I have some concepts that I would like to add to your game design, it sounds really awesome!
I'm so into this!
Hi Michael,
I like your thinking. It starts at the edge and goes further. We are coming to USA west coast in March April 2013. A visit might be a great way to move this conversation forward. What city are you in? you can write me at clinton at nextculture dot com.
What if this were like World of Warcraft a little.
Is it possible that we could get all the people in this site who want to make self help games/world changing games/educational games/ job hunting games...and build a new platform that changed the game of life so that we could do all of these things?
I do see a lot of different methods being offered which might conflict, but the essential values are the same. So now I'm curious, with all these like minded individuals... why are we a community...instead of a game design company. Because it kinda seems like I'm seeing the same mission statement reflected back at me with a large chunk of the groups on this forum alone. Surely by now we have enough people on here to do it ourselves?

Did The Pope Say That Condoms Are Acceptable Recently?
Of course the media does not understand nuance, theology, or the Church.
This is an opportunity to teach, we should use it.
Here are some good articles about what is really going on:
2 comments:
- Brian, aka Aluwir, aka Norski said...
Thanks for the reality check. This rumor is getting 'better' by the hour, it seems.
Also - I appreciate the link list in your post.
Now, shameless self-promotion: my take on this silliness: "Condoms, a Book Review, the Pope, and Getting a Grip," in A Catholic Citizen in America. I've added a link to this post, BTW.
My hope is that the more tech-savvy Catholics, at least, check out the somewhat anticlimactic reality behind today's rumor.
- Jae said...
Dear Catholic Folks,
Get the REAL STORY and not the spin from the media, here are some good catholic links:
The Holy Pope could just have CITED those acts of the male prostitutes in using condoms, but he actually does NOT approve or adhere to that. He just CITED the thinking and intentions of those male prostitutes, but the Pope does NOT actually laud and praise those acts by the prostitutes because in the first place their sinful acts are abominable in the eyes of God.

Ejaculation is "the emission of semen to the exterior, resulting from the contraction of muscles surrounding the male internal urogenital ducts" (Medline's definition). It is closely connected to the male orgasm. Sexual behaviour has components of rewarding behaviour, and ejaculation appears to be the most reinforcing component. Little is known about the neurochemical basis of this rewarding experience. Some relations to opioids and their receptors have been shown (Coolen et al. 2004).

American Psychological Foundation
To fight the spread of domestic violence, the American Psychological Foundation (APF) recently awarded a $20,000 Violence Prevention and Intervention Grant to Capstone Behavioral Health Inc., a community mental health agency in Omaha, Neb.
The APF grant, first offered in 2003 to advance violence-prevention research and programming, will enable Holly Filcheck, PhD, director of psychology at Capstone, to empirically evaluate a cognitive-behavioral program she now uses with male abusers who are referred by courts, judges and hospitals.
The treatment program, known as the Domestic Abuse Counseling Center Model, teaches patients to "think, act and feel:" Through written exercises, role-play and homework assignments, the patients learn first to approach events from a logical level (think), before they make a choice (act) and then finally reflect on their emotions (feel).
What's unique about this model, says Filcheck, is that unlike some other domestic violence education, it incorporates research about how males are socialized differently from females and have distinct gender roles, she adds. For example, part of the curriculum focuses on emotions and how males are often not as encouraged as females to express their feelings.
"We teach the men that feelings are natural and a normal way to react to situations," says Filcheck. "We teach people to [make] requests [of their partners] and negotiate rather than manipulate or use force to get what they want."
Also innovative is that a male-female team of therapists leads the group sessions, adds Brian Andersen, Filcheck's colleague and director of therapy at Capstone.
"In our area, domestic violence programs are generally run by males, but I think it's important that we have men and women present to teach the abusers how to respect, socialize and work with females," he says.
Before graduate school, Filcheck worked at a Pittsburgh women's shelter, where she learned about the model and later brought it to Capstone. Now, with the help of APF's grant, she'll investigate the effects of an intensive outpatient model in which participants will be randomly assigned to either the model treatment program or the model program with the addition of intensive outpatient therapy services. Both groups will participate in weekly, two-hour group therapy for 16 weeks, and individuals in the intensive outpatient therapy services will receive an additional hour of cognitive-behavioral therapy two or three times a week for 16 weeks.
APF is particularly pleased with the breadth and scope of Filcheck's investigation, adds Executive Director Lisa Straus.
"This grant helps Dr. Filcheck and her community," she says, "but it also has ramifications far beyond her particular scope, and that's one of the reasons why she won."

