repository of interesting stuff

Sometimes I use this space to note down things I'll otherwise not remember. I have had various systems for keeping track of such scraps of information; what I like about using a blog is that I'll have access to the information whenever I'm proximate to the Internet. In daily life, that's pretty much all the time.

Snippet #1: work by the MN photographer Paul Shambroom. Apparently I misssed his show in the TC a year or two ago. But his work is in the Julie Saul Gallery in NYC through December 4 and there are two books (neither of which the UMN library owns:

Face to face with the bomb: nuclear reality after the cold war (2003: Johns Hopkins UP)

Meetings (Chris Boot, London, 2004)

Snippet #2: the NYT (Sunday 10/31/04, p AR28) notes the trend toward tearing down Brutalist 60s architecture because 1) people have never liked it (amen, bro!); and 2) it doesn't always work very well. "All 87 of the roofs" of the Orange County NY courthouse leak, for example. In West Palm Beach, the county tore down the 1960s surround to reveal the 1916 structure that had been encapsulated by the later building - the photo series is most interesting (and would be even cooler in time-lapse). I will save this article for my construction management class, because I am thinking of adding a section on intellectual property rights.

I'm glad to see someone else using a blog for reminding them of things...I started mine as a place to put comic strips I found interesting. Now, I've got a desktop full of saved strips, waiting for an appropriate moment...i need to just put them up again. :-)

Yeah, I think often of the potentials (and pitfalls) of reducing the thousands of pounds of paperwork in my life to electron streams. But it just isn't reliable enough yet for really important stuff.
