Book of Dreams in the Textile Library

Seemed fitting to put this work in the Library at the Fondazione Antonio Ratti. After I installed the work, I realized that the books on the shelf above the work were photo books!



Thanks to Christian Roche for the photo documentation.

Fireworks Over Venice


I don't know why but I kind of like this lo-fi, point-n-shoot picture of fireworks in Venice. It's basically a crappy 35mm photo but I think I like the randomness after all the 4"x5" and medium format shots I've taken. It's kind of the same as using a pinhole camera in some ways.

Message Factory Workshop as part of Banff Culture Days

If you happen to be in Banff tomorrow, I'm doing a workshop from 11am- 3pm in the Bison courtyard called "The Message Factory" as part of Banff Culture Days I'll be showing people how to make cyanotypes , which can then be sent as postcards. There will also be three typewriters so you can type your own message on the front or back of the card. More information here:
