I took some shots for you to see.<br />
<br />
NYC-Arts is responsible for publishing all of the cultural and art information for NYC. The guide is about 125 pages long, and includes hundreds of NYC museums and organizations for seniors, including the Guggenheim, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and MOMA. The guide lists senior discounts as well as information about disability access. The guide is meant to work in both printable and PDF formats.<br />
<br />
I made sure the PDF version of the guide has hyperlinks all throughout so that you can easily click to the organization's websites. The index and contents are also interactive, so you can quickly navigate through the PDF.<br />
<br />
This guide will be widely available on the <a href="http://NYC-ARTS.org/">NYC-ARTS.org</a> website, and will be sent to over 5,000 arts funders, cultural leaders, policymakers, bloggers, and other media.<br />
<br />
Take a look!<br />

<br />
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:<br />
April 28, 2010<br />
<br />
CONTACT: Jessie Rossman, ACLU of Michigan staff attorney at 313.578.6823<br />
<br />
ANN ARBOR, MICH. – The American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan is gravely concerned by plans to evict about 20 residents of the local homeless encampment Camp Take Notice from public land near Interstate I-94 and Ann Arbor-Saline Road. The Michigan State Police posted signs in the encampment yesterday warning residents that they must leave or risk being arrested for trespassing.<br />
<br />
“It’s no coincidence that police are threatening to arrest homeless people who have nowhere else to go ahead of President Obama’s visit to the University of Michigan,” said Jessie Rossman, ACLU of Michigan Staff Attorney. “Rather than sweeping the ugly problem of homelessness under the rug, federal, state and local governments should work toward<br />
commonsense solutions to the problems facing Michigan’s poorest.”<br />
<br />
Yesterday afternoon, the Michigan State Police posted “No Trespassing” notices throughout the camp. According to the notice, the Michigan Department of Transportation, which owns the property, asked law enforcement officials to enforce the trespassing laws. In addition, the notice states that “continuing to occupy this area without lawful authority or permission is a crime, and may result in your arrest and prosecution.” The notice instructs homeless individuals to remove their property immediately.<br />
<br />
Camp Take Notice is one of at least three tent communities in and around Ann Arbor. It was established to provide a safe, sober and drug-free environment with food and shelter for individuals and has strict rules prohibiting panhandling in the vicinity of the campsite.<br />
<br />
“It is not a crime to be homeless in Michigan,” said Rossman. “There is perhaps no punishment more cruel than arresting individuals for something that is out of their control. As long as the economic crisis and resource shortages persist, there will continue to be people who have no choice but to live on the streets throughout Michigan.”<br />
<br />
In December, the ACLU of Michigan filed a friend-of-the-court brief on behalf Caleb Poirier, a member of Camp Take Notice who was arrested for trespassing after admitting to police that he lived in the camp. Charges against Caleb were later dismissed. In its brief, the ACLU of Michigan explained that when a city does not provide sufficient shelter to house the homeless, it cannot then punish the homeless for not having anywhere else to go. According to homeless advocates in Washtenaw County, between 2007 and 2008, there was a 30 percent increase in homelessness amongst families and individuals.<br />
<br />
In addition, the ACLU warned that punishing harmless life-sustaining conduct, such as sleeping in public, constitutes cruel and unusual punishment under the U.S. and Michigan Constitutions.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><br />

Sturtivandt of the Michigan State Police.

They've threaten to confiscate all property and arrest any trespassers.</blockquote></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><blockquote style="text-align: left;" type="cite">You know the issue, you know the need.

The camp has consistently fulfilled a need for housing and community since its inception.</blockquote></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><blockquote style="text-align: left;" type="cite">Unfortunately, just as Washtenaw and Ann Arbor are making difficult cuts, another challenge has been placed in front of the camp citizens--- individuals who already vulnerable and fighting to start again.</blockquote></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><blockquote style="text-align: left;" type="cite">As MISSION continues its search for more stable footing for camp, hope that our community can keep working together so that someday a Camp Take Notice won't be necessary.</blockquote></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><blockquote style="text-align: left;" type="cite">Until that time, please keep your eyes open for more updates and the news of camp's eviction and exodus: many of the campers have agreed to move to a new spot, but we are not sure where.

There was a great turnout and all of the work looked great. Joseph Gill came for two hours and loved the final result. Here are images of my gallery space in Work: Ann Arbor. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I was unsure if people would listen to the sound piece on opening night- but to my surprise, many people listened! It was great to have the two headphones and a splitter so that people could listen at the same time and talk about it afterwards.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

The iPod will include the "Doorknobs" sound piece, as well as the two voicemails Joe left me, on February 17 and February 20, in the midst of winter:<br />

The goal was to sound more natural and less stiff than the previous recorded introduction.<br />
<br />
I am going to have a slide that says "Doorknobs", followed by a slide that says "an audio story from a homeless tent community on the edge of Ann Arbor."<br />
<br />
Any last comments/suggestions before I burn to a DVD for Monday?<br />
<br />