Nelson Mandela, the former president of South Africa, spent the night in hospital battling a lung infection this weekend.
On Saturday, South Africa officials said Mandela was in "serious but stable condition" with his family by his side.
As of this morning, officials had not released any updates on Mandela's condition.
The 94-year-old Nobel Peace prize winner's "condition deteriorated and he was transferred to a Pretoria hospital," early this morning, according to statement from the office of South African President Jacob Zuma on Saturday.
"The former President is receiving expert medical care and doctors are doing everything possible to make him better and comfortable," the statement said. "President Jacob Zuma, on behalf of government and the nation, wishes Mandela a speedy recovery and requests the media and the public to respect the privacy of Madiba and his family."
In April, Mandela spent 18 days in the hospital due to a lung infection and was treated for gall stones in December 2012.
Families throughout South Africa prayed for Mandela's recovery as they attended church services today.
Priest Sebastian Rousso greeted the faithful at the Regina Mundi church in Soweto, which served as a significant landmark during the anti-apartheid movement. Rousso described Mandela as a symbol of reconciliation and played a key role "not only for ourselves as South Africans, but for the world," The Associated Press reported.
Mandela served as the first black president of South Africa from 1994 to 1999.
In 1993, he received a Nobel Peace Prize for his work in ending apartheid through non-violent means.

McKinnon To Lead TradeFair Group
Daniel McKinnon named VP of events at TFG, taking over for founder, Sean Guerre.
Daniel McKinnon has been named vice president of events at TradeFair Group, a division of Access Intelligence based in Houston. (Access Intelligence is also the parent company of FOLIO:) He will take over leadership of the company from its founder and president, Sean Guerre, Access Intelligence announced Thursday.
McKinnon will manage the group's Houston-based events, including Electric Power and ChemInnovations.
"We were very impressed with his experience," says Heather Farley, business information group president for Access Intelligence. "It's a very broad and diverse mix."
McKinnon was most recently vice president of government events for 1105 Media. Previous to that, he was executive vice president of Messe Frankfurt USA. McKinnon also serves on the International Association for Exhibitions and Events board of directors, sitting on its executive and strategic planning committees.
While his experience with international and government events were factors in bringing on McKinnon, Farley says Access Intelligence does not plan on refocusing itself on those markets.
"We have some presence in Asia and we do have government components," she says, "but it is not indicative of a shift in our strategy."
In stepping aside, Guerre says he is both pleased with the hire and excited to return to his "entrepreneurial garage" now that the time is right.
"Mutual friends in the industry have had nothing but great things to say about [McKinnon]," Guerre says.
When Access Intelligence acquired TradeFair Group from Guerre in 2007, he agreed to remain in a leadership role for an additional three to five years.
"Two years ago, when we were in the depths of a recession, did not seem like a good time for the team, for our brands," he says. "[Now], management structure is in great shape, the team is fully running all of our brands, they're doing organic growth, launching new brands."
Guerre will stay with TFG through mid-January to ease the transition, but is planning to launch a new media company in "related markets" focused on the "continued merging of print, online and live events" in February.
Says Farley: "Sean has been a great guy to work with. He's been extremely generous with his skills and his leadership, so we will miss him and we wish him well."

A group of open-source friendly companies are getting together to build a device that even a mother likely won't love.
Open source has moved way beyond the unwashed masses as big companies dominate the development of the Linux kernel.
MontaVista demonstrates a vehicle dashboard system going from cold boot to "fully operational" in one second. The time may not translate into a desktop OS, though.
The old proprietary-everything approach has failed Sony, causing the company to reportedly look to open-source Google Android to win.
The embedded Linux computing specialist fully acquires joint venture MontaVista Ltd., along with Liberte, a Linux design services company.
Android is for phones, right? One influential partner backing Google's open-source operating system says it'll show up in consumer electronics and cars, too.
Sometimes the best lessons come from our failures. Such was the case with Lineo.
Open mobile networks are a step in the right direction, but mobile operating system developers have just as much work ahead of them as wireless carriers.
Correspondent James Hilliard talks with MontaVista Software about a variety of new Linux-powered consumer devices.
ZDNet's Patrick Houston talks with MontaVista Software about a Linux-based robot designed to carry out basic tasks for elderly people who may need help in their home.

Proven techniques for resolving workplace conflicts!
After years of seeing clients struggling and their businesses suffering with destructive conflicts, Diane Katz developed The Working Circle, a step-by-step process that helps everyone in business resolve conflict in a non-confrontational, creative, collaborative way. - Win at Work! provides you with a no-nonsense guide based on real-life examples of people at pivotal points in their careers. Filled with practical wisdom, it reveals how you can move around the roadblocks that, if left unattanded, can stop you in your tracks. Win at Work! also helps those of us who are uncomfortable with conflict, giving them tools for solving problems in a nonconfrontational manner. This essential guide:
Offers a proven step-by-step process for conflict resolution
Deals with complex business questions about independence, moral values, face-saving, goal-setting, and leadership
Provides easy language for talking through problems and reaching a relatively painless outcome
Putting aside simple band-aid solutions, Win at Work! is your proven resource for the kind of long-term team-building that ultimately makes the difference in business and organizational success.
Books in Brief Summary in HR Magazine
"Do you face up to the issues you have with a difficult working partner or just allow her to keep causing chaos?
A client is furious. Do you clam up and endure the yelling, or do you address it?
Two people in your workplace are at war constantly. Should you stay neutral or get involved?
These are a few of the conflicts that author and consultant Diane L. Katz says employees at all levels may face in their working lives. In Win at Work!, Katz offers a framework for resolving conflicts through a series of questions she calls the "Working Circle."
Katz first examines the roots of workplace conflict, including poorly designed jobs, managers who don't know how to handle conflict, rewards that encourage competition and combativeness, and company cultures that value silence over truth.
She also describes types of workers who instigate conflict for myriad reasons and often unknowingly. Readers learn to identify the loner who doesn't hear others' ideas, the know-it-all who wants to stand out no matter what, the boss who can't delegate and the gossip who unwittingly pits team members against each other.
Katz guides readers toward identifying their own personal styles of conflict resolution through a questionnaire, and then reviews the pros and cons of different personal problem-solving styles.
The author poses eight common challenges and uses case studies to walk readers through the ways participants used her key questions to work through conflicts. Those eight questions start by assessing the situation and figuring out what's negotiable, then move through how participants feel about the situation and what game plan participants want to try."

