BIO
Eric Dymond is an artist who works with many tools and programming languages.
He graduated from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design with a BFA in studio.<br />
He exhibited paintings in Toronto, Detroit, New York, Montreal and London during the 1970's, 1980's and 1990's. The paintings were created with sandblasted sprays employing formal themes from the history of painting (still life's , individual portraits, traditional landscapes) . These series appear minimal with repeating content and are a form of Serialism.
In the early 1990's he began working with digital media, building perl programs with TCL/TK, web sites (see the doorway on Leonardo) and stand-alone applications.
He continues working in all media, rejecting specialization.

Bechtel And Halliburton


In an attempt to avoid prosecution for conspiraning against the Welfare of the United States of America, the HR departments of Bechtel and Haliburton are on a hiring frenzy. An internal memo from both companies was circulted earlier this month.
Liberally minded democrats, preferably artists, are encouraged to send their resumes to
Bechtel

and Haliburton:

those are the folks that have your money.
You thought it had evaporated, but no, you just need better placement.


DISCUSSION

Duchamp muckdog


It's a little known fact, but in 1942 Marcel Duchamp took up the position of equipment manager for the Batavia Muckdogs. http://www.muckdogs.com/index.asp?sId=35BE5645-6103-4F37-8CD9-414BB0B10987.
This odd relationship lasted less than 2 months.
During Duchamps tenure the Muckdogs wore sequined polo shirts with electronically enhanced logos.
The logos spun feverishly every time a hitter managed to make it to first base and beyond.
As well the Muckdogs would recite poems by Appolinaire overtime a run scored.
Duchamps tenure ended following an unfortunate incident experienced by the Mayor of Batavia, Marshall Downs.
Downs was staring at the dugout during a late inning rally on a fall day of that fateful year and fell into a hypnotic trance.
While in this trance the mayor ran onto the field and stripped himself of his clothing and began running in spirals across the infield.
The local police force recognizing the mayor let the antics continue for over three hours, making it the longest fan delayed playoff game on record in the history of baseball.
Duchamp left town the next day and never returned to Batavia.
Interestingly he never built another rotoscope and returned to traditional forms of creation
