Digital BW, The Print

Mark,

I'm glad to see all this activity and support... you deserve every bit of it! I'm trying to get my acquaintances to visit your site and join up. I've passed the word on to the photo people at the State Historic Preservation Office here in Montana. We have a sparse population here to be sure but every member counts.

In the "about AIA" section of your site I think you're being way too modest. In one message here you mentioned your impressive work at, what was it, the Smithsonian? The carries a lot of weight and it might help those considering membership to sign up.

I think you're in the habit of doing this already, but would you be able to let this forum know when you start a new "batch"? If that's too much hassle, I can understand - you're got plenty else to do! Perhaps the MMG tab takes care of that.

Regards,

Paul

But when recessions hit, the arts are the first to get clobbered. In my case, print permanence research is getting clobbered as well because society is making a paradigm shift to electronic displays. Traditionally framed prints and photographs are the cornerstone of my research, and in today's marketplace my expertise is less and less needed.  But it's what I love, so I continue to try to find a safe harbor. I hope you will, too.
