Press Release – Blog88.org October Issue

by SK-B | Media

I apologize to everyone who woke early on the 1st to check your screen, disappointed that the Blog88.org October Issue was not up. Well, it is still October, and here it is!

Articles by Phoebe Sparrow Wagner in each of the first two issues was a hard act to follow. Phoebe had set a world-class standard. Following an Olympic Gold Medalist long distance runner, we will be happy to amble in her footsteps, enjoying the stroll. I think we ended up with a very nice issue. There is a lovely piece by amazing Justin Cabral. In a uniquely unencumbered style, with 83 exuberant words, Cabral extols an array of 40 things which bring him joy. The October Issue also features an Ask The Broker column, titled, “Black Swans.” And there is more.

Crowdsourced Cinema VT’s Production of Jurassic Park

by cgrotke | Media
musearts team scene 6

I thought I’d share the scene we did for Crowdsourced Cinema VT’s production of Jurassic Park, now viewable on BCTV and other streaming places.

35 teams of Vermonters participated, and were each assigned scenes from the film randomly. Ours was the scene where they first arrive on the island and see their first dinosaurs. As you might expect, I chose to do animation. (Others used live action, puppets, animals…)

Build a Gift Box

by HatchSpace | Creative

Come to HatchSpace’s new woodworking shop, get some tablesaw practice and leave with an elegant little box! In this workshop we will use the tablesaw to cut dados, rabbets, and some raised panels, and the router table for a little bit of detailing. You’ll learn how to accurately fit small pieces together, and work with some lovely local hardwoods to make a simple box for keepsakes, tea, tiny spice jars, or even recipe cards! Whether you’re brand new to the woodshop, or have experience and want some practice on the tablesaw, this workshop will guide you safely through some simple techniques for working with small parts accurately.    No woodworking experience required.
