did you know Glenn Danzig studied photography at NYU Tisch?
I never got tipped off to that in the alumni literature
Apparently Danzig went through my program! I’m going to start sending him coded messages through the photography alumni listserv.

Pigeons in the rafters, gophers in the garden. Grad school is full of wild animals.
Wednesdays are my favorite days, I think. No work, so I can rise at my leisure. Then I go out to the studios and sit in the sun and talk with an incredible group of people. Many Wednesdays, like today, I’ll have a studio visit from a faculty member or a guest. Then I go home and eat dinner with my husband.
I am so lucky to have the life that I have. I expected to get a lot out of grad school, but I didn’t expect to like it so much.

“None of Your Business” - Salt-n-Pepa
This video blew my child mind so completely that I still remember the first time I saw it: summer of 1994, in my Aunt Ro’s basement in Baltimore. Sex positive messages! Ladies in charge! New York accents! Salt-n-Pepa only gets better with time.

The class I’m a TA for is an advanced photo class, and we’re teaching the students to use large format cameras. Each student has been given a 4x5 camera to check out for the quarter. Madness!
I wish I’d had a class like this one as an undergrad—when I was in school, some of my professors did large format demos in class, but I never had the opportunity to play with one on my own. As a result, large format seemed mysterious and scary for a long time, and I didn’t get comfortable using it until I was well out of school.

A troop of wild mountain gorillas recently turned a typical ecotourism encounter upside down when the animals paid a visit to a tented camp in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
Video footage, now gone viral, shows baby and adult gorillas approaching U.S. tourist John J. King II, sitting with him, and even grooming him as he sits in quiet amazement—right next to a giant male silverback gorilla.
At first, “this baby kind of grabbed my arm in a very gentle way. I just can’t tell you how gentle it was. It was like a young child touching your arm in a way that’s very endearing. (You can read more about the experience on NationalGeographic.com.)
To add to the list of things things that turn me into a ridiculous, weepy woman (along with anything to do with US soldiers, 3 out of 4 episodes of Sports Night, and the music of Loudon Wainwright III).