CES Sexy: Pioneer's concept plasma TV puts the 'flat' back in flat panel
Thought those new LG TVs were thin? Honey, Pioneer's shrunk the flat panel even further with its Advanced Design Kuro Concept plasma TV. I haven't clocked it, but I'm pretty sure the 50-inch set is the thinnest plasma ever, at just 9 millimeters — 0.35 inches — deep. As some clever Pioneer reps pointed out, that's thinner than the iPhone, a slice of bread, or even the odd magazine. While that infinite-contrast Pioneer concept TV was effectively camouflaged in a dark room, this one would go unnoticed in any room if you simply turned it sideways.
But just like its dark brother, this flattened flat panel is only a concept at the moment, with no price or scheduled release date. Other TVs get to keep their self-esteem for a little while longer.

Pigeons surprise the world with glimmer of intelligence
It may surprise you to learn pigeons can count much less understand abstract rules about numbers, but in fact, researchers have proved just that. This skill is something previously only showed in rhesus monkey testing from the 1990's. Pigeons, super smart? Apparently.
According to the pigeon research, which exactly replicated the monkey study, the birds learned the abstract rule of pecking images on the screen in order of number — lower to higher. It took a year for them to learn this, but they mastered it, whether the images varied in shape, color or sizes. In the next phase of the research, when given unfamiliar groups of six and nine, the pigeons — like the monkeys that came before them — demonstrated they could pick the images in the right order.
Damian Scarf, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Otago in New Zealand, was responsible for replicating the experiment with the pigeons, and together with two colleagues reported the implications in the current issue of the journal Science.
They report it is either an example either of different species evolving these abilities separately, or of both the pigeons and primates drawing on an ability displayed by their last common ancestor. Incredibly, that common ancestor would have been around some 300 million years ago before dinosaurs and mammals roamed the Earth.
As reported in the New York Times, Dr. Scarf said if he had to guess, he would lean toward the idea that the numerical ability he tested evolved separately in the species. "I can definitely see why both monkeys and pigeons could profit from this ability," he said.
From gathering food items or keeping track of one's young, on a literal level it does make sense.
But, for those of us who have witnessed pigeons aimlessly walking in circles near curbs or lurking overhead with intent unknown, this newly discovered ability might come as something of a shock especially in context of what is known about other birds.
For example, parrots and macaws can speak; other birds are known to hide stores of food. New Caledonian crows can make and use tools. Similarly, seagulls drop mollusks onto rocks to break them open.
So now pigeons join the ranks of birds displaying abstract intelligence skills.
It should be noted it isn't clear whether other birds might have this math skill as well. Nor, did the research indicate whether they could count above nine.
Either way, now the humble pigeon might get a little bit of respect.

The key with Semin is to get consistency. All too often he disappeared during stretches of an 82 game season and also the playoffs.
IMO, he has the most talented skill set in the league but he has to want to play. I think it benefits him that this is a 48 game season, he shouldn't have too many lulls.
FWIW, I also believe the caps organization is mainly at fault. Sure Semin has his flaws, just like any player but the fact that he is fitting in Carolina just shows how ****ed up the caps organization is.
This is what always happens. The players end up flourishing elsewhere because the caps have no clue how to handle players. Ovie will also be a "rejuvinated" 40+ goal scorer if traded to another organization.

