If you’re anywhere near Troy this Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, this festival should be lovely. My friends Micah and Bethany are performing, and I’ll be there volunteering most of the weekend.
The Gilded Pony Performance Festival
Troy, NY — ATLAS Dance and FO (A) RM Magazine present The Gilded Pony Performance Festival May 19-21, 2006, in Troy […]
I won’t be in this show since I’m graduating this semester. But most of my fellow grads will be. Come take a look!
“Empty-Set-Go!,” an exhibition of work by MFA candidates at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, will take place on Sunday, May 7th from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM in the West Hall Gallery, Room 111, Sage […]
For the next few weeks, I’ll be filling in for Jo-Anne, Michelle, and Helen, blogging about networked performance, ubiquitous computing, augmented reality, net art, and more for Turbulence.org’s networked_performance blog.
My thesis show yesterday went well. The singing sounded amazing. There were 55-60 people in attendance at the Old Songs building, including almost 20 shape note singers from as far away as Brattleboro, Boston, and New York City.
People thought the music and the book were beautiful. Some people seemed to get the story, but […]

Bad news: A judge yesterday declined to dismiss charges against Steve Kurtz, saying that the motion to dismiss was “premature.” The CAE Defense Fund, which has so far raised $200,000 for Kurtz’ defense, is expected to release a new plan of action soon.

I should link this nice little write up of the United Victorian Workers rally and march at the Victorian Stroll last Sunday (the link may only be up for a week, so read it while you can):

I arrived at the CAC at 3:30 […]
