Dear Bay Area Bike Share, </div>
<div class="p1">
Last year I was an eager early founding member of Bay Area Bike Share (#243). As a dedicated rider and bicycle advocate I was and am excited about the potential for bike share to help transform our cities and make our citizens and planet healthier and safer. Sadly, in the first year of operation I have barely used Bay Area Bike Share. There are no stations near my home (26th and Mission Street) or indeed within 2 miles of it even though I live adjacent to one of the busiest bike corridors in the city. I would love to take Bay Area Bike Share shopping, to the park the library or any of the other many errands I use a bike for but with the density of stations all clustered in the downtown area I know it will never happen. Reviewing my usage for the entire time since BABS started you can I have barely used it for more than 2 hours total. </div>
<div class="p1">
Therefore, as my renewal approaches I am sad to say I will cancel my bike share membership. I could maybe justify the membership as a donation to a cause I care about but it does not make sense, there are many other worthy causes and this is something I sincerely hoped eventually to get some practical use from. I hope in the future BABS will become available and useful to more of the city and I have reason to rejoin. </div>
<div class="p1">
Sincerely,</div>
<br />

<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode";">I am a resident of San Francisco, an artist, a
university and community college instructor and a safer streets citizen-activist.
I am also a non-car owning San Franciscan who gets around on a bicycle a
majority of the time. Like many members of the San Francisco artist community I
have supported the Recology Artist in Residence program over the years by
attending exhibitions and applying periodically for a spot in the program. I am
also active in promoting the program among my students and to friends and
colleagues. I hold a lot of good will for the AIR program and several of my
colleagues and friends have been selected for it. I am also, as all residents
of SF are, a Recology customer, I pay two bills a month to your company, one at
my home, and one at my studio.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -1.0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 472.5pt; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode";">It is as a bicycle commuter however that I have seen the
dark side of Recology. I have, on two occasions in 2013 been aggressively
intimidated and put in danger by Recology fleet drivers. In spring of this
year, while cycling to a doctor's appointment on Octavia Boulevard at Market in
San Francisco I was forced into the lane of traffic by a construction crane in
the frontage street bike lane. I signaled with my arm and exercised my legal
right to the lane by safely entering traffic. Just then, a large Recology
garbage truck exited I-101 from behind me. Not only did the driver accelerate
to within only a few feet of my bicycle while I was riding up hill, he then
proceeded to blast his air horn. The situation was jarring and, fearing for my
safety, I quickly worked my way around the construction site and returned to
the bicycle boulevard/frontage road next to Octavia, a maneuver I would have
done anyway if the driver had given me a chance. But he did not notice my obstruction;
instead he was intent on intimidating a more vulnerable street user, presumably
for his amusement. At the next stoplight I tried to explain the situation to
the driver but he laughed and ridiculed me. Less then a week later 21-year-old
Dylan Mitchell was killed by another Recology truck, I was chilled to think it
might have been the same callous, heedless driver who threatened me the
previous week.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -1.0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 472.5pt; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode";">On a second occasion in San Francisco several weeks
later as I was commuting from my studio to my home in the Mission District, I
approached Mariposa Street from Indiana St. heading north, intending to take a
left turn, as I approached the intersection to stop a Recology pick-up truck
sped around the corner to my left onto Indiana, executed an illegal U turn
behind me and then, as I came to a stop at the stop side drove up to my left at
the stop sign, intentionally crowding me and cutting off my turn. When I
mentioned this to the driver he ridiculed me and told me to stay off the road
before speeding off in front of me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -1.0in; tab-stops: 472.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode";">As a cyclist
in San Francisco I am constantly on guard against the dangers of reckless,
distracted drivers who are legion. More rare are the cases where I am outright
intimated and threatened by drivers, but in two of these rare occurrences this
year drivers for Recology have been responsible. They have done so in a year
where Recology drivers are responsible for killing three vulnerable street
users.. To review: three citizens have been killed, and one small child maimed by
your drivers in 2013. These events and my personal experience denote a company
