Moore Square history project

I got to spend some time Thursday with that great art lady, Lee Moore, as she worked with students at the Moore Square Museum Magnet middle school. The students learn about the history of the area around their downtown school and then create art and documentation, which is displayed in local storefronts. This day they were preparing collage images for tiles, some of which will be used in an outdoor installation. I will be folllowing this admirable project ( http://www.cam.ncsu.edu/programs-educational-moore.html ) and hopefully posting at RDUwtf about Lee and her myriad inputs into Raleigh culture.

George Eliot’s Middlemarch

If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which lies on the other side of silence.

Howard Thurman

Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

Carl Sagan (1934 – 1996)

All of the books in the world contain no more information than is broadcast as video in a single large American city in a single year. Not all bits have equal value.

Fascism should be more properly called corporatism, since it is the merger of state and corporate power.
