Thanks Michael! With regard to my creative output – there’s something on the horizon that I’ll share news about when it’s ready, (hopefully this week)and it relates to those discussions we had about getting our stuff ‘out there’.

Actually I found the quote on the clock very romantic, Shelley. Your work is developing much more power. Keep on moving forward my friend,____Michael

Well you say Shelley,”“out of the norm.” That is the way it should be. [smile]

The digital debate is a thorny one. i must say, I don’t know it can be argued that you put it in a photography exhibition. It’s clearly not a photograph – by definition a photograph is “…An image, especially a positive print, recorded by a camera and reproduced on a photosensitive surface….”
Whilst digital art can transform conventional mediums such sculpture, painting etc, and even photography, the definiton of ‘art” itself is highly controversial.
If you take the latin (skill, craft) and indo-european (arrangement)origins of the word, we can assume that this means art is whatever is described as having undergone a deliberate process of arrangement by an agent. In this case, you, Shelley! The philospher Heidegger theorized that art was the means by which we achieve self-expression, and your work is just that, your self-expression, so if they try to disqualify you, quote him!
