The Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles is one of, if not the, best spots in the US for contemporary art. Its second location, the Geffen, was my favorite museum in LA by far. Take some years of bad financial decision making and then add the current financial market and you've got a recipe for problems. Since I no longer live in LA, I want to help so if anyone reading this can go and sign the petition, we are at least doing our slactavist part in helping.SIGN HERE!

Replace most of the ads you see online with art. I have no issue with unobtrusive ones, but most of them are big and flashy and pop up.

I subscribe to a LOT of blogs. I am wayyy behind on reading them but I did recently find two that I thought I'd share.

First off is onthecusp.org. It is a local Indianapolis blog about art. Good way to keep up with the local scene.

The second is Modern Art Notes by Tyler Green. I had the pleasure of seeing his lecture last night at the Central library. (I also met him and the writers of onthecusp last night also {well I'd already met one of the writers of onthecusp but I saw him and met the 2nd writer}).

I think I should be asleep not watching Survivorman....

I've been putting off shooting this because I never knew how long it would take, no estimate at all. So I finally get around to shooting it today and get 70 frames into a 380 frame shoot and my battery dies, since I have to move the setup to change the battery I give up and decide to shoot again once I get an ac adapter. I try and take the camera off the boom stand and it is stuck, it seems the tripod mount came loose inside the camera so it just spins around the bolt. Now I have a camera on a 10 foot pole....doh!
