Notes for Students
or
White Swan

I should say, it will be:

Romanticism, Realism, Modernism, Post-Modernism… where on Earth are we? We are on Earth, and it is a very strange place. Read about movement and momentum building among the arts.
Concept: Cenci Preshow.
This morning I re-rediscovered the Cenci preshow CD that Travis burned me back in 1/2000. Almost every track plays. In fact, I almost jumped right out of my seat the moment that the trumpet blast from the end of the murder scene came on.

Concept: Exploring the South Bronx.
I had my camera, but since I mostly just take street shots anyway, and there are plenty online (for example, through the Bridge and Tunnel Club, I’ve tried just to walk and take in the scenery. I started out at Yankee Stadium, since the main reason I’d come up here was to exchange last years rained-out Tigers tickets for this years hopefully-sunny Tigers tickets.

Diary: Submission Rejection #2.
I received Submission Rejection #1 in 1999, so it’s been a long time since I’ve been through this process. Within the next few months, I’ll probably accumulate a large number of rejections and, one hopes, a few acceptances. That’s the way it works.
