when many of the specific details become lost.

This modified Harris Shutter Effect image generates colored "ghosts" on a black background. Things that move and other differences between three more-or-less sequential photos are emphasized while static features turn black. For this project I maximized congruency of the truck, moving around a curve, allowing the background to lose registration.

dSatellite is a site-specific architectural structure that extends the mission of DFLUX (www.dflux.org), a Detroit-based research studio and residency program, further into its community. DFLUX engages its local neighborhood and the general public with creative actions, research, and workshops. In so doing, they hope to reveal and create emergent and sustainable cottage industries. dSatellite was created with the intention of providing future DFLUX participants and local residents with an outpost to engage in various field research. Constructed with foraged building materials, dSatellite merges both the physical and conceptual characteristics of the DFLUX Residency site and a typical nature blind used by naturalists, scientists, photographers and hunters. dSatellite is currently deployed in a completely razed residential neighborhood of Detroit currently referred to as the "field" by local residents and "Renaissance Zone" by real estate developers. A dense urban forest, rich with wildlife, has grown there, only crumbling roads and alleys, debris piles, and public utilities remain as signs of past use.
dSatellite was created during a research residency at DFLUX in Detroit, MI in collaboration with Joseph G. Cruz (http://josephgcruz.com)
A further tour to Fourvière, Lyon, France for a specific visit of l'Antiquaille on October 20, 2022. I did also a new Kodak Tri-X film with my Zorki-4K camera and its Jupiter-8 1:2 f=50 mm normal lens.
The Zorki was loaded with the Kodak Tri-X (TX) exposed for 400 ISO using a Minolta Autometer III lightmeter fitted with a 10° viewfinder for selective measuring privileging the shadows. After exposure the film was processed at 20°C using Tetenal Ultrafin developer at dilution 1+10 for 9min.

After process the film was digitalized using a Sony A7 body and a Minolta Slide Duplicator with a Minolta Auto Bellows III with a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5.
After several films, and the range finder adjusted, I found the Zorki-4K very pleasant to use. The camera is clearly very reliable and the film smoothly advanced and rewound. I equipped the lens with a FOCA UV-protection filter (Made in France) and the hood of my Focaflex. All views are presented either framed or full-size.
About the camera :
This camera was manufactured in 1977 by KMZ company ( Красногорский механический завод, Krasnogorskiy Mechanicheskiy Zavod) located in the Moscow region. KMZ also manufactured the ZENIT SLR's among many other productions. Zorki 4K was produced between 1972 to 1978 and the previous Zorki models were inspired by the Leica II since 1949. This model 'Made in USSR" is branded in roman characters, intentionally for exportation. Other Zorki 4K were also branded in Cyrillic as "Зоркий". Zorki 4K was sold basically either with this Jupiter-8 lens 1:2 f=50mm or the Industar lens1:3.5 f=50mm. The Jupiter-8 is a Sonnar Zeiss optical formula and fits to the Zorki body using the screwing M39 Leica mount.
Its was sold to me in August 2022 from Austria with its original ever-ready leather bag, a front lens cap and a small shade hood accessory Minolta D42KA. The shade hood and filter of my Focaflex also fit to the Jupiter lens (Leica standard 42 mm filter)

A specific angle of the Provinciehuis Antwerpen. The building, which was finished in 2018 and houses the provincial government of Antwerp, was designed by architect Xaveer De Geyter and contains 683 triangular windows. The building as a whole has a rather unique swerving design to it, which is quite a sight, but I was struck by the seemingly (but not quite) symmetrical feel of this particular shot.

