BORING POSTCARDS : I still don't know any more about these postcards than what they show and tell. I couldn't tell you the history of the various printers, or the hallmarks of collectibility. And I love it like that. ... more ... ALLURE : A half-concealed woman is a power, if she chooses how to display herself and does so with an eye to drawing my eye. http://www.etymonline.com/columns/index.html

The Girl That Snuck Into a Russian Rocket Factory

The internet is quickly becoming smitten with a young photographer/urban explorer who broke into an unguarded rocket facility in Russia. Jesus Diaz at Gizmodo writes : Her name is Lana Sator and she snuck into one of NPO Energomash factories outside of Moscow. Her photos are amazing, like sets straight out of Star Wars or Alien. Now the Russian government is harassing her. http://coilhouse.net/2012/01/the-girl-that-snuck-into-a-russian-rocket-factory/

If you haven’t already, stop in and spend some time enjoying it. Liz Sales: What inspired Artist’s Atheneum? Nandita Raman: In my experience, research for projects can become an insular and convergent process. I have benefited from having conversations about my ideas with friends who are writers, filmmakers, scientists or active thinkers, irrespective of their professions. They have introduced me to films, books, music and other research that has helped in opening up my practice.
