TRON

Logan and I really like Be Kind, Rewind. Turns out that movie has created real culture. TRON culture. Thanks Dan

Reefer Madness

Coral reefs across the world are in trouble. I recently read that the slight increase in ocean temperatures is cause massive bleaching- not quite adie off, but almost. Superhero Helle Jorgensen has been organizing crochet troops to make crochet coral creatures. The whole thing debuts in New York on April 7th in 2 locations. It will be beautiful. Thanks Daniel.

Happy Easter

Nothing says "days are getting longer" than a big geodesic structure made of expanded corn syrup covered in FD&C yellow #8 sugar. Nicely Done Ms. EJ.

Wanna Web site?

Craft and social networking site Indie Public is up for sale. Current owner, Scion, sent out an email yesterday notifying users of the current for-sale status. Real life obligations got in the way, as they tend to, and so for a cool $18,500 own a little slice of internet pie.

Fine Craft vs. Indie Craft: an open dialog

I was passed a link to this discussion thread via Sabrina Gschwandtner who received it from Andrew Wagner. I highly recommend anyone who has interest, investment or pride about what we call "indie craft" to take a gander and give your two cents. And I second the suggestion of Annie who wrote the initial blog post who states "you might want to brew a cup of coffee before you sit down for this one . . ."

If you are in Atlanta make your way to Get This Gallery! for the opening of Bill Daniel's Sunset Scavenger opening March 28 2008 - April 19 2008. Check out his large-scale black and white photographs of two contrasting scenes: the floating hippie houseboats of Marin and the wrecked landscapes of New Orleans.

Be Kind

Michel Gondry's new movie Be Kind Rewind is a glorious ode to the DIY spirit. If you're in the NY area you can make your own movies at the related installation at Deitch Projects - but it closes March 22nd, so hurry!

My friend Keira just showed me Andrew Sloat's videos. They are beautiful, patriotic and timely.
