INVITATION


I haven't written much in a while. This is mostly because I have been occupied with preparing for a 'major' performance come end of July.

I have been invited to present a performance art piece at the 28e Symposium international d'art contemporain de Baie St-Paulin Baie Saint-Paul, Quebec. This event is reputedly among the most important art events of its kind in North America, and it is, indeed, a great honor to have been invited.

A component of my planned performance is something that doesn't happen within the performance. It is a website, in this case, a blogsite, that facilitates the functioning of the rest of the other components and which allows the work to further evolve beyond the actual performance itself.

I have been working on this blogsite. This is something I had long wanted to do (work on web design) ever since it was clear that graphic design was going to grow up with internet, whether or not the designers grew up with it. But I just didn't have a compelling enough project to work on. Now, this opportunity.

And, this invitation.

Please take a few minutes to drop in on, www.rowtodrownsos.blogspot.com

Then I need your feedback, especially on whether the links work (particularly the video and slideshow links). Try out the CONTACT ME and the MESSAGE REPLY/COMMENT FORM link. You can put 'test feedback' as subject on both (or on the MESSAGE REPLY/COMMENT FORM this can be the message number).

You can also say something about the design should you be inclined to comment on this part of the blogsite.

This being a blogsite i will post regularly here. At least I will try.
I will also take the liberty to send you these as soon as they are posted. Of course, you can always unsubscribe.

Lastly, please include in your feedback your machine (especially if its a mac), operating system and browser. These will help much in pinpointing problems and issues with the blogsite.

Enjoy and daghang matsalam!
