In Texas Memoriam

James Bones Jr. November 1, 1943 — November 17, 2023 [80] . Fort Davis News is never new in Texas. Knowledge travels slower than gossip, often missing the train. He lived in the ‘tiny texas triangle’ — a southwest artist. The world, the urban, the built. Jim bones survived in the tiny triangle, but didn’t flourish . Small grants, wives, persistence, kept him alive. He is noticed by the dye…

note-book

there’s only so much bunion one heel can take . [MD: For a long time, I only made photographs, and dabbled in the moving image. I didn’t really start to write until after editing Mother Reader [2001], at which point I wanted to take a break from photography and focus on writing and video. My most recent photographs are black and white images of chickens, horses and dogs taken with my late-1960s…

Dog Whistles woven into the fabric. UA == a clothing store for the Ubermensch. Uber Alles and a salute from the Right Hand of Idaho.

Kodak Who?

This and that. After the flumox comes the fluff. And, the facts. Something about what they do: who do they hire. How much do they pay. What do those people do. The digested version: Kodak Alaris pays more than Eastman Kodak. Their jobs require automation control knowledge. Kodak Alaris,aka Moments, is all about Thermal Media. That is the estimated growth area. Your photographic Moment on a mug,…

If, and only if… a person’s awareness increases beyond the elements of the work, the components. The gathering is the difference. Sometimes, it provides enough affirmation, supporting you as you gain the skills outside your studio. 1975, “If I can…

In No Particular Order

We work to do something else… unless work is filling. Filling more than time and the bank. That isn’t what most of the worker space does. Most work, even Silicon-Soft-Tech work, is done for money. No more, no less. The draftee in America’s war — make the cut. Join the club. Coders for sidewalk repair. First they come for you neighbor … —The National Park Service announced Monday that the statue…

Discourses on Art

Book by age, or by contents. How do you choose the text for your table? Mine is filled and emptied by whim; by wandering among the stacks. Like a sleepwalker without slippers. Old books are kept not maintained. They become overlaid with marks upon readings. Reynolds is an old text without many current readers. I never spend more than a frew minutes with it, although it draws me in enough times…

Blogs Are Dead

yep. As a vehicle carrying you to fame; not dead for why they began. Awareness of your world. They started as a “log” — journal based commitment. First, a homepage before the net was “e” and “ramp” … WEBLOG, the word arose in 1997; prior to that written pages were widespread with links to other pages. Some people were gathering those links into categories. We long to shorten words: chop off the…