culture of wanton and heedless disregard for public safety. I will work to see
that you are made accountable to the citizens of San Francisco and also to see
that members of San Francisco’s Art community who have given so much of them
selves to Recology’s AIR program join me in calling for change.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -1.0in; tab-stops: 472.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode";">I call upon
San Francisco City leaders to make Recology’s contract conditional upon its
ability to stop killing and maiming members of the public. Any new events of
this sort should result in immediate revoking of your contract. Until concrete
changes are made, I will boycott any Recology events and encourage my friends
in the art community to join me in doing so and to explain to you why.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Hi Janice,</span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Thanks for reaching out to SFSU. Any program that addresses mobility in this part of the city has to address the campus there. With a school of this size the potential for reducing auto traffic is huge however students traveling here are faced with cumbersome, indirect transit choices, harrowing pedestrian accommodation and even worse bicycle infrastructure in the adjacent areas. The high level of student car traffic, ( a huge segment of which is students searching for parking by in the surrounding neighborhoods) overlaying the already overburdened 19th St. corridor is appalling but holds many promising potential areas for improvement. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
For example, Holloway Avenue is my commute route to the Fine Art Dept. at SFSU but when I travel there or leave my night class I battle car traffic using the street as a short cut to 280 and the City College area. I also see scores of students hiking from Balboa Park Bart along this route, students who could be on bikes but are most likely put off by the unsafe conditions. Currently the route has sharrows and speed humps but it is not enough. Many times cars have accelerated unsafely past me in the dark against oncoming traffic over the speed humps to make time. Holloway is designed as a quasi-bike boulevard but is actually a very unsafe auto shortcut.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I have proposed at the August meeting of the San Francisco Bicycle Advisory Commitee that this route have traffic diversion at a key point, Ashton Avenue. This would make the street a true bike boulevard, the area would only be open to local residential traffic and bicyclists would feel much safer traveling there. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Furthermore this would provide a crucial bicycle link between City College and SFSU, it is frankly a no-brainer. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
The success of such a diversion and the resulting bike-friendly boulevard would increase bicycling to SFSU from the eastern parts of the city and BART exponentially. The success of such a diversion could also lead to similar improvements in other parts of the city. It could be a watershed bike improvement project in the history of San Francisco's move towards a low-carbon sustainable future. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I would be happy to lead any interested parties on a tour of the street and point out the obstacles to safe bicycling there. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Thanks,</div>

I just spent the morning having my front teeth glued back in my head. Long story, it is fallout from being struck by a car in San Francisco almost 2 years ago. The driver who hit me was definitely running a red light, was probably speeding and I have little doubt was distracted by a phone. When I returned home from the dentist I saw a facebook post about another cyclist <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Bicyclist-killed-in-SoMa-crash-with-truck-4731657.php#src=fb" target="_blank">death</a> in my city.<br />
<br />
So far details are skeletal but, on Folsom St., one of the probably 2 busiest cycling commute corridors in SF a 30 year old woman was killed by a right turning driver. In a good sign the police have impounded the vehicle, presumably as evidence.<br />
I am shaken and angry and well, angry.<br />
It is scary to ride a bike in the City, drivers have never been more distracted, texting while driving is ubiquitous.<br />
I want to see change, I want to push communities to push for vulnerable user ordinances, like the <a href="http://www.bikesonoma.org/article/201303/when-will-your-city-protect-us-all" target="_blank">one</a> recently adopted in Sebastapol CA.<br />
<br />
<br />
I may try to organize a vigil tonight but I have never done that before so, we'll see.<br />
<br />
What do I do, make a sign?<br />
<br />
JUSTICE FOR CYCLISTS<br />
<br />
CYCLIST ARE TIRED OF DYING FOR YOUR RIGHT TO DRIVE BADLY<br />
<br />
Street theater? That can be great but also awful.<br />
<br />
What would I accomplish? Simply acknowledging the fact of an unfair loss of life, of someone who was trying to make a positive contribution, killed by a poor road design? distracted driving?<br />
<br />
Is that enough?<br />
<br />
