Art Dova is Back (perhaps in Black)

I’m happy beyond Words. I treated it like a person. There is a whole conversation on my facebook wall about what I should do for the next time around.  And it is so helpful because Art Dova is back!  I feel like I found a close friend or something.  So strange…. Yay!

Art Dova: Forms of Personhood on Facebook

Being Blunt

Ok, I’m female in this.  I’m gossipy and I like looking at my friend’s kids, and makeup, and parties.  Being slightly suspicious, and not male, the first one makes me suspcious.

The Artist’s/Coder education: Blind Contour

Image via Wikipedia I wanted do a series about the art of design, rather than the more practical humdrum side.