Part of a site-specific installation produced for Constance ARI in April, 2009. Pictured: model of proposed redevelopment and notice.
The explanation of the supposed "redevelopment":
"To coincide with Inflight’s change of name and scope, the existing gallery building at 100 Goulburn St will be redeveloped. Based on current trends in museum architecture, the humble ARI will be transformed into a cutting edge monument to rival institutions such as the Guggenheim(s), the New Museum, the Tel Aviv Museum of Art and MONA. The redevelopment will retain the building’s existing white cubic base, but will have three additional levels on top, will include the neighbouring apartment in the same building, and convert the current carpark into a concrete-paved sculpture garden.
The art museum is no longer built in the image of a Greek temple. Instead, it strives to be unique in every way, from the toilets to the shiny coloured enamel exterior. However, the features designed to create a unique structure paradoxically tend to be common to most new museum buildings. These features include bizarre angles, curved or polished concrete, confusing layout, large entrance courtyards, water features, unlikely toilets, rust, and floating or unusual staircases. The institution will encourage site-specific artworks that respond to the architecture, with art invading the lift shafts, stairs and toilets. Importantly, the ‘visitor experience’ is enhanced through the provision of a gift shop, bar, restaurant and/or café. I have identified the most common of these features and have attempted to apply as many as possible to the new Constance ARI design, with the aim of providing Hobart with (another) ‘unique’ contemporary art museum."

This photo took a few days to happen. The first day I wanted to do it, I was too full from dinner. The second day I wanted to do it, I got up before work and the pool was closed. Finally, on this day the pool was open and it was after midnight EST. So I got into the pool at night to take my photos.
It was neat to get a different type of shot at night where the only illumination was from the pool lights and/or the flash on my camera.
Since I took so many shots and I liked so many, I'll be posting some of the out-takes as well.
This is a costume I worked on, and wore for Halloween 09, its based on the character Scud The Disposable Assassin by Rob Schrab. That book was so great that I was inspired to make this costume from scratch, or to be specific: cardboard, big cardboard tubing, a pair of old sneakers, red and yellow stocking, and 5 rolls of yellow duct tape and a few swatches of black tape and marker. Thats a computer print out of his back label. If only I were less fat and short I could have really made this perfect. I'm considering using the same format and extra materials to create one of Oswald as well, but this year I already promised I'd be Raccoon Mario, so bunny robots will have to wait at least a year.

Abierto x Obras. Matadero Madrid. Del 15 de septiembre 2017 al 8 de enero 2018.
Matadero Madrid presenta Los Afijos, una intervención site specific que ha realizado Juan López (Cantabria, 1979) para el programa Abierto x Obras, que tiene lugar en la antigua cámara frigorífica del que fue el matadero de Legazpi. La propuesta del artista plantea una intervención escultórica sobre la arquitectura como forma de resistencia contra lo establecido.
Los afijos son secuencias lingüísticas que se anteponen, se posponen o se insertan en una palabra para modificar su significado. Esta intervención, realizada específicamente para el programa Abierto x Obras de Matadero Madrid, trabaja con la relación entre escritura y arquitectura, entre signo y significado, entre escultura y collage. En un mundo hipercomunicado, poblado de signos creados por una élite intelectual y/o social, López juega con la posibilidad de alumbrar nuevos significados, nuevos espacios y otros regímenes de lo sensible, a partir de la creación de renovados signos, que además componen otros espacios. Así pues, se resignifica el discurso a la vez que se resignifica la arquitectura y por tanto nuestra manera de relacionarnos en este espacio.
Desde sus obras tempranas de intervención en el espacio urbano, el trabajo de Juan López busca desvelar otros modos de percibir el lugar como hipótesis para otras relaciones sociales fuera de la normatividad impuesta por el poder. En su obra, y mediante el recurso de la metáfora, quiebra y recompone los vínculos entre estos tres elementos: ciudad, subjetividad y poder.
Juan López ha expuesto en numerosas galerías, centros de arte, ferias y museos nacionales e internacionales como La Casa Encendida, MUSAC, Centro de Arte Laboral, Fundación Joan Miró, La Panera, O.K. Centrum Tokyo Wonder Site o Den Frie. Además, ha recibido diversos premios y becas como Hegnspl-Award Byens Hegn, Generaciones 2013, Premio ABC de Arte, Beca Fundación Marcelino Botín o Muestra de Arte INJUVE.
Abierto x Obras, en Matadero Madrid, es un programa de intervenciones site specific que invita a artistas a realizar una pieza de nueva producción incentivando el carácter experimental de la creación contemporánea a través de planteamientos que exploran la relación entre el arte y el lugar que lo acoge, la antigua cámara frigorífica del Matadero.
“Life projected through magical digital form”.
Cinetaxis is a project led by SDNA, at once capable of becoming a son et lumier, intimate installation and theatrical performance. It's an experimental collaboration of audio/video art and visual performance creating site specific 'live' installations.
The inspiration for the title 'Cinetaxis' is derived from research into phototaxis, (insects automatic reaction to light sources), and a desire to explore the same in humans ‘attraction to light', both real and metaphorical. This provides an aesthetic and narrative framework drawing links between insect anatomy and the human form, both beautiful and grotesque, fascinating and unsettling.
Cinetaxis is genuinely cross-disciplinary, the project aims to create a dialogue and close integration between multiple artistic and scientific disciplines (contemporary performance, dance, music, new media and visual arts ), led by digital visual art as practised by SDNA.

