It's time to start on the third edition of Web-Based Instruction. But I had to set up a work area conducive to productivity (not in my easy chair in front of the big screen TV).

says Peggy Sue as she checks out the desk. Every shelf, slot, and drawer was thoroughly investigated by both girls.
I am sooo loving having some furniture at long last. It is much homier than living out of boxes I also like that this is made of reclaimed wood, which has a far better look than manufactured "rustic" furniture - and no trees had to be cut down to produce it.
In celebration of the launch of its new BFA in Writing program, PNCA is pleased to welcome three acclaimed Portland writers – Lidia Yuknavitch, Tom Spanbauer, and Chuck Palahniuk – for an evening of words and on words.
Write Now celebrates the lunch of PNCA’s BFA in Writing program, chaired by PNCA faculty member Monica Drake. Palahnuik will lead a discussion of what it means to be a writer now, to pursue the writing life, and to try to make a living and to always make art with words. Lidia Yuknavitch and Tom Spanbaeur will read from their books.
Tom Spanbauer, founder of the Dangerous Writers workshop and author of The Man Who Fell in Love With The Moon and other novels will read from his works as will Lidia Yuknavitch, editor of Chiasmus Press and author of Dora: A Head Case and The Chronology of Water: a memoir. Chuck Palahniuk, best known for his breakout novel, Fight Club, will lead a discussion
“Writing is an art, a method, and a way of life,” says Monica Drake, Writing Department Chair. “To study writing is to bring shape and rigor to the very act of thinking and self expression. As we wrestle with words, we learn to tell our stories, and find enriched meaning in the world.” The event highlights the broad community of writers that enlivens Portland’s literary landscape, a community in which, right out of the gate, PNCA’s BFA in Writing program has worked to embed itself.

The automatic writing project started out as an activity among friends and locals. I would write a line someone else would write a line and so on... Then people would overhear us and ask if they could participate and write something too (which surprised me) of course I said "yes!" At that point I realized that lots of people have something to say. I started asking strangers to add entries, then I graduated to offering people $1.00 to participate, some people do not accept the dollar and some pay me a $1.00 (paying it forward). It's becoming quite a lovely, surprising and compelling project. People from many walks of life are participating: homeless, a news reporter, academics, students, doctors, drug addicts, lawyers, tourists etc... People have written things in my journal that they'd never say out loud, not to anyone. Some of it's so sad, some intriguing, hilarious and so on... At the end of the day, every one of these people understand that their entries are being uploaded to the internet and are comforted in knowing that they will be heard. I have no idea where this is going, but it's going just fine! FYI: English is not everyone's first language here. I will be illustrating the book/journal after the text is done. I hope that everyone who reads these entries learns something about people, mostly that we never know what someone else is going through.

Thursday night after the wine and cheese reception, I headed off to polish the abstract from the talk I'd given that morning, and then write in the big abstract book. (Dagstuhl has a wonderful tradition where speakers hand write their abstracts in large bound volumes.)
When I'd finished that I headed down to the basement to check out the action in the ping-pong/foosball room. After taking quite a few pictures (most of which blurry and incoherent), I played several games of foosball (which were also blurry and incoherent - I'm pretty pathetic). Much fun :-).
========
While I'm at Dagstuhl this year I'm going to try (amidst all the "real" work) to capture something of what the workshop is like and, more generally, what it is to do (computer) science. This is hard because it's not flashy high-action bull-riding kind of work, but it's important, significant work and deserves to be documented. I'm just going to have work harder at it.
I'm also probably going to take more people pictures than I would be naturally inclined to. If anyone finds themself in a photo here and objects, let me know and I'd be happy to remove it.
(actually, she was sketching into my notebook :D)
TOTW: Pop those props
(these are some of the things that I always have in my backpack: notebook, pencil, and camera)

I have the worst day ever *still panic*
I had lab today (yeah, I have school 7/7 now ~) and I was scheduled from 11am until 3pm. However, we couldn't finish by that time, so we had to stay and work 'til 6pm (I could leave but I couldn't allow myself to go home and rest while other people were staying and working to cover me, so well, I stayed). When we was finally done, I got to my car, and found out that the car had broken down (what could've been worst???) It couldn't start. I called my friends for help and they came over, tried to jump start it, but it didn't work. Then I called my house owner, who was a mechanist himself, to ask for help. He talked to my friends then they tried something then my car started up. I drove home and now am sitting on my bed, writing this. But I have to leave my car at home so the mechanist can come and check my car. I have class tomorrow and next week ~ still figure out a way to get to school...
