Dear All, The recent discussion on authentic space may be apropos of the image I've just uploaded to the discussion list gallery.
http://www.???????/discussion/upload/gallery2002.php ?pic=tmiller_wellstonehq.jpg It is an image made this past Monday at the impromptu memorial outside the late Senator Paul Wellstone's campaign headquarters in St. Paul, Minnesota. Much of the discussion defining authentic space seemed to include patina as an essential ingredient. This image is of a space three days old. It will return to brick building, sidewalk and chain link fence soon, certainly by the next rain or snow. Judging by what I experienced there, the space was genuine, yet spontaneous, transitory and connected to the past only through the accumulated experiences of those participating. Tom