Meray Dard Ko Jo Zuban Milay – Last Episode
So, while Hurricane Sandy was doing her thing outside, I was hoping that my power would stay on, aur light na chali jai, but I guess things aren't exactly ever supposed to work out for me how I want them to, and my electricity went out. I was freaking out because I had just started to watch the last episode of MDKJZM and that is when everything started to screw up. I still had to put up a review for you all to read, and I didn't get to because I had no power.
So why am I telling you this? I feel like MDKJZM's bad luck has rubbed off on me, :D. See, ever since Amna got married to Urooj, every episode has gone downhill, tragedy after tragedy. I guess the last episode was pretty unfortunate as well because the electricity went out literally AS SOON as I started the episode. You guys be the judge.
Anyhow, my thoughts on the last episode are mixed. And that's not exactly a good thing, nor is it a bad thing either. See, I'm glad, SERIOUSLY GLAD, that Amna didn't get married to Azam/Salaar/weirdcreepyguy and that Arifa had saved her life. However, I'm not exactly cool with the part where Amna just visits Zakiyah chachi every now and then, and it has to get really awkward for Amna and Urooj because in my hopeful little mind, they still have feelings for each other. They're both hurt, lonely, and they both miss each other too and I would have liked to see them get back together towards the end so that there would be a full closure for them two. But I guess not :(.
Arifa was AMAZING. This girl went through so much, and right when she was starting to live again, she meets her bad past in the face. Literally. And instead of letting Azam/Salaar/weirdcreepyguy get to her again and bring her down, she slapped him and beat him up. It was wonderful because that was exactly what he deserved. I mean, how are you gonna mess up a girl's life and then go after her sister? Shame on you. Wonderfully done Arifa!!
I was reading Fatima's review on the last episode, and it turns out, that I was thinking the same thing she was talking about when it came to how insensitively Urooj's disability was handled. I'm not going to elaborate more because her review speakes my thoughts so accurately, so here's the link to her review: http://www.dramasonline.com/review-mere-dard-ko-jo-zuban-miley-last-episode/. Enjoy! :)
Why did I continue watching this show until the last episode? I have to say, it was mostly because of the performances of the actors, the OST was perfect, and I really wanted to see how they would go ahead with developing Urooj and Amna's relationship. That's partially why I really didn't like how they got divorced because to me, they were the best part of the show. But guess not….Anyhow, the actors were wonderful, especially Shehrayar Munawar! Without any words, he conveyed his emotions through his facial expressions and hand gestures perfectly! Also, the other cast members were fantastic as well: Sarwat Gillani, Alishba Yousuf, Bushra Ansari, Mohib Mirza, etc….Great job guys! Personally, though, I think Bushra Ansari should act instead of write, because acting just suits her better….and I'm not a person that likes tragedies to be honest
That's basically all I have to say….Let me know what you thought of the last episode!

P.S. If you were in the path of Hurricane Sandy, hope you're alright and that everything's fine Inshallah!

Douglas Stockdale: curator 10 x 10 American Photobooks
10 x 10 American Photobooks, selection by Douglas Stockdale
Over the weekend, the second phase of the 10 x 10 American Photobooks reading room project was provided at the PGH Photo Fair held at the UnSmoke Systems Artspace (Braddock, PA). This is a continuation of a photobook project that was started in 2012 on Facebook, for which 10 curators chose 10 photobooks created by Japanese photographers. For 2013, the 10 x 10 emphasis was placed on American photographers, but limited to books that were published since 1985. There are two groups of curators, those who selected photobooks in which the photobook would be available as a physical object, to be held, read, and time spent at a venue called the reading room. The second group of curators, one of which I was fortunate to be a member of, made their selection of 10 photobooks and provided links on their web site. I had posted my selection of 10 photobooks on my blog The Photobook. which includes links to the reviews of almost all of the books I selected.
The reading room photobooks are now being packed for the final installation at the Tokyo Institute of Photography (Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Japan), which will take place September 11 thru October 6yh (2013).

Jessica Eaton – Polytopes at M+B Gallery
M+B is pleased to present Jessica Eaton's first Los Angeles exhibition, Polytopes. Eaton's latest work views the world through the capabilities of photography using a wide array of experimental, analogue-based photographic techniques such as color separation filtration, additive color theory, multiple exposures, motion blur, in-camera masking, cross polarization and lighting techniques. Building on her highly reviewed series Cubes for Albers and LeWitt (cfaal) with Polytopes Eaton develops more configurations from repeated fragments, constructing sculptural works on sheets of large format film. The haunting, luminescent images bloom and grow before the viewer, the result of layered time and additive color theory. Polytopes runs from November 3, 2012 through January 5, 2013, with an opening reception for the artist on Saturday, November 3 from 6 to 8 pm.
Eaton shapes her latest artistic output "in camera" through multiple exposures and the use of different colored filters. In two new works, cfaal 276 and cfaal 279 the tactile, present nature of the work is exemplified through lush details of textured wood grain and large brush strokes radiantly depicted under added colors, their reflections offering up an engaging dimensionality to the work. Bold, vibrant angels energetically cut across space in Eaton's Tri/Colour/Angles work, the moment of potential, surprise and experimentation revealed at their aligning points. The use of the artist's studio as laboratory further expands in Eaton's Interpolation Dramatizations and RGB Weaves – the artist's analogue take on a digital solution. Through multiple exposures Eaton uses blur and stepped exposures to symbolize the bicubic smoother or Nearest Neighbor – interpolations algorithms used by imaging softwares such as Photoshop. Eaton's process and the fascinating result is a conversation with the world, navigating the forces of time and space the viewer is presented with a striking sense of possibility.
Jessica Eaton (b. 1977, Regina, Saskatchewan) holds a BFA in photography from the Emily Carr Institute in Vancouver, British Columbia. Her work focuses on the possibilities of the medium and is often experimental in nature. Jessica has been the recipient of the Grand Prix du Jury for the Hyères Fashion and Photography Festival 2012, Foam International Photography Magazine Talent Call 2012, the Bright Spark Award for the Magenta Foundation Flash Forward Emerging Photographers from the UK, Canada and USA 2011, "Hey, Hot Shot", Jen Bekman Gallery, 2010 and was awarded a Canada Council for the Arts research and creation grant 2011. Eaton's photographs have been published in numerous publications including Foam, Border Crossings, The British Journal of Photography (cover March 2012), ARTnews (cover image March 2011), BlackFlash, Colour Magazine, Pyramid Power, Hunter and Cook and Lay Flat 02: Meta. Jessica Eaton lives and works in Montréal. This is her first solo exhibition at M+B.

