Sidewalk Chalk: Multiple Levels of Meaning
http://corvus-chalk.blogspot.com/2009/08/multiple-levels-of-meaning.html
Saturday, August 8, 2009. Multiple Levels of Meaning. How do you set things up to have people invest their heart in something? We went to Cuddy Family Midtown Park yesterday for their Summer Festival in the Park. When a plaza invites you to do that? Yesterday, other than the programmed activities, people just seemed to be enjoying being in a park that allows (and encourages) unprogrammed enjoyment. The sunshine certainly didn't hurt.

Sidewalk Chalk: The Vogue of Branding
http://corvus-chalk.blogspot.com/2009/05/forcing-character.html
Sunday, May 24, 2009. The Vogue of Branding. Whether trying to create 'districts' downtown (SONO - South of Nordstroms. sigh), or superimposing character on a neighborhood, is there a current vogue for naming things? The idea of 'branding' a few blocks of downtown seems a bit much like hoping that if they name it, it will come to fruition. I think in other places, there's a bit more of an organic development for such things. They gather momentum and a name happens when it should. May 29, 2009 at 10:32 AM.
