After trying his hand at photography, he abandoned the medium in disgust, supposedly proclaiming "photography is great if you're a paralyzed cyclops."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Hockney meant this to be a derogatory statement, but with all due respect, he misses the point. Implicit in his statement is the assumption that photography is lacking because it does not match human vision closely enough. Yet, what is the point of art that shows us the world as we already see it? What Hockney hits on is one of photography's greatest assets, not a weakness. How cool is it for just one minute to be able to see like a paralyzed cyclops? It gives you great power- the power to isolate, to direct the viewer's attention, to ask the viewer to stop and ponder something (or more to the point, &lt;i&gt;a relationship of some thing&lt;b&gt;s&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal;"&gt;) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;they never would in everyday observation. As the photographer, you have the power to determine the exact point in space (even the exact instant in time) at which the cyclops becomes paralyzed. What's even better, only you a David Hockney know the secret- that what results is not the slice of reality that the viewer immediately assumes it to be, but the results of a mythical and highly malleable creature.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

We had our flight delayed out of Detroit, which led to a close call that forced us to sprint across the Philly airport with all of our baggage.  Jenna, the person whose project this is, will be updating this (http://jenjeru.wordpress.com/) blog with pictures, video, and experiences that we have over the next week.  With that, there are some interviews that she has done, research, and overall insight into her project, which is an exploration of the implications of religious upbringing both on one’s sense of self identity and identity within a community.  If this particular subject interests you, she would love to hear comments, feedback, etc!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See you guys on Thursday!

Luckily I found &lt;a href="http://jpgrace.com/blog/2009/03/how-to-fix-a-canon-50mm-f14-lens-with-a-stuck-focus-ring/"&gt;this nice article&lt;/a&gt; online and a lot of photos through the linked forums.

There will be a discussion with him at 5pm.  It's curated by Julia Myers and I've been hearing really good things from numerous professors about it.  I got to meet him tonight when he and Jen Locke were arranging some works in Ford Gallery.  Pretty cool guy and his work is fantastic.  Also, it's expected there will be a ton of people coming in to see his work, as he's a world renowned artist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Extra: Here's a photo of my cat, trying to sabotage my blog post.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1QESCU1yTCI/SvOF3qMiAyI/AAAAAAAAAgU/njnciUxuadA/s1600-h/Photo+83.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left;

As I was running around the park I began to think about photography and running simultaneously. I have been slacking a wee bit when it comes to my running routine. In the past few weeks I've been making it out three, two, and one week, I only made it out once. This inconsistency has led me to some moments of personal bashing and self-doubt. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;Why have I been letting myself down? I've always been very motivated and running is an important part my life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;My friend shared an experience recently about holding herself accountable. She said she would do her workout at the gym if she had to report back to her physical therapist, but if not, she slacked. I was thinking about this last night while running in relationship to my own slacking. At this present moment, the only one holding me accountable for running is me. Isn't that the person that matters? Why is it that I'll let myself down but  do anything in my power to avoid letting a friend, family member, or in the past, a running coach, down? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;The light was brilliant last night. It illuminated the trees and darkened the shadows in a way that made the forest glow. Since I didn't have my camera, I took in a few deep breaths and tried to soak in the moment. All of my senses were completely satisfied and in that moment I made a promise to myself. I promised to stop making plans for tomorrow and start doing today. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;This has been a not-so-subtle inspirational moment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:13px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7691495095969723500-3889490312489273605?l=purpictures.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://purpictures.blogspot.com/feeds/3889490312489273605/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://purpictures.blogspot.com/2009/10/holding-yourself-accountable.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7691495095969723500/posts/default/3889490312489273605'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7691495095969723500/posts/default/3889490312489273605'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://purpictures.blogspot.com/2009/10/holding-yourself-accountable.html' title='Holding Yourself Accountable'/><author><name>pretty unicorn rainbow pictures</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03437430718026622390</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7691495095969723500.post-2759668997514272592</id><published>2009-10-20T09:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-20T09:28:16.912-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Open Call</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_cQuCFI7lDCY/St3k6ik1C8I/AAAAAAAAABY/9DMjE6aVh_k/s1600-h/ogo_with_shadow_bridge_c.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;