<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Nine months ago today I was riding my bicycle from the Balboa Park Bart Station to San Francisco State University to do some prep for a printmaking class I was teaching. It is a distance of just under a mile and is a route I've ridden dozens of times. This day I changed my route and (in a moment of carelessness? confusion? bad luck?) was struck by a car, landed in the street on my face, shattered my front teeth and broke my jaw. I am mostly on the other end of this experience thanks to the support and love of my family and friends, and the skill and commitment of many medical professionals. I want to share the experience here so that people I know can have an idea what I went through, sort through their own feelings and views about cyclists and drivers, and the importance of the choices we make about how we get around and the way in which it determines how we relate to the places we live.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">In the morning I left my house in the Mission District of San Francisco for downtown Oakland to observe and support the Occupy action that day which was focussed on shutting down the Port of Oakland. I had some free time and figured it was finally time to show up. I remember recognizing <a href="http://renabranstengallery.com/garcia.html" target="_blank">Rupert Garcia</a> on the train, the great Chicano printmaker and activist and former SJSU Painting instructor (he led me on a tour of their program in the mid 2000's). I was too late for the port action although I cycled around the port road to see the police barricade. Mostly I milled around with a moderately sized group at Oscar Grant Plaza and met my Studio mate Josh. I ran into a family friend who I was surprised to learn was an active member of the Occupy movement (She is a full-time paramedic and a single mom so next time you hear people say the Occupiers are lazy call bullshit.) </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Josh and I had lunch nearby and then I headed back to San Francisco on BART. I was wearing an old denim Carhart jacket from my carpenter days, steel toe boots and a tweed cap, my longshoreman's drag I guess. I had my bike helmet with me but on the train had taken it off and strapped it to the front rack of my bike on the train. For whatever reason I did not wear it when I left the BART train. This day, also for some reason I will always regret, I decided to take the busier Ocean Ave. to SFSU instead of my usual route of Holloway, (a quieter quasi-bike boulevard). This is a complicated, busy urban space that borders a suburban part of the City. Ocean Avenue is a four lane street with Muni (San Francisco Municipal Railway) light rail (the K Ingelside) in the left lanes . My intention was to take a left from Ocean Blvd. onto Victoria, a side street that dead ends into Ocean. As I approached the intersection in the right lane the light turned yellow. Cyclists will be familiar with the maneuver I then attempted, I slowed down and waited for the red-light for traffic in my direction, intending to use it to cross the street and complete a left turn. I've since heard it called "boxing the intersection". </span><br />

<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I crossed the intersection and turned to the left. I looked up at a walk signal that showed it was safe to cross, as I turned to my left it was too late, a car that was coming from behind me in the left lane was going through the intersection at the very last second moving fast, as you'll do when you are beating a red. The driver may have been texting, it's possible their vision was obscured by a Muni shelter in the intervening space. I know she was running the red because I saw the walk signal and because another witness was stopped in thier car at the red light in the other direction. That driver heard me hit the street and described a sickening crunch, she thought I was dead and stayed in her car calming down the child in the backseat of her car.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I remember everything, spinning in the air, being thrown from my bike, hitting the ground and getting up to see my teeth scattered in the middle of the street. I immediately got up and turned to see if the driver would flee, I saw their car pull over about 2 blocks distant(!?). Pedestrians come to my aid and guided me to the curb, lots of blood, someone gave me my tweed cap and told me to hold it to my mouth. I sat and watched while the light changed and cars drove over my teeth, I tried to get up and get them and people where forcing me to sit back down. I looked at someone and said, "I guess I'm in shock". </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">What followed is that surreal disruption of your normal reality, the chaotic theater of onlookers, police, fire engines and paramedics, with me in the lead role. I gave a statement to the police and remember the female driver on the periphery giving hers, "…I never saw him". I was totally lucid, knew the President's name and the date, where I was gowing and where I was coming from. I was designated a trauma patient and rushed to San Francisco General Hospital, our county hospital, which in addition to providing primary care for scores of low-income and indigent people is one of the best trauma centers in the country. The paramedics where awesome and sympathetic as was every health care worker I encountered that day, I am so grateful for the people that want to do that work. </span><br />

