A Street Photography community
The day I started these new feeds, I came upon a video in Fstoppers by Peter Forsgård, a photographer from Helsinki, Finland, discussing what street photographers could learn from the musician Brian Eno. I watched it twice, the second time taking … Continue reading
Our news feeds
We’ve added some arts-focused news feeds here, and taken down the ones for “Artificial Intelligence” and “Social Media Policy,” topics that are painfully ubiquitous practically everywhere else. Our “Graphic Novels” news feed is filled with tributes to Marjane Satrapi, creator … Continue reading

“Whatever you think you can write.”
So says the wonderful Bryan Garner in today’s LawProse Lesson. Anything that can be thought can be written. That dictum is both challenge and liberation for the legal writer. If a concept can take shape in your mind—even faintly, even clumsily—it can be … Continue reading
Communications Strategy
I’ve been given a communications strategy “capstone” class for the upcoming term. My students and I will be scanning for examples from around the world starting day one. Expect more frequent posting from me going ahead!