Dylan Vitone and Richard Gilles at dnj Gallery
dnj Gallery is pleased to announce its upcoming exhibitions by gallery artists Dylan Vitone and Richard Gilles. The main gallery will feature "Leisure" by Vitone. Gallery II will display "Towers" by Gilles. These are both artists' third solo exhibitions at dnj Gallery.
"Leisure" includes work from Vitone's "Yellowstone" and "Rutland" projects. In "Yellowstone," Vitone investigates modern society's interaction with nature, capturing the throngs of tourists who flock to the historic park. In contrast, in the "Rutland" project, Vitone explores less mainstream pursuits at Skatopia in southern Ohio. Photographing the skate enthusiasts who camp there, Vitone looks beyond the tough exterior of youth counterculture to find an underlying beauty and naïveté. Together, the projects form a dialogue about the role of leisure in American society.
As with his earlier series, Vitone stitches together several images to create a nearly 360-degree view, which, as he states, "allows [him] to show simultaneously details and relationships at multiple spacial and perceptual levels…." "Working in the tradition of street photographers and social anthropologists such as Milton Rogovin and Bruce Davidson, Vitone makes extended portraits of communities through intimate observations of their everyday rituals." (Leah Ollman, Los Angeles Times, 10-24-08).
Vitone is an Associate Professor in the School of Design at Carnegie Mellon University. He holds a B.A. in Photo-communications from St. Edwards University and an M.F.A. in Photography from the Massachusetts College of Art. His work has been featured in solo and group exhibitions throughout the country and is in the permanent collections of many museums, including the George Eastman House, Rochester, New York and the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C.
Gilles' "Towers" series in Gallery II captures pairs of vertical structures set against stark panoramas with ample skies and low horizons. He views the towers as "sentries standing watch over the landscape" and, with Google Maps to help him scout locations across the United States (including many in California and Nevada), is meticulous about adhering to the rigid formula of pairs. "Towers" is a continuation of Gilles' ongoing exploration of the unnoticed and overlooked, and is an invitation to consider both the condition of the terrain and the symbolism of the structures occupying it.
Gilles earned his B.A. in Fine Arts from San Francisco State University. His work has been exhibited in California and throughout the country and is in the collections of the Southeast Museum of Photography, Daytona Beach, Florida and the University of California, Davis, Richard L. Nelson Gallery & Fine Arts Collection, Davis, California.
SHOW DATES: January 12 – February 23, 2013

Evolving Toward Ecstasy: Matisse Exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art
The following text is an excerpt from the the New York Times. The entire story can be read at:
The great French modernist Henri Matisse (1869-1954) was not a joiner. In the early 20th century he led the brief blitz of the Fauves — those "wild beasts" of fiery colors and blunt textures — but otherwise abstained from the signal movements of modern art.
He communed with artists of the distant or not-so-distant past, from Giotto to Cézanne, and periodically brushed shoulders with Cubism and the work of his chief rival, Picasso. But his main desire was, as he put it, to "push further and deeper into true painting." This project was in every sense an excavation, and he achieved it partly by digging into his own work, revisiting certain scenes and subjects again and again and at times also making superficially similar if drastically divergent copies of his paintings.
His rigorous yet unfettered evolution is the subject of "Matisse: In Search of True Painting" at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, one of the most thrillingly instructive exhibitions about this painter, or painting in general, that you may ever see. As ravishing as it is succinct, it skims across this French master's long, productive career with a mere 49 paintings, but nearly all are stellar if not pivotal works.
Organized at the Met by Rebecca Rabinow, a curator of modern and contemporary art, this exhibition, which is in previews for members through Sunday and opens to nonmembers on Tuesday, sheds new light on Matisse's penchant for copying and working in series. (It was seen in somewhat different versions at the Pompidou Center in Paris and the National Gallery of Denmark in Copenhagen.) To this end, the paintings proceed in pairs or groups aligned by subject: two still-life arrangements with fruit and compote, from 1899; two versions of a young sailor slouching in a chair, from 1906; four views (1900 to 1914) of Notre Dame seen from Matisse's window across the Seine; three portraits (1916-17) of Laurette, a favorite dark-haired model, seen from various distances in a voluminous green robe from Morocco.

