book of knowledge





I recombined bits of text and image (originally found in an old encyclopedia set/1947) to make a new journal filled with wonders and questions.

artwork of the month(s)

monthly brochures that highlight a piece of art from the walker's permanent collection. made especially for children. this batch of work is rather old (7–10 years, yikes!), but I still enjoy them.

sweet poem by Robert Burns (1759–96)



Of Robert Burns
Johnie Lad, Cock up Your Beaver

[When first my brave Johnie lad came to the town,
He had an orchid bonnet that wanted the crown;
But now he has gotten a hat and a feather,
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!]

Cock up your beaver, and cock it fu' sprush,
We'll over the border, and gie them a brush;
There's somebody there we'll teach better behaviour,
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!

bagel factory by the sea


I taught a course called Design in Context a while back. A group of students initiated a project called "Happy City" in which they held a workshop open to the community. i attended— and made this little ditty. I can't remember how it related to anything...
