Net(not)working

“You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” — Ansel Adams

Networks: My dear friend, David White, currently finds himself studying and testing networking concepts. He invited me to an event hosted by Katie Felten of MKE Live, a local chapter of LinkIn; a networking site for professionals. My interest, as always, revolved around “what does professional networking look and sound like? And, do attendees need and recognize the value of high quality photography, video, and graphic design services for themselves and their businesses?” To see more photographs from the event – look here.

Content is the name of my game. Images, words and videos which make the web, print and our walls come alive with interesting and useful information.

Portraits – self and others – call me

too long since pencil
marked its trail over paper
so here’s to life’s trail

Self Portrait

I’d rather draw you. Call me: 262-241-9375.

Along the way. The photographer said, “they’re real.” Many viewers said, “don’t believe your pictures.” How, or why, did the images appear so as folks could not accept them as factual? Or, did she document a fiction? Few could tell. Really. Do you believe this? ’tis true.

Not for Profit

Some of my efforts go to “not for profit” groups. I’ve developed logos and am currently developing a web site for T:AP (Transcend: Art and Peace). A fellow T:AP member just sent this wonderful link, where we find César López building guitars out of AK-47 assault rifles. Imagine all the weapons in the world converted to musical instruments for 2008. Was a bomb. Now a drum. Happy dancing, peaceful New Year!

Don’t forget Seth Tyler’s sculptural use of hand guns (also my photography and web site design). Let’s ship Seth all those tanks and armored vehicles and see what he can do with them.

Another link, Still Point Zen Center, also shows some logo development as well as a newsletter design. And while we’re on this non-profit subject some of my logo and web work can also be found at Center for Community Stewardship and minimal efforts at The Starfish Foundation. Each of these organizations deserves whatever support we can offer.

Dan Nauman’s Iron and Kevin Meyers’ inspiration

Printing photographs of iron work by Dan Nauman bighornforge.com today. I’ve photographed Dan’s beautiful work for a number of years now, along with developing and hosting his web site. He’ll submit these prints to the National Ornamental and Miscellaneous Metals Association http://www.nomma.org/; for consideration in their Top Job competition.

Simultaneously, I’m creating a dvd for Kevin Meyers, a motivational speaker http://www.mytruevision.net. Some years ago I developed Kevin’s logo, letterhead and business card.