Robert Mapplethorpe: XYZ at Los Angeles County Museum of Art
I posted a blog entry about the Mapplethorpe exhibition at the Getty Museum a few days ago. Well, there is a second Mapplethorpe exhibition in Los Angeles at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
The X, Y, and Z Portfolios (published in 1978, 1978, and 1981, respectively) by American photographer Robert Mapplethorpe (1946–1989) summarize Mapplethorpe's ambitions as a fine-art photographer and contemporary artist, reflecting the tripartite division of his mature work: homosexual sadomasochistic imagery (X); floral still lifes (Y); and nude portraits of African-American men (Z). Mapplethorpe's work has consistently provoked strong reactions, notably during the so-called Culture Wars of the 1980s. The exhibition is an opportunity to assess Mapplethorpe's confrontational photographs—with their paradoxical mix of classicizing, austere form and raw, uninhibited content—through three series that defined not only his artistic career, but also a moment in American cultural politics. The exhibition, together with the Getty Museum's concurrent In Focus: Robert Mapplethorpe, celebrates the landmark joint acquisition, in 2011, of the Robert Mapplethorpe Archive by LACMA, the Getty Museum, and the Getty Research Institute.
This exhibition runs October 21, 2012–March 24, 2013

Robert Mapplethorpe at the Getty Museum
A key figure in late 20th-century photography, Robert Mapplethorpe created work with a distinctive tension between opposites: sacred and profane, mainstream and underground, light and dark. From his early Polaroid portraits, to his fashion photography and later controversial work, Mapplethorpe's photographs are well-ordered and emotionally restrained, with dangerously chaotic and sensuous elements below.
Born in Queens, New York in 1946, Mapplethorpe studied graphic arts at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn before dropping out in 1969. He met the musician, poet, and artist Patti Smith in 1967 and they lived together as intimate and artistic partners until 1974. In 1972, Mapplethorpe met two influential curators. John McKendry gave him his first Polaroid camera, with which he made self-portraits and portraits of his friends and acquaintances in the art world. Samuel Wagstaff, Jr. later became the artist's lover and mentor. By the mid-1970s, Mapplethorpe had acquired a medium format camera and began photographing the world of New York's S and M clubs.
Mapplethorpe refined his style in the early 1980s to create elegant figure studies, delicate floral still lifes, nudes, as well as glamorous celebrity portraits. His preference for simple compositions and a sophisticated use of lighting to articulate subtleties of form distinguished his mature work
His career was successfully championed by pioneering photographs dealer Harry Lunn, who along with Robert Miller and Robert Self, published portfolios of some of the artist's most challenging work. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Mapplethorpe's X Portfolio was at the center of an American culture war over whether public monies should be used to underwrite art some deemed obscene or blasphemous.
In 1989, at age forty-two, Mapplethorpe died from complications of AIDS. A year earlier, he had established the foundation that protects his work, promotes his legacy, and supports the causes he believed in, such as art programs and HIV/AIDS prevention and care.

Margaret de Lange featured in Lenscratch.
The following text is from Aline Smithson's Lenscratch.com. You can see the entire blog posting at:
Margaret de Lange lives and works in Norway. She studied photography in Oslo. She has held solo exhibitions among other places in: Tarragona, Brussels, Paris, New York, Stockholm . She was recognized for Best portfolio at the Photo Festival in Arles, France, and with an Honorable mention by the Leica Oskar Barnack Award. She has published two books, Daughters and Surrounded by no one with Trolleybooks (London) .
In her series entitled, Daughters, Margaret presents black and white photographs taken of her two daughters during the summers of their childhood. Though the project began in 1993 and continued through 2002, it wasn't until both daughters were old enough to grant their permission did de Lange take the step of exhibiting the work.
The images depict the two girls enjoying their summers out of doors, barefoot and often bare-bodied, in a dark and grainy, high-contrast style. In the photographs, the children seem to be a part of the nature around them, with dirt and grass clinging to knees and feet, with hoods of animal skin; they become like the creatures of Scandinavian folklore that, as de Lange explains, "were said to appear at twilight, and were always beautiful, but often evil as well." And so we view the daughters, captured as they linger in a hazy half-darkness, in that time between day and night and an age between child and adult, exploring, discovering, and experiencing all of those little adventures which amount to growing up. These "creatures" exhibit their initiated ways through various little clues: dead birds hanging from string, bold stares from beneath fury capes. All together, the effect is unabashedly dark and earthy, yet calm and elegantly matter-of-fact.