Book design for Brandon LaBelle's "Site Specific Sound" published by Errant Bodies Press, 2004. Design by R. Yau.
Performance in collaboration with Julian Ronnefeldt - Valentina Floris & Milo (concept J. ronnefeldt)
We constructed a white cube out of materials found on the site in order to project the images of the performance taking place inside this structure as an invitation to the participants to enter the structure. Inside was a machine where photo-transfers of the paper factory were placed. We activated various part of the machine that painted the photographs, metaphorically draining paint from the veins of one of the artist hanged outside the cube.
This is Lily and she is half Pit Bull and half Boxer and she belongs to my friends Rick and Raeanne, they are also my neighbors who live on the same property as we do.
Lily came here as a very small puppy and has grown into a very kind and loving friend. She loves my daughter and is amazingly tolerant of our high strung over grown standard poodle puppy Jessie. You see our puppy is now bigger than Lily and is constantly antagonizing her but Lily knows despite Jessie's size...Jessie is still a baby...Lily treats her as such.
There is so much controversy over the Pit Bull breed and honestly, it makes me crazy. I can't imagine living in a world where I was always being judged for the actions of another, how incredibly unfair that would be.
I have been fortunate to have known many dogs of the Pit Bull breed and I can honestly say that it has been a positive experience with each one.
I worked many years in Veterinary Medicine, as a Tech mostly...I have met the unfortunate souls of this breed who were not by choice, belonging to people who did not have the dogs best interest at heart...even then...underneath what they had been taught...there was something very real and very sad.
Watching Lily grow up has only reinforced my beliefs when it comes to any animal....if what you expect to receive from an animal is love, then you need to love the animal. As with children, they are like sponges...if you teach them to hate....that is what they will learn.
Lily has a family that loves her, they are kind to Lily and in turn she is kind to others...it's not rocket science...it's respect...to get it...we need to give it.

The Viennese City Park stretches from the park ring in the first district of Vienna up to the Haymarket in the third district of Vienna and is a of both tourists and local citizens well-visited park in Vienna. Its area is 65,000 m².
History
Yet in the Biedermeier the Water Glacis was a popular entertainment venue before the Karolinenstadttor (city gate). As part of the by the demolition of the city wall happened remodeling in the Ringstrasse, the project of a public park has been promoted on that site by the then Mayor of Vienna, Andreas Zelinka. This park was designed in the style of English gardens by the landscape painter Josef Selleny, the plannings were carried out by the city gardener Rudolf Siebeck. On 21th August 1862 the city park was opened as the first public park in Vienna.