<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I arrived on a back board in a neck brace, with oxygen and IV fluids for the ride. At SFGH I was "Trauma Beta" and got to hop the line. In the ER I was once again the locus of frenzied, focussed activity. There seemed to be general relief at my lucid state (when I rattled off December 12, 2011 the doctor said "I don't think I would have got that"). They asked me if I wanted to let someone know where I was, "I guess I should let my wife know".</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">CT scans, neurology tests, intravenous painkillers, first morphine then Delaudid. A dental surgeon came and pulled out the remaining broken teeth and many bone fragments in my upper jaw. At one point he was on top of me yanking out the remains of my right incisor like he was pulling a nail, even with a truckload of Lidocaine and Delaudid that hurt. He stitched me up and I was shunted off to a corner of the the ER, floating on a warm river of embryonic fluid when Sarah showed up. I was still in neck brace, and they had cleaned up none of the blood, real horror show. When Sarah saw me she inhaled sharply and held her hands to her mouth. She checked herself in that way you do, not wanting to disturb the injured party more (It didn't matter, I did not really care about anything at that point) and recounted the story of her friend Stacy, who lost her front teeth in a pogo stick accident (true story, it was at work and she got workman's comp) and had since got implants.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">There are some things people will do for you that you can never repay, like Sarah spooning me in my hospital bed that first night. I was at General for three nights. Surgery on day two to wire my lower jaw (a lateral fracture had caused my lower front teeth to flap like an old door). While I knew I was lucky to be alive, The initial prognosis was not encouraging. I had hairline fractures in my sinuses. I might have permanent pain management issues. I may lose the bottom four teeth in addition to the top five. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">In the end my lower teeth healed remarkably well. I have had inserts installed in my upper jaw along with bone and tissue grafts. I probably will have to wear braces for a year before the final (five) teeth are installed. The past nine months have been a constant stream of calls to insurance companies, appointments with lawyers, doctor's appointments. Some people know the drill. I am very lucky to have not had a very medicalized life so it is fairly new to me. Adjusting to wearing dentures, or going in public with no front teeth has been challenging. Since I can't eat with my denture I tend to avoid social eating with people I don't know well. In restaurants I position myself to face a wall so that I don't have to feel self conscious. Pretty minor stuff but it helps me feel admiration for people living with disabilities or disfigurement. I have pretty crappy insurance and the payout from the driver was a small fraction of the total bill. I am lucky to have generous relatives but I can see how people in a more vulnerable position would have a trouble bouncing back from something like this. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Two years ago I ceased being a car owner, and get around on bike and public transit almost exclusively. This has mostly been a quality of life choice, I would rather experience my City in this way than by driving through it. I also want to contribute to our society's evolution away from car-based transit. I don't want my story to scare people away from riding bikes, I still do, although more cautiously than before. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I am writing this to fill people in on what this year has been like for my wife Sarah and I, the legal issues are settled so I don't need to be careful about what I say. Mostly I would like people to be careful on the roads. I am as guilty as anyone else at times but I am mostly talking to drivers, to stop cutting corners and taking chances, pay attention and SLOW down. The life you save could be my own.</span></div>

I structured the class around a DIY principle, of giving my students the tools to screen prints on their own. They stretched their own screens, taped, coated and exposed screens, creating their own positives by hand and using the paper stencil method. The immensely talented <a href="http://usingmyhands.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">Cody Frost</a> came and shared his work and working method with the students. They printed large editions considering the time frame and were able to master many of the basics of printing and registering multiple color screen prints. I owe much to the hardworking KALA Interns, Hailey, Lauren and Janelle who's help was critical to making the class a success. The students' final project was a Bestiary print exchange based upon Jorge Luis Borges' <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0143039938/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=1439550999&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=08S1RGYP7MTMFD4N6GV1&tag=acleint-20">Book of Imaginary Beings</a>. Each student interpreted a passage describing a beast in their own way in a two color print utilizing a split fountain or duotone blend stroke.