Senior Studio Art Majors Show Reception!
Friday, May 10 at 7-9 p.m.This is going to be a fantastic event with art by our very talented senior studio art majors. Don’t miss it!
Williams College Museum of Art
(Show runs through June 2.)
Probably my favorite art for a senior studio art major final show thus far. Some talented people in this bunch, so I’m sure it’ll be great.
I’m obsessed with Sterling Duns. You probably should be too.
There have been a lot of weird breaking email headlines this week. My favorite was from Friday: “A week of death and chaos comes to an end in a hail of gunfire and explosives.” Cuz, yup, that about sums it up.
But I like this one from earlier today, too. A sealed complaint. That’s how they communicate to you that they are displeased with your bomb shenanigans: A complaint. In writing.
Leak faster, Daft Punk!
A friend of mine was standing by the first trash can. He had been trying to get to the front and a woman wouldn’t let him take her spot. So he moved down the way to get a better view and later watched as the explosion engulf her.
He’s okay.
My heart is breaking all over the place right now. In Boston, at the mecca of running celebrations, a mile from where I was today, where I am every day…
The digital divide thus represents a sociocultural divide: In India, those who use social media are more likely to live in cities, hold a passport, and share values with social media users in the West. By relying too heavily on social media, journalists may find that their coverage skews toward a narrow readership. One Australian journalist told us that the rape protests gained prominence on Twitter “because [social media] is city-based and at the center of the life of the middle class, university students, and mobile professionals.” The journalist from Neue Zürcher Zeitung told us “it is easy to share ideas and read articles of colleagues or see what intellectuals think.” What’s more difficult is to get beyond that narrow demographic and understand the views of Indians whose voices are not heard on social media.
Great lessons in this @niemanlab post on digital divide/using social for news-gathering bit.ly/YGEktk

incidentally: the storyboard project automagically creates storyboards from subtitled video and is way rad. i wonder: could such a program pull out the corresponding images of select non-verbal subtitles?
This is a great feature of a great tumblr. Are all of you following? I hope all of you are following.
Some people asked valid questions; others panicked.
The people who make things were confused, and the people who manage stuff and go to meetings all day lied.
Is that kafkaesque?
Also I turned into a cockroach
