We need to balance out the effort, so that while people volunteer to work the event, they also can find time to shop with the vendors, and view all the lovely models on display. This means limiting folks to working less than half the show time, so that they can spend the other half, well, NOT working. Otherwise next year, having been overburdened, folks will baulk at the idea of putting on a show. Seattle Chapter News So if you want this Show to continue, if you want to have fun helping people out, while at the same time enjoying a great day at the region’s largest scale model contest and show, please sign up for a task slot or two at one of these areas: Registration or Raffle (both provide a seat In This Issue to sit on), Hosting, or Judging.

Drawings 79 2. Objects 85 3. Buildings 91 Introduction: The Nature of the Real Rhett Russo The challenges associated with depicting the real have played an important role in cinema, literature, art, sculpture, and philosophy, but have yet to be fully exploited by architecture. Nonetheless architecture shares many of the same ontological predicaments with these other arts—the introduction of iron, the invention of photography, and the Industrial Revolution are a few examples of crucial developments, which have significantly challenged classicist doctrine. The realist painting of the 1850s, in particular works by Gustave Courbet, confront the viewer with the realities of labor in a new way. With Courbet, reality is presented through the tensed body of the kneeling peasant in Sifting Wheat (1854) or the brokenhearted embodiment of the Wounded Man (1854). Similarly, the emaciated travelers depicted in the Raft of the Medusa (1818–19) emerged from Gericault’s careful practice of painting dead corpses—and seizing the opportunity to speculate on the aesthetics of historical events. These unusual practices formed the core in the developing aesthetic category of the “real.” As Michael Fried has remarked, the content of realist painting presents a particular challenge for historians, due in part to the shift in emphasis toward depicting the “everyday,” but also Rhett Russo Rhett Russo because its resultant strangeness dislodged it from the framework at the moment of its crew’s rescue.

  • ABSTRACT in Paradise: a Feature Film Philip Heinrich, 0.A. Advisor
    ABSTRACT In Paradise: A Feature Film Philip Heinrich, M.A. Advisor: Christopher J. Hansen, M.F.A. In Paradise is a feature length live action narrative film that I wrote, directed and produced as my masters thesis. I worked on the film in cooperation with Baylor masters candidates Aaron Youngblood and Maverick Moore. The film tells the story of Leon Vincent, a high school science teacher whose fascination with quantum mechanics drives him into a destructive obsession. This written component of the thesis is an overview of the planning, production, and post-production of the film from a directorial standpoint. It explores the key stages of making this film in order to provide a look at the process of independent feature filmmaking.
