Monday, November 29, 2004 Rick Steves at The Savvy Traveller Bookstore Rick Steves spoke at the Savvy Traveller bookstore tonight, read more and go to this drawing's permanent home here. posted at 9:53 PM Wednesday, November 24, 2004 Brandy as an 8 I just sent out an invite for my eighth annual open houses in the Brandypshere. Inspired by the 8, I made the above illustration for it. I'm really fond of it, as long as folks don't think I birthed the gift. posted at 10:45 AM Sunday, November 21, 2004 posted at 11:22 PM Friday, November 19, 2004Illustration FridayI thought I'd take a crack at Penelope's Illustration Friday. She posts a word and anyone can take a visual crack at it. I've been wanting to do more with Ico since the first installment of Iconophilia. This seemed like a good way to show Ico some lovin'. This week, "regal." 
posted at 10:39 PM Monday, November 15, 2004Sorry Everybody.I had heard buzz about the site SorryEverybody.com, but hadn't seen it until my friend Alise sent the link today. I've looked at all 425 pages so far. Don't think you need to go that far, but I do encourage anyone feeling low post-election to visit. The 49% is very well represented. It is 12,000+ images expressing sadness, regret, anger, dumbfoundedness, comaraderie and forgiveness. It's interesting to see what kind of signs people will hold up to themselves, often covering their mouths, letting the paper speak for them. Seeing all these faces looking straight at you is powerful. So is writing on the body. I appreciated the directness of the number of people who represented their states with sad faces. Straightforward. Strangely, a very large number of puppies and children are sorry too. I suppose they are the friends to the stick-out-your-lower lip crowd. I don't know how many pages in until I saw a response from another country. It was very touching. It's neat (I'm running out of adjectives) to see people represent their county, percentage of votes, state and country. They photograph themselves, but sign Brazil or Austria or Germany. A sweet response was from a Austrian on page 375 who said: "p.s. My heart ist bigger than my english." My response:  In Esperanto, "I'm sorry." Below it reads, "Fear doesn't rule me." As far as I could see, it's the first Esperanto response. Though I know only the tiniest bit of Esperanto, it's important to me what it represents. A universal second language meant to help people meet halfway and communicate. Be part of a world community. posted at 4:13 PM Tuesday, November 09, 2004 Peter Greenaway at the Chicago Humanities Festival Here's my notes from Greenaway's talk tonight.
