FW: springs coronet on Second Life at WMA




Here is the avatar springs coronet (A.K.A. Melissa Rosengard, costco photo contest winner and former head of the Western Museums Association) presenting LIVE at the WMA Conference in Anchorage, AK.

So far this has been a great show! Thanks, Melissa, for turning us on to The Institute for the Future.

..the Palinicity is scary up here in Alaska, though. I feel as if I am in a bunker, in-the-thick behind enemy lines amidst the culture wars. I don't blame Alaskans, per se, more Sarah Palin's willingness to run as a vice president of the United States.

It was a fabulous session indeed. How many sessions allow you to create a new version of yourself and travel all over an alternate universe? :) Not to mention welcome politically charged conversation?! hehehehehe

And if I see ONE MORE Palin tee-shirt, I will stuff it down the nearest ruddy salesclerk's THROAT.

Review: Macbeth

Macbeth by William Shakespeare My rating: 4 of 5 stars Four and a half stars, with one major flaw: the producers chose to do this funny little trick of overlaying Cumming's voices when he was multiple characters, namely three weird sisters when they spoke at once. The result was echo-y and distracting. Otherwise, the whole thing felt like the smartest guy in the neighborhood inviting you over to listen to him read, and you cared: knew the story and really wanted to hear how he delivered. It was intimate and rewarding. It also made me think about how it is a story of Scots and English. View all my reviews

Review: King Henry VI, Part 2

King Henry VI, Part 2 by William Shakespeare My rating: 5 of 5 stars I have just now gotten to part 2 of the Henry VI plays. the first had amazing speeches and frickin' Joan of Arc and I thought it couldn't get any better. THAN this one's got conjurors who evoke prophetic specters, multiple beheadings, and a mad rebel named Cade who just starts to try to take over the whole country, no Empire for like no good reason then gets killed after hiding ten days without food in a hedgegrove. The language is extraordinary from the get go where pious Henry says, "O Lord, that lends me life, Lend me a heart replete with thankfulness!" I am going to make that my motto! View all my reviews
