Sometimes work just makes itself if you look in the right places.
This is a map of Tanzania, taken unadulaterated or redacted direct from a corporate presentation, devoid of place names, topography or any other distinguishing features.

Yesterday I received one of the nicest emails ever from a student:
“Over the past year, my understanding of “art” has been completely deconstructed and rebuilt.
I used to believe that art was a privilege reserved for the naturally gifted.
Now, I’ve come to see it as a form of deep engagement with life — a continuous process of questioning both the inner self and the external world.”

How quickly things move from one activist group being banned to any visible sign of support for Palestine being proscribed.
