Being invited to enhance conversations at a conference.
May 4th
Good conversations on the bus enroute to a meeting, and in getting a ride back from a new friend. It was so much more rewarding than driving out by myself. Imagine looking forward to a bus trip! When’s the last time that happened?
Being invited to a workshop with very interesting people.
Found out that Loni’s students can write their provincial exams in August if they don’t complete their course work by mid-June.
Hung the drying out for the first time this season.
Bringing some tunes that got everyone involved in a jam.
Peter in the locker room told me a wonderful article on ‘Committing sociology’ by Michael Adams. This countered Stephen Harper’s edict to react, legislate and punish rather than ‘commit sociology’ ( ask questions, explore causes)
I remembered by key before biking off to the library and the gym. Hearing these reminders saves a lot of wasted time and effort.
My grandaughter left her husband with their small children to quickly do a little shopping up their street, on her bike. When she got to the corner stop sign, a taxi, crossing her street, stopped and waved her on. She waited for some pedestrians then slowly started. The taxi impatiently zoomed ahead and knocked her off her bike. In 30 seconds all this happened: she yelled at him, he stopped and opened his door, she pulled him out and knocked his turban off, two policemen appeared and one talked to the driver and the other carried her slightly damaged bike home with her, phoning her husband to get out some first-aide bandages. When they got home, the police talked to them for a couple of minutes, didn’t write anything, gave them a high-five and ran back to his car. My grandson straightened the bike fender and put in some new spokes and thebike is ok now. A harmonious accident!
I went to a hardware store with another artist. Normally I feel rather out of place in such a shop. This one is huge, full of power tools and lots of weird stuff I have no idea about.
As we went along our conversation was all about what you can do with bits of what we saw. He would make a magnificent large string based sculpture. I myself saw a glass brick I just had to have! We both looked at the same objects in a completely creative way and saw uses for them beyond what they were created for.
I am now drawing figures based on the reflections of glass. Sort of how we as people filter or views and expectations. He is creating an amazing round sculpture out of rope, pipes and bits and bobs I don’t know the name of. We saw the same objects and created art out of the ordinary.
