The kiss was so much a part of the routine that it embarassed him to withhold it.

Title Quote; Faith Baldwin

As usual I finish the day before the sea, sumptuous this evening beneath the moon, which writes Arab symbols with phosphorescent streaks on the slow swells. There is no end to the sky and the waters. How well they accompany sadness!

All emotions are pure which gather you and lift you up; that emotion is impure which seizes only one side of your being and so distorts you.

My darkness has been filled with the light of intelligence, and behold, the outer day-lit world was stumbling and groping in social blindness

jacquline rush lee.

"As an artist I am inspired by the materials, colors and forms that I find in my everyday environment. I am particularly drawn to objects that record physical processes or bear the imperfections and scars of life. Intuitively chosen, these objects suggest layered metaphors of knowledge and corporeality as an embodiment of the transitory nature of the body, thoughts, memories, or one’s life experiences.

Each body of art work that I create is a deeply personal and visual representation of events, philosophies and transformations that have shaped my life. Often when I am working I am not always aware of this directly-- but in hindsight I seem to be guided by materials that consciously or unconsciously trigger thoughts and emotions. These recurring or transient themes manifest themselves in art works that express ideas in veiled layers of meaning." jacquline rush lee

Title Quote: Hellen Keller

Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance?

"Wood joinery is functional. In the past the joinery was all made by hand. For this it was kept relatively simple. With the present day machines it is possible to make these joints faster and more accurate. Joinery made in this way is decorative as well as functional.

With this in mind there were several ways to go. The idea lends itself for different options such as child furniture with the joinery being a story, a more technical approach where the joint itself is the instruction manual. Or a subtle visual joy where the joints are beautiful and functional.

The result is a desk completely made with a CNC Router. With the joints as the decorative element in it. The desk is designed to show the joinery and give it prominent place, it is an example of how this idea of joinery can be implemented in many different ways." -ontwerpduo

Lenka Clayton Artist & Documentary Filmmaker.

"visited every flat and business on the East Berlin street where the gallery LUNA international was situated, to enquire whether the residents had any art at home.

For two weeks I emptied homes and filled the gallery with art." -Lenka Clayton

Title Quote: Santo-ka

I would have rummaged, ransacked at the word; Those old odd corners of an empty heart; For remnants of dim love the long disused, And dusty crumbling of romance!

..gibbous:news...

This reminds me of Cinderellas shredded dress before her fairy princess came ... I always liked the dress her friends, the birds and critter, made for her of found ribbons, remnants and pearls ... Even once in shreds there is an enchantment greater than the perfect white ballgown could ever inspire ... the dress certainly has a soul.

Title Quote: Robert Browning

In the power and splendor of the universe, inspiration waits for the millions to come. Man has only to strive for it. Poems greater than the Iliad, plays greater than Macbeth, stories more engaging than Don Quixote await their seeker and finder.

I have never had the desire to play a video game until now ....

Title Quote: John Masefield

"thatgamecompany was founded in the Spring of 2006 by Jenova Chen and Kellee Santiago, two graduates of the University Southern California Interactive Media MFA program. They had worked on several projects together, including the multi-award winning student game, “Cloud,” and decided to continue working together on small, experimental games by forming a game studio that would focus on these projects. At TGC (thatgamecompany) our goal is to make video games that communicate different emotional experiences the current video game market is not offering. We encourage innovation and experimentation and believe that our creative games will appeal to new, yet untapped, audiences." -That Game Company

By filling the cracks of damaged plates, bowls and other ceramic items with the coloured putty, objects are transformed as the cracks create new patterns and illustrations. As a focus on the re-use of objects, the 'Ceramic Putty' allows us to rejuvenate old and broken belongings rather than disposing of these items." -&made

Sabrina Ward Harrison - 100 Bits of the World - True Living Project.

Title Quote: Helene Cixous

"Two years ago I ended up in a field of grass hip high. This is where I began to make the body work that has come to be called The True Living Project. E.E. Cummings said a poet a “someone who is abnormally fond of that precision which creates movement”. Which is to say the highest form of concentration possible: fascination; to report on the electrifying experience of being. On a daily basis we teeter on the edge of humanity losing history through the fading cultural landscape of our country and our interconnectedness as human beings. Though unconscious development and historical neglect. As we have barreled deeper and deeper into a technological / result driven 21st century, now more than ever I do believe we need to be brought home to the presence of our living. To allow the restful validation of your own tender true humanity, may this work be a living ode to our living. I am striving to create both a visual and emotional unfolding through the textural interchange of photography, sound, collage, film and found objects. As you observe, as you listen, may you rest into that place where this moment, and your memory, exist." -Sabrina Ward Harrison

Thus beauty was revealed to man as an occurence on the boundary.
