Discussing art at Reincarnations (2008)

The Reincarnations exhibit at 1111 Pennsylvania Ave, Washington DC was a great show with lots of very interesting pieces and artists. The show was curated by Linda and Steve Krensky and the Zenith Art Gallery.

Mother Globe and I at Artomatic (2008) The steel table next to me was an outgrowth of a failed effort to make a metal stamp to bend computer covers.

Megan and I setup Floppy and the Computer Virus exhibit, dressed in our BioHazard suits, just in case.

In Progress

A corner from Digital Womb

Each corner is reinforced with plywood straps that are glued to the edges. Hinges are added in the next step.

Cleaning up MotherGlobe

My Halloween Costume.

Mother Globe in progress circa 2004.

The aluminum frame that support the motherboards is very interesting itself. I may try to build another frame like this.
