Glued Blue Glass: June 2009
http://margaretswanderings.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 12, 2009. I haven't written in a few weeks. That darn Facebook sure is a time sucker. Plus, I've been living and thinking. Lots of hard thinking. As if the stars aligned to make this opportunity appear for me. It's a drive away and I will need to spend a few nights away from my sweetheart but I already have friends willing to let me sleep on their futon until I figure this all out.

Glued Blue Glass: The Visitor
http://margaretswanderings.blogspot.com/2009/04/visitor.html
Sunday, April 19, 2009. I saw The Visitor. Further thoughts on the film posted a bit later in the day:. Would call, apolitical and disengaged innocence. I'll have to write about Sturken's book at some other point. The book is excellent. This movie looks amazing. Thanks for posting the trailor. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Glued Blue Glass: January 2009
http://margaretswanderings.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 25, 2009. As my blog is about human idiocy as well as its amazing creativity, I thought Chris Jordan's. Work is especially fitting. He currently has a show at the Washington State University Museum of Art that I hope to see. This piece is E. Pluribus Unum and includes the name of one million organizations in the world that are dedicated to peace. With so many, don't you think we humans can get there? Monday, January 19, 2009. Here is a wonderful example of art's transformative power.

I blog about the amazing beauty and creativity that exists on this earth as well as the human idiocy that may very well destroy it.

Proposal on Veiling Practices. Towards a social history of the burqa ’. October 5, 2006. Posted by Iramz under Reprints. Wonderfully engaging and yet delightfully unsettling mediated, largely Westernized representations of Muslim women, Fatema Mernissi’s book, Scheherazade goes West: Different Cultures, Different Harems is a must read for anyone with curiosity regarding women from the Arab world. An extract from the first chapter, The Tale of The Lady With the Feather Dress. The Thousand and One Nights.

September 05, 2006, Indian Express. Black Veil: Towards a Social History of the Burqa’.