Todd Walker "Between Light and Shadow" and Melanie Walker "Wanderlust" exhibitions to open at dnj Gallery
dnj Gallery is pleased to announce its upcoming exhibitions featuring the work of father and daughter, Todd and Melanie Walker. "Between Light and Shadow" in the main gallery will highlight the pioneering work of the renowned photographer, Todd Walker. Gallery II will explore his influence on the photographs of his daughter, Melanie Walker, in her series entitled "Wanderlust." This is dnj Gallery's first exhibition of both artists' work.
Todd Walker was a prolific visionary who rejected a successful career as a commercial photographer to pursue his own artistic ideas using alternative photographic and printing processes and emerging technology. dnj Gallery's exhibition celebrates Todd's unique interpretations of two of the most traditional subjects available: the nude and the landscape. This show emphasizes Todd's concentration on "visual reality" and his desire to take a closer look at details. Consistent with Todd's constant experimentation with different media, the exhibition features silk screens, lithographs, collotypes and digital prints. Many of the pieces showcase the Sabattier technique for which Todd is well known.
Regardless of the medium, Todd's work is about a personal experience. He wrote, "For me, the image from the camera needs to be transformed into a picture. That transformation is an important part of my work. In addition to being involved with the image while using the camera, I must then concentrate that image, with my reaction to the illusions that I have about my environment, and form a concrete picture that attempts to describe and delineate my illusion."
Todd was born in 1917 in Utah and was raised in Los Angeles. He began his career painting sets for movie studios while attending the Art Center School in Pasadena. Prior to his death in 1998, he was a Professor Emeritus at the University of Arizona, Tucson. Previously, he had held positions at the University of California, Los Angeles and the University of Florida, Gainesville. His work is in the permanent collections of prominent museums, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris, and the Center for Creative Photography, Tucson, Arizona.
For Todd's daughter, Melanie Walker, photography facilitates a visual dialogue with her father. In "Wanderlust," Melanie combines images from a decade of travels to investigate experiences of time, place and memory. In creating this series, she was influenced by her father's writing: "I remember a time, I remember a place, I try to return, It is not here. / The time was here, the place was then. I am now, not then. / Place, time and I happened together, but not again."
Melanie Walker is an Associate Professor, Interdisciplinary Media Art Practices, Photography at the University of Colorado, Boulder. She holds a B.A. from San Francisco State University and an M.F.A. from Florida State University. Her work is in the permanent collections of museums across the country, including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and the Center for Creative Photography, Tucson, Arizona. Her work has appeared in numerous solo and group exhibitions.
This show runs November 3, 2012 to January 5, 2013
Artist Reception Saturday, November 3, 6 – 8 pm

Flight logjam could take days to unscramble
Air travelers waylaid by this week's storm could wait days for a flight to their final destinations.
The storm prompted airlines to cancel 7,495 flights Wednesday, said FlightAware, a tracking company. That was on top of nearly 7,000 flights that were canceled Tuesday. And more than 2,000 were grounded for today ny noon, leaving tens of thousands of passengers looking for seats on planes.
Many of Thursday's grounded flights were headed into or out of Chicago's O'Hare International Airport which was crippled by this week's storm, and Houston's Intercontinental Airport which is facing another winter blast of ice and snow Thursday, said Daniel Baker, FlightAware?s CEO.
Fitting passengers onto the next available flight is not easy. Those already holding tickets retain priority, leaving stranded fliers to scramble for empty spots. At a time when the industry has pared flights, jets have few spare seats.
WEATHER: Winter storm smacks cities, businesses
FLIGHT TRACKER: Find a flight in the air or on the ground
TODAY IN THE SKY: Latest air travel news
"If you already have a confirmed seat on a flight for a specific date, they're going to honor that first," said Anne Banas, executive editor of SmarterTravel.com. "It's a situation where you're trying to rebook passengers on already packed planes ... so you have to slot people over time."
Whether they're traveling to Detroit or Des Moines, many fliers must connect through major hubs such as New York City or Chicago, which were hit hard by the latest bout of bad weather. The cascading cancellations and large number of cities paralyzed by the storm mean it may take longer than usual to clear the logjam, some travel experts said.
PHOTOS: Winter storms slam U.S.
STORM TRACKER: Latest weather news, travel, maps
"I don't ever remember 12,000 flights being canceled at one time," because of weather, George Hobica of Airfarewatchdog.com said. It normally takes three to five days for all displaced passengers to get where they need to go, he said. "It was a huge storm, so I think it's going to be harder than in the past."
Some carriers added flights. AirTran, which canceled 179 flights Wednesday, has added seven flights, most to Milwaukee and Indianapolis, to help get back on track, spokesman Christopher White said.
Recent mergers of major carriers — such as Delta and Northwest, and United and Continental — could bode well for stranded passengers.
"It's easier for the airlines to be more creative rerouting people," Hobica said. Delta, for instance, may not have connected passengers in the past through Minneapolis, "which was a Northwest hub, but now they can because it's one big airline."
Unlike winter's first major storm, which struck over Christmas, this week's blizzard comes during a traditionally light travel time. And some passengers may scrap their travel plans, freeing up a space for others.
"Not everybody who was inconvenienced is going to go, because they already missed the cruise ... they missed the wedding," Hobica said.