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">One of my main goals with Centering the Margin as the it evolved, has been to use the concept to draw parallels between works that may seem outwardly very different. When I first proposed this show to Root Division, my initial group of artists; friends, colleagues and Bay Area Artists who’s work I admire, was emphatically visual and almost all 2 dimensional works. With Root Division’s help a call for entries was initiated to which we received over 100 entries. It is perhaps a testament to Root Division’s profile that the process of culling a group of 10 to 11 artists from this pool was excruciating due to the universally high quality of the entrants. This process allowed me to flesh out and expand the concept with a diversity of practice and media in exciting and unexpected ways.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">In <i>Gravel Bank</i> and<i> Small Hil</i>l, part of her series of photographs named<i>“We are all unique and </i>everything is new.”, Susanna Corcoran makes us alive to physical phenomenon that go unnoticed mainly due to our alienation from the physical landscape. With the humble tools of milk and food coloring, Susanna’s un-manipulated photographs document her interaction with bodies of water, large and small, setting up disorientating juxtapositions of scale with ephemeral gestures redolent of analog film special effects. Their strangely harmonious yet disquieting presence in the landscape is, in the artists words, “intended to at once seduce, disorient, confuse and create a sense of floating, ambiguity and wonder.”</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Michael Ryan uses the clear plastic of bubble packaging and plastic water bottles as a medium and subject. His soaring sculpture exalts this materials intended for an ephemeral function, containers meant to shuttle products from display to consumption and in so doing quotes abstract forms that seemed to be borrowed from modernism. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Sarah Newton uses a kind of drawing technique associated with Renaissance drawing (drawing on toned ground with highlights and dark media) and later employed by 19th century American artists to depict a frontier that was transitioning to tourist landscape. Sarah employs this archaic drawing technique to depict the uniform landscaping and architecture of the ultimate interstitial space, the freeway rest stop. Her jarringly sublime depictions of this space is solidly at odds with the travelers experience of these spaces, as a nominal expression of public space but mostly a place for human and dog to address pressing bodily functions.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Anna Kell, in her paintings <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Johnson City Corner Scrap</i>, and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Faux Scrap,</i> is acting on her obsession with the ubiquitous urban artifact of the discarded mattress. Our relationship to these objects is infused with our intimate awareness of their tactile properties. It is jarring to see an object that is party to our most private moments (the marriage bed, the death bed) abandoned by the side of the road, abject in its stained and usually damp state. Anna plays a visual sleight of hand with a confusion of <span style="color: #1a1a1a;">trompe l'oeil </span> and collage while playing upon the uncanny similarity between a painting support and a mattress.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">With <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Centering the Margin</i> Byron Peters takes his project t<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">wo tears flow quick in succession</i> to its first sanctioned venue. His tiny sculptures imitate a type of animal waste that is a common signal of pest infestation and normally discretely places these sculptures in public, private and commercial spaces such as “The Federal Reserve, SFO, United Airlines, picture frames returned to IKEA and other retailers, California College of the Arts, selected personal homes, and a wide variety of commercial settings”. He documents the reaction to these sculptures in such as increased sanitation and “temporary infrastructures.”, hoping to reach a breaking point in these systems. Although humor is inevitably bound up in this work, Byron’s intent is not pranksterish. He wishes instead to “invert...power relationships” and point up the dissonance between capitalism’s “denial of shit”* and the reality of an economy predicated upon a cycle of endless consumption and waste.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">In her series,
“Bookmarks” Lizzy Cross scans pages from books removing the text and extracting
only the notes, drawings, highlights and underlining added by previous readers.