I think this is a nice number as it gives you a good sense of the tent community.<br />
<br />
I think a title panel is necessary in the grid. If I was walking past this, I would be a little confused and assume this was a piece on camping. Tonight I am going to work on the title panel. It needs to blend into the grid, but I think a pop of color is good.<br />
<br />
Adrianne and I spent some time today talking about which images work best for the gallery & the whole homeless experience. I have edited it down to these.<br />
<br />

"Walking home from Whole Foods- I live just past the horizon": the establishing image; sets the tone, mood, and gives the tent community context.<br />
<br />
"My stately home and storage tent": Shows the tents and his ironic captions off the bat.<br />
<br />
"Inside my tent looking out": The most important photo, and my favorite. Love the caption, too.<br />
<br />
"Organization is Key": Gives you an insider's perspective of the inside of his tent, details in this photo important<br />
<br />
"The Essentials": Another insider's peek into the communal tent kitchen.<br />
<br />
"Yes, I have to wash all these, but not in the fire pit." Great perspective, not an image we see often.<br />
<br />
"Snow Crushed the Tent": Highlights the drama, struggle, and it's a strong image.<br />
<br />
"My new place- had to downsize": Shows his sarcasm and most importantly, his determination to move on.<br />
<br />
<br />
All photographs will be printed on matte paper, 22x17, and hung with thin silver pins. <br />

I created sentence breaks for all the quotes, figured out the sequence of images, and resolved all of the spreads. I edited all the images and resized the captions, which took the most time. I wanted to be sure the images were crisp with high contrast, yet not overexposed. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My book is 99% complete. I am currently working on finessing the intro/conclusion of the book. Today in critique we went over specific details I need to change; I am going to make those changes tonight because tomorrow I am meeting with Hannah to go over the book one last time. I am sending off the book to the printer on Tuesday.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here are two spreads I resolved this week- they are the only spreads without an image (besides intro/conclusion). </span><br />

</span></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also went to Groundworks this week and they helped me upload Joe’s voicemails onto the computer. In the messages he talks about how the Michigan Department of Transportation is forcing Camp Take Notice to leave in 30 days. This will be one of the sound clips in the gallery. He left me two voicemails- so I need to decide if I want to keep both in raw form- or combine the message to be one direct voicemail, combining the most important spoken elements.</span></div><br />

It is during an interview with Joe when I asked him if he wanted to participate in my project and take pictures. He was so excited and I thought it would be interesting to show a behind-the-scenes of our dialogue and see his reaction when I asked him to collaborate on the project. Everyone really enjoyed the sound piece, but after a few minutes of discussion, we realized this might in fact take away from the gallery space. This piece is almost too laid back and doesn’t fit as well as the other sound pieces.</span></div></div><br />

He basically says to pursue what you love and don't doubt your abilities because ultimately in any job there will always be someone better than you. I think it’s great advice. </span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My meeting on Tuesday with Hannah went well; we talked about how I can improve the textual/compositional elements of my book by giving stronger emphasis to some images over others.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> We also talked about using sentence breaks for the quotes.</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We talked about the covers and felt that using the whole image on the cover is the most successful, as it sets the overall tone for the book. </span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I made a second iteration of the book for today's class. There are several pages so I will post a few spreads throughout this week. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Critique was helpful, and everyone provided helpful feedback about type, placement, imagery, etc. I asked my group about the book titles. I am set on the subtitle: One man's journey through homelessness. But I am not so sure about the main title. It is either "With a camera, without a home" or "Inside my tent looking out." The first option is my voice, the second option comes from a caption Jay wrote for one of his photos. We also talked about using his handwriting for the title, since it is his voice. A few people liked the first title better, as it is most direct. I am torn.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here are a few layouts of the covers.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For my "Home" studio class, instead of working on a final project, Adrianne is allowing us to work on our IP during the rest of the semester. I am very appreciative of this. She is also going to work with me on the introduction/conclusion of the book. We had a meeting on Wednesday and she pointed out that my introduction is somewhat lacking. I haven't worked much on the intro. as I have been so focused on the imagery/text; this week I will really work on those elements of the book.</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I am really happy that I am making the book as it allows me to tell the story to the world, as well as document this project for myself.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week was exciting- it was so cool to see my article on AnnArbor.com. I also learned that the volunteers presented my article to a town board meeting a few days ago. They said it was very effective and it resulted in great conversation at the meeting. </span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Joe gave me a call on Monday and I was really nervous as to how he would respond to the article- but he loved it. He said he was almost crying while reading. He thanked me for writing in a respectful way. I told him about the book I was making and he was thrilled. I told him I would of course give him a copy.</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My goal is to finish this book by Monday, March 29. That way I can send it out and get it printed in time for the show. That means I need to be super productive. I need to work on editing the images; I have 10 out of 25 done as of now. </span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also need to figure out which sound clips I want to present in the gallery. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yes this is a very overwhelming time but it's also exciting! I need to work work work and enjoy it!</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
