I know it has been a long time since you’ve heard from me, but now I finally have things to write about! Things, in fact, that I wanted to start writing about on New Year’s Day, but it’s less of a resolution and more of a potential project to relate to my thesis, motivate myself to document and update more, and a (hopefully) interesting way to pass on word about my ongoing projects…. so getting started late is better than not…

in any case, I’m going to try to write everyday (!) and make it into a 365 project, which will carry me into the spring of my thesis year.  maybe by then I’ll have developed good enough habits to continue writing!

so what are these things, you ask?  (this kinda also serves as a good to-do list!)

1) The Hooray project — a public art/gifts projects of sorts, more about finding and discovering home in Chicago, still currently ongoing from Fall 2009!

2) The Gifting project — another gifted art project, making connections with my colleagues through art making…started in spring 2010, and ongoing in various forms.

3) The CBAA conference (which we are leaving for tomorrow!)  — it should be awesome and I’m presenting something on the Hooray project.  which is kinda terrifying.  but a good motivation to write about it!

4) My upcoming roadtrip couchsurfing community art visiting extravaganza that I’m planning for this summer and would like your feedback/assistance/ideas/etc for.

5) Quotes, excerpts, and other things to be possibly used for art makings and writings.

6)  Whatever else I damn well feel like.  :D  (it had to be added.  hehe.)

so, internets, I intend for you to atleast attempt to hold me responsible to posting every day!  (even if it is just a quote or photo).  I can do it, right?

right?

:D