She then layers the result in a digital print. For Lizzie the final piece
“illustrates the dead end conversation the reader has with the book.” In a
broader sense these works stand
for the experience for any audience of any creative work, signifying our

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">For this show Eric
Theise has adapted his 16 millimeter film <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;">"To No End Gathered"</span> . The film documents an exposed wall in
downtown San Francisco and the mesmerizing play of shadow and light on tattered
wallpaper from long disused interior spaces revealed for the first time in
decades. Such spaces are literally in between in the way of human tissue.Ghost walls like this pop
up from time to time in cities, a briefly giving a glimpse into the past that is usually subsumed by the
city’s constant need to evolve and repurpose itself. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">Devon Tsuno takes as the
subject of his paintings the weed and trash strewn fences and empty lots of
greater Los Angeles, his native city. Devon’s painting technique, a daring
layering of stenciled acrylic and spray paint provides a physical metaphor for the layered aged surfaces
and overlapping uses of these disused urban spaces while his pallet evokes the
distopian fever dream that is contemporary Los Angeles. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">In “Alternate Route Project” Jason Adams
navigates peripheral architectural spaces using techniques derived from
bouldering, a technical, low altitude permutation of rock climbing. This act
and the accompanying manual are intended to activate areas within public spaces
(in this case the Clemson University Campus) that are not intended for use. For
Jason, these “quiet interventions” are significant for stimulating new dialogs
between the architecture and its users, and serve as analogs for the act of
stepping outside perceived boundaries and social norms that define the
parameters of free speech in the public square. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Tomlinson has excerpted her video piece <i>Apophenia for the exhibition..</i> In
this four channel looped video Cara builds structure and rhythm from the
seemingly random and chaotic visual and auditory cues of everyday existence. By
isolating these rhythms Cara disarms us into a realization of the sensory
cacophony we cancel out just to get through our day. The power of this piece is
to trigger in us an unavoidable sense of loss at that fact.

Johnston’s work embodies the concept behind the show through her recording of
natural processes that mark the passage of time but slip unnoticed. In “Two
Weeks in July” Robin textile the records tidal activity of an eponymous period
in 2009 in the Marin Headlands. “Undercurrent” records seismic activity in
nearby Sausilito. Robin reifies this obscure data by translating it (in her
time at Headlands) on a full sized loom, a task which, as I can attest from
first hand experience, when performed within the unfinished walls of the
Affiliate studios there, feels like it’s own natural phenomenon. </span>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Michael
Hall uses the accouterment of film-based photography
and specifically the snapshot, a physical artifact that has been ushered out by
the digital as subject for his oil paintings. Infused with nostalgia for those
of us of a certain age, the envelopes formerly used to contain snap shots
recall the built in waiting period and sense of expectancy between the shutter
click and a visit to the photo-mat, a period of time obliterated by the digital
photograph. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Keith
Southern addresses the revolution in photography brought
about by the ubiquitous camera phone. This technology has literally made
everyone a photographer, even if the images generated never graduate from
binary to physical form. Keith uses this truly ephemeral medium to catch
fleeting moments of light in extremely banal settings, centering the object of
his interest with a minimal amount of intentional framing. In so doing he
embraces the unschooled nature of cell phone photography and short-circuits the
preciousness of the photographic print.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">In "The events of
the past few hours." Christine M. Peterson uses the carousel slide
projector to investigate her interest in “visualizing the peripheral components
of what we understand as image.”