"Wien" (Vienna River) in the city park
On the right bank of the river Wien (Wienfluss) was 1863 the so-called children's park, today mainly characterized by paved playgrounds and sports facilities, which over the Karoline bridge (Karolinenbrücke) (since 1918 Stadtparkbrücke), built in 1857, with the on the left bank situated town park is connected.
In the years 1903-1907 was in the parking area after the regulation a by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer planned Vienna river engineering structure with the river gate, pavilions and river banks built, which is one of the sights in the park.
In earlier times visitors of the park for the stay in placed chairs had to pay fees that were collected by the chair women (the so-called Sesselweiber).
Attractions in the park
Kursalon
The Kursalon
The water Glacis was a spa pavilion in which healing waters for drinking cures were served. To that affect, in the years 1865 to 1867 for the city park also the Kursalon was built according to plans of Johann Garben. This historicist imposing home in the style of the Italian Renaissanceg is located at the John street (Johannesgasse) and has a large terrace in the park:
After the opening on 8th May 1867 were originally forbidden pleasures. As this concept was not adopted, yet on 15th October in 1868 was taking place the first concert of Johann Strauss (son) whereupon became the Kursalon a popular dance and concert venue in particular at the time of the Strauss brothers. Today, the Kursalon after a renovation phase is again venue for balls, concerts, clubbings and conferences and houses a café-restaurant.

Monuments
With the gilded bronze statue of Johann Strauss (son) stands in the city park one of the best known and most frequently photographed monuments in Vienna. It was on 26th June 1921 unveiled and is framed of a marble relief by Edmund Hellmer. The gilding was removed in 1935 and in 1991 applied again. Other monuments there are, for example, of Franz Schubert, Franz Lehar and Robert Stolz and Hans Makart, the City Park is in monuments and sculptures the richest park in Vienna.
The dairy (Meierei)
The former milk bar was built as part of the Wienflußverbauung (Vienna river engineering structure) according to plans by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer from 1901 until 1903. After suffering heavy damages during the Second World War the building was extended in the reconstruction. Today is in the dairy after another annex a restaurant.
Planting
The planting of the city park is characterized by a great diversity of species and is, as possible, focused on a year-round flowering. Through an avenue to the ring road noise and exhaust gases are filtered. Some trees are protected, such as a ginkgo, a crown of thorns (Honeylocust, Christusdorn), cottonwood tree and Caucasian wingnut.
To say that a law protects against something is missing out a step or two and either introducing imprecision where it need not be introduced, or committing advertising.
laws tend to provide for penalties against people who transgress them. Whether the fear of that protects, or the exactment of them compensates the individual is a more complex matter.
In this specific case though there is pretty much general agreement that whistleblowers in the NHS, and I suspect in local government, as well as many firms are not protected by the law.
Odd that, that the people behaving illegally and in this context failing to look after the vulnerable might act badly and illegally against someone who causes them trouble. Well, less odd than some things.
It would be unfair to expect the Hemingway touch in these tuition materials I will accept.

Part of a site-specific installation produced for Constance ARI in April, 2013. Drawn internal plans of each level.
The explanation of the supposed "redevelopment":
"To coincide with Inflight’s change of name and scope, the existing gallery building at 100 Goulburn St will be redeveloped. Based on current trends in museum architecture, the humble ARI will be transformed into a cutting edge monument to rival institutions such as the Guggenheim(s), the New Museum, the Tel Aviv Museum of Art and MONA. The redevelopment will retain the building’s existing white cubic base, but will have three additional levels on top, will include the neighbouring apartment in the same building, and convert the current carpark into a concrete-paved sculpture garden.
The art museum is no longer built in the image of a Greek temple. Instead, it strives to be unique in every way, from the toilets to the shiny coloured enamel exterior. However, the features designed to create a unique structure paradoxically tend to be common to most new museum buildings. These features include bizarre angles, curved or polished concrete, confusing layout, large entrance courtyards, water features, unlikely toilets, rust, and floating or unusual staircases. The institution will encourage site-specific artworks that respond to the architecture, with art invading the lift shafts, stairs and toilets. Importantly, the ‘visitor experience’ is enhanced through the provision of a gift shop, bar, restaurant and/or café. I have identified the most common of these features and have attempted to apply as many as possible to the new Constance ARI design, with the aim of providing Hobart with (another) ‘unique’ contemporary art museum."
