Alternative Practices: Mail Art “Your Data Must Be Analyzed”
“Your Data Must Be Analyzed” is a Mail Art Series that I am sending out to my Alternative Practices class. It is an initial off-line survey that I am starting for another project. I’ve been calling this the “analog” version. (although there isn’t much analog about it) However, I am experimenting in the response Off-line v.s. Online. More to come on this project and the responses later. We shall see.

Alternative Practices: Book Binding
In my alternative practices class last night we learned book binding techniques. I was able to make a small book out of French Paper (kraft) and a cover from vintage contact paper I found at the thrift store. The first is a Japanese Stab Binding and the second book is a dos-à-dos binding. The dos-a-dos is made from French Paper (a light blue duratone), filler paper, and a Kroger print out sheet form a processer. I am looking forward to making more books!

Inspiration: 40 wild birds play a Gibson Les Paul guitar
The film is of an installation by a contemporary French artist called Celeste Boursier-Mougenot.

Fabric of Time by Sara Cannon – Friday the 18th Installation Art Show
everyone grows up.
everyone has memory.
everyone wears clothes.
- this interactive installation explores the fabric and communities combined with nostalgia, forward movement, associations, and memory.-
The fabric swatches pinned delicately to the wall are all cut out and taken from different clothes that I have worn throughout my life. Every piece of material invokes a specific memory, a feeling, or a time period. All of them are threaded to the center piece. The center piece resembles a wind chime, kite, and loom. Hanging in the center, there is a piece of a quilt which has sewn some of the fabric pieces together to create a unified piece, but still unfinished. When the center piece sways or is pushed, all the fabric pieces move and sway like a school of fish.. all bound to an unknown rhythm. The interaction is playful but elegant and quiet, looking back and looking forward.