Founder and President, Freedom to Marry
Just moments ago, the Democratic Party voted to support the freedom to marry as an official plank in the party's platform, its vision for America. The Democrats are now on record as the first major political party in U.S. history in favor of true and full equality for same-sex couples.
Earlier this year, you joined more than 42,000 marriage supporters in signing Freedom to Marry's petition calling on the Democrats to add the freedom to marry to the party platform - and the Party listened. Now is the time for us to say "thank you."
In the next 48 hours, let's show our appreciation to the Democrats for taking this courageous stand by getting 50,000 people to sign Freedom to Marry's "thank you" card to the party's leaders, including President Obama and DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz: Sign our letter now thanking the Democratic Party for including the freedom to marry in the party platform.
In May, President Obama declared his support for the freedom to marry, becoming the first sitting president to do so. He gave a heartfelt explanation to the American people as to how he, like a majority of Americans, had changed his mind and opened his heart to support the freedom to marry - and he spoke of the conversations and values that we know make a difference. Like the marriage plank in the Democratic platform, the fact that the President is on the right side of history will help more Americans rise to fairness, even as Freedom to Marry presses for more wins in November battleground states such as Maine, Minnesota, Washington, and Maryland.
Join us in the next 48 hours in thanking the Democratic Party for speaking up for the freedom to marry and gay families in the party's platform: to sign the letter go to http://freedomtomarry.org/thanktheDemocrats

"It's Gramma," Kitty answered. "I have to go to
Missouri." She opened the closet door and pulled a suitcase
from an upper shelf.
"It's really bad?"
"Peter says she hasn't got much time..."
Kitty opened the suitcase, then sat beside her husband.
She covered her face with her hands, began to shake.
"He put her in the hospital," she said angrily. "He took
her off the farm... Bastard!" She gulped for air and began
to weep in great, painful shudders.
"They're sixty miles from a doctor there," John said
softly, pulling her close. "She'd die at home."
"She's dying now!" She pushed him away and walked
stiffly to the dresser. She began filling the suitcase.
"I'll go with you," John said. He crossed to her, rested
his hands on her shoulders.
Kitty turned and embraced him. She held him tightly to
her. "No," she said, her voice low. "You stay here. Mind
the business."
"The business will wait..."
"Please, John." She touched his lips to silence him. "I
have to go alone."
"I don't know," she answered softly. "Something's
happening. Something important."
She pressed her ear tightly to his chest, holding him,
letting herself be held.
"I'm frightened," she said.
In the stark, antiseptic hospital room, Claire Beaumont
slept on and on.
"She's fallen into a coma," the doctor said.

Another mess for the Boy Miliband to sort out
Whilst farmers in England have been growing more and more desperate as the government fails to honour its promises by paying them on time, or even close to time the staff responsible for sorting out the payments seem to have had other matters on their minds...
BBC NEWS | England | Tyne | Probe into 'naked civil servants'
Civil servants on Tyneside are under investigation amid allegations staff romped around naked in offices and had sex in toilets.
One person at the Rural Payments Agency (RPA) in Newcastle has been sacked after officials began an investigation.
The antics emerged after some members of staff were caught on CCTV cameras.
The RPA is part of the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and administers millions of pounds in agricultural payments to farmers.
The agency said it was investigating claims that staff leapt naked from filing cabinets, had sex in office toilets, held break-dancing competitions during working hours and fought in a reception area.
Thank god it wasn't John Prescott in charge otherwise it would have been worse!

Are students being taught how to write effectively across disciplines and subjects? What is the role of the arts in post-secondary education? How do we instill a sense of entrepreneurship, among other intangibles, in the people walking across the stage each spring?
These difficult questions are increasingly asked at many institutions, including our own. But how to even pose them effectively? An article in Chronicle this week takes on the budding issue of formalized self-criticism in higher education:
In some ways, critical university studies has succeeded literary theory as a nexus of intellectual energy. A dominant tenor of postmodern theory was to look reflexively at the way knowledge is constructed; this new vein looks reflexively at "the knowledge factory" itself (as the sociologist Stanley Aronowitz has called it), examining the university as both a discursive and a material phenomenon, one that extends through many facets of contemporary life.
Critical university studies especially evokes critical legal studies because they both scrutinize central social institutions, and a comparison of the two gives a fuller sense of the new field. Critical legal studies, or CLS as it is often known, began in the late 1970s and became established during the 1980s among a group of American legal scholars who wished to show that the law was not neutral or impartial, but served dominant social and economic interests. In a similar way, critical university studies, CUS, turns a cold eye on higher education, typically considered a neutral institution for the public good, and foregrounds its politics, particularly how it is a site of struggle between private commercial interests and more public ones.
Another similarity is that both fields argue against academic practice as usual. Critical legal studies distinguished itself from standard legal history, suggesting that law was an instrument of its social structure, therefore serving the interests of propertied classes, as well as tried to find ways that law might contribute to more equality. Critical university studies distinguishes itself from the standard history of education or the palliative tradition of "the idea of the university," which projects an ideal image, and analyzes how higher education is an instrument of its social structure, reinforcing class discrimination rather than alleviating it.