with the use of subtly manipulated slides and manipulation of this
machine’s “base” functionality. The carousel projector itself is a fraught
object, either as a repository of nostalgia as Don Draper would have it, or as
the bane of art lecturers, art history students and bored dinner guests of the
last few generations. By removing image and focussing instead on subtle shifts
in the blank image and artifacts of the carousel’s now arcane technology,
Christine questions assumptions about the static nature of memory and reminds
us of the fleeting nature of technologies we may presently take for granted.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Chris Thorson creates a simulacrum of a space that
can be found adjacent to any workplace, AA meeting, art studio or bar; the ad
hoc smokers’ lounge. As Chris depicts it, this space is trash strewn and
gritty, a physical rebuke to its user, that 21<sup>st</sup> century social
outlier, the smoker. A closer look will reveal that the materials used in
Chris’s installation are hand crafted from fine art materials and hand-woven
silk. While on one level she is making a sow’s ear from a silk purse, Chris is
also acknowledging that one person’s abjection is another person’s respite.</span></div>

The goal here is to derive a set of unique prints from a fixed set of shapes and colors. The shapes are triangles and polygons based on a 2 by 3 rectangle. all secondary colors are arrived at through overprinting. <br /><br />This idea is leading me to examine combinatrics, the generation of permutations from a fixed set of conditions.Anthony Ryanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04631104717927905717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512673889542309104.post-5206700560746077922007-12-11T08:08:00.000-08:002008-11-12T17:23:51.985-08:00Studio Update December 2007<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl2T9nKmTCUo2GO-4J0eK_9kAq4LtUvX11iYm7bYW5qglmuvFAqIgh7Kt8kxQG-pXBdM0g98b7BN0Syg3oeqLdMkqh6lOD2rAZDztpvAliH42GVg8XVKpCno1INMNTZOD-A-oU2ZxuyRY/s1600-h/patt.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl2T9nKmTCUo2GO-4J0eK_9kAq4LtUvX11iYm7bYW5qglmuvFAqIgh7Kt8kxQG-pXBdM0g98b7BN0Syg3oeqLdMkqh6lOD2rAZDztpvAliH42GVg8XVKpCno1INMNTZOD-A-oU2ZxuyRY/s400/patt.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5143264970095006210" /></a><br />This is a linocut that has been repeatedly printed in the three process colors (without black), cyan(blue), magenta(red) and yellow.

The finished piece in my conception should uccupy the gallery in tha manner of posters of wheatpastes. The medium: screenprint on newsprint. The forms are mutated texts taken from junk mailers. The stencil is paper. the piece should feel emphaticaly ephemeral. The economy of the gesture, posting paper on the wall should be palpable. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiszuv7ALyUkUysnUe3VnzZASpzMd07RrtXMKKQit4T6PaxC8i7Ceb57pubrOao-A5nm9147-PxzMkrrQMJsVH4Uflr_nfbe3KNZqnqCg52tiFeNLZtZ9OyE-uZVMbdYRpDIiei4aF89io/s1600-h/IMG_0385.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiszuv7ALyUkUysnUe3VnzZASpzMd07RrtXMKKQit4T6PaxC8i7Ceb57pubrOao-A5nm9147-PxzMkrrQMJsVH4Uflr_nfbe3KNZqnqCg52tiFeNLZtZ9OyE-uZVMbdYRpDIiei4aF89io/s400/IMG_0385.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5143265859153236498" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYUuZoaZsgVSkgxWK97rqfcKcr9QZ8uXoe8riKNchsAXVyCaByfnUoKg-e_y1GLe72z5b79_7SbNptD4qWcxdi0aTXdbD8xlB5oFs8-paNFg212clrfB0v-h4FODlEVZeML46j7o282Ps/s1600-h/IMG_0370.