A Brief Explanation

This blog is part of the curriculum for the seminar class, Process to Synthesis taught at Mississippi University for Women. The class is designed to help junior-level art students find coherence in their art, their thinking, their process, and their aesthetics.

As a part of that course; this site will publish lectures, readings, and assignments and will promote discussion. Right now, this site is still being updated and adjusted, though the class has been running since 2014.

So much has happened in the last week but I am still reeling from the news about Lou Reed...

This story is a wide review of Banksy's latest project, his "New York residency", called Better Out than In.  I like the work but I also enjoy hearing clear and supportable criticism of a YBA.  Those darn Brits.... the're good. 

This story about Halloween candy has implications for all art especially the applied designers among us.

a story about Luscious Jackson... it is never too late.

..a story about Neil Gaiman, returning to sandman....

an interview with Ian MacKaye...

In remembrance of Lou Reed.... even the WSJ had to notice...

Can this be true?.. the return of Neutral Milk Hotel..

Chris Burden at the New Museum as reviewed by the Journal...
