Concept - Echigo-Tsumari Art Field Humans are part of nature As our civilization reaches a critical juncture, the rich nature of the satoyama existence in Echigo-Tsumari can impel us to review our attitude to the environment, calling into question the modern paradigm which has caused such environmental destruction. This is the origin of the concept “humans are part of nature”, which has become the overarching concept for every program taking place in the Echigo-Tsumari Art Field.

Game Evaluation Form Game Evaluation Form Legend The game evaluation form is meant to provide a concise description of a game and its behavior authoring and scenario generation capabilities. The information in the form was prepared by the BBN game evaluators and represents their personal experiences playing the game, and reading through official and fan-created material. The evaluation form consists of twelve sections. 1.1 Overview 5 Ways to Make Art on the First Day of School The first few days of school can be tough. Students are still being dropped and added to your classes, making it difficult to teach content. Many of your students’ other classes are going over rules, procedures, and syllabi. Usually, when students get to class you can see the boredom coming from their faces. Sure, it’s important to go over rules and procedures, but does it have to be on the very first day of school? Instead of lecturing, why not teach those management skills by creating art?

R. Alina Szapocznikow: Sculpture Undone, 1955–1972 A sculptor who began working during the postwar period in a classical figurative style, Alina Szapocznikow radically reconceptualized sculpture as an imprint not only of memory but also of her own body. Though her career effectively spanned less than two decades (cut short by the artist’s premature death in 1973 at age 47), Szapocznikow left behind a legacy of provocative objects that evoke Surrealism, Nouveau Réalisme, and Pop art. Her tinted polyester casts of body parts, often transformed into everyday objects like lamps or ashtrays; her poured polyurethane forms; and her elaborately constructed sculptures, which at times incorporated photographs, clothing, or car parts, all remain as wonderfully idiosyncratic and culturally resonant today as when they were first made. Well known in Poland, where her work has been highly influential since early in her career, Szapocznikow’s compelling book of work is ripe for art historical reexamination.

ART OF ANOTHER KIND In his first director's report to the board of trustees, James Johnson Sweeney prioritized, among other things, addressing the gap in the collection pertaining to sculpture. Finding it too earthbound to communicate spiritually, founding director Hilla Rebay had not actively collected sculpture, save for a few examples by Alexander Calder, Claire Falkenstein, Naum Gabo, László Moholy-Nagy, and others. From early modernism, Sweeney added nine sculptures by Constantin Brancusi by 1958, creating a concentration of his work for the museum. Sweeney also acquired works by Jean Arp, Raymond Duchamp-Villon, Jacques Lipchitz, Amedeo Modigliani, and others. Five 1930s and 1940s Calder works were gifted from a major collector, though Sweeney had been Calder's close friend since they had met in Paris in the 1930s.

World Map of Social Networks January 2017: a new edition of my World Map of Social Networks, showing the most popular social networking sites by country, according to Alexa & SimilarWeb traffic data (caveat: it’s hard to understand the impact of Google+ because it is part of Google domain traffic). There are a lot of news since last January: Facebook is still the leading social network in 119 out of 149 countries analyzed, but it was stopped in 9 territories by Odnoklassniki, Vkontakte and Linkedin. It’s interesting to see that in some countries, like Botwana, Mozambique, Namibia, Iran e Indonesia, Instagram wins and that some African territories prefer LinkedIn. Overall LinkedIn conquers 9 countries, Instagram 7, meanwhile VKontakte and Odnoklassniki (part of the same group Mail.ru) grow up in Russian territories. In China QZone still dominates the Asian landscape with 632 million users and Japan is the only country where Twitter is the leader. But what’s going on behind the first place?