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYUuZoaZsgVSkgxWK97rqfcKcr9QZ8uXoe8riKNchsAXVyCaByfnUoKg-e_y1GLe72z5b79_7SbNptD4qWcxdi0aTXdbD8xlB5oFs8-paNFg212clrfB0v-h4FODlEVZeML46j7o282Ps/s400/IMG_0370.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5143265863448203810" /></a>Anthony Ryanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04631104717927905717noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8512673889542309104.post-64504585093998702892007-10-10T21:57:00.000-07:002008-11-12T17:23:52.855-08:00Studio Update, 10/9/07<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj44i9NBgFonbCgR9D9KpxSGke2d-eY2uIz30IP5saMj2NEYsGF9iEbNKR5dzrLKDNNae0OSoE5Lhd_aaDLgS2SwOpvDKb-KcKrc9Y6PpXju9tdOjhhVem3b1Pb5ZVX0Iam5qCv9GlCn_M/s1600-h/stubcolor.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj44i9NBgFonbCgR9D9KpxSGke2d-eY2uIz30IP5saMj2NEYsGF9iEbNKR5dzrLKDNNae0OSoE5Lhd_aaDLgS2SwOpvDKb-KcKrc9Y6PpXju9tdOjhhVem3b1Pb5ZVX0Iam5qCv9GlCn_M/s400/stubcolor.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5119946810471031522" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpY-xTXDcIJn1ROmgmqYIuvPvFZLpnWcfywR77KAiMWdGfCCC-Pk_BpedV-sXcbYEaQWZyxtyfhMVm09q1o4GHLSqHD4q7Y8k0kuHlGl2OBMxLXRyhZvG0KMujTu3506dCat3vLB-64O8/s1600-h/IMG_0261.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpY-xTXDcIJn1ROmgmqYIuvPvFZLpnWcfywR77KAiMWdGfCCC-Pk_BpedV-sXcbYEaQWZyxtyfhMVm09q1o4GHLSqHD4q7Y8k0kuHlGl2OBMxLXRyhZvG0KMujTu3506dCat3vLB-64O8/s400/IMG_0261.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5119946819060966130" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie65lP6Z8wodgP1xezF4mG3FRtu3LRreqjG8l_3CniVwbbUEn1gXfeeqfT4kQ2XcrfdA8XJfHJkErsYNN3zuvaTs1zgS9cNn7LWPNtHKI5Rue9w481ke0buxYsXtZ9N_1LPz9K8R1VUz8/s1600-h/IMG_0294.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie65lP6Z8wodgP1xezF4mG3FRtu3LRreqjG8l_3CniVwbbUEn1gXfeeqfT4kQ2XcrfdA8XJfHJkErsYNN3zuvaTs1zgS9cNn7LWPNtHKI5Rue9w481ke0buxYsXtZ9N_1LPz9K8R1VUz8/s400/IMG_0294.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5119944409584313010" /></a><br />I am currently working on my thesis project at SFSU. Very much inspired by Victor de la Rosa's pattern class at State, my experience teaching design this summer at CSSSA I've decided to attempt to try a new (for me) approach to studio work that would incorporate traditional print media. To this end, I am working within a self imposed set of restrictions starting with everyone's favorite, the grid, and employing various arbitrary methods of image aquisition, towards a series single or large work in a way that will upset, confound, eschew, my normal working process. This is working. I am alternately excited and lost, casting about for a way forward, but always working towards something. This was the point, the struggle now is to justify any further progression of the process within the spirit of the project. <br />Here is the limitations: <br />a one foot grid: the work will consist of single units of this size, relief prints, screen prints, the images are derived from various methods: automatic drawing excercises, extreme close ups of digital images, texures recording everyday events<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDvWlH5S3lKtj1skwKGprj22tAzHxu-k2jsunx0P4gJ9x_8FbANR0q-7dJmrdH3gN9oiaIbgeP6CxpV8QgEgy9P58Q4w1Z2IVnkrimV1rXwBl3K-oGckL9InG4r0KnJ7q01Jb97WSFLLs/s1600-h/IMG_0293.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer;
