Hey Mom! As it turns out the link that I had bookmarked is, evidently, not the one that leads to your current web projects, so I haven't been able to look at all of your content. However, I've explored your blog and I think it looks great! I think you should cross-pollinate a bit and post content from your other websites onto your blog - not everything, of course, but perhaps a few choice bits? I'm not really a fan of the tell-all blogs as I'm never sure if they're fueled more by narcissism or simplicity as to the state of the author's privacy, but they say that privacy doesn't exist as it used to anymore. Now it's more about being one more bit in the sea of info; visible but imperceptible because of the sheer volume of what can be seen.
Send me the link to the rest of your work; I'd like to have the proper address bookmarked.
Hey Mom, just wanted to leave a comment on your video project to say that it looks great! You do a lovely job of integrating the postcards in the background and the toy trains in the foreground and I'm particularly fond of the dissolves; it's a nice way to progress the visual narrative given the mixed media format. Very tight overall. It is very entertaining to see my old train set in use again! And, of course, to have one of the stories that has always illustrated my memories brought to motion in a bricolage of fragments that are also from my childhood.
I hope you have fun during the end of the semester; the portfolio is looking great!
