Yessssssss!
As if you needed another reason to get psyched about the 2008 Bejing Olympic Games (I have been inexplicably psyched about this event for MONTHS. I’m not even athletic. But something about this Olympic Games calls to me…maybe it’s because China is

A quick note to all you filmmakers out there!
The Mayor’s Office has finally formalized the film permit regulations for the city of New York.
For those of you keep score, the last time they tried this they ended up with regulations that would require even tourists taking pictures to apply for a permit.
A quick rundown of the new regulations, and an explanation of the top photo, after the jump.

For a mere $75 dollars, I am going to see five brand new, world class productions during the 2008-2009 theater season in New York. I am going to witness first hand the unveiling of set designs from some of Broadway’s top artists; I am going to revel in the magic of watching some of the greatest performers on the planet bring down the house; I am going to see classical masterpieces and modern game changers.
And where am I going to be able to do all of this for a mere $75?

At the Metropolitan Opera.
Now before you roll your eyes and page down, I ask you to join me after the jump, where I will prove, unequivably, that opera is truly the art form of the masses.

Hello All! It’s spring concert time!
I’ll be joining the musical stylings of the Hunter College Community Choir on Monday, May 12 for their presentation of Hayden’s Missa in tempore belli (Mass in Time of War), and Mozart’s Ave Verum Corpus (which is just the loveliest little piece you’ve ever heard). It should be a hopping good time, in a classical music kind of way.
Why is Napolen looming over Hayden?? Learn, AFTER THE JUMP!

I stumbled across this article yesterday, in the New York (Freaking) Times no less, which tackles the question of whether the slip up by the ever befuddled Paula Abdul on a recent broadcast of the massively popular American Idol has damaged the program’s credibility. In case you’ve remained blissfully unaware of the hoopla, here’s what transpired:

The Whitney Biennial 2008 Whitney Museum of American Art March 6- June 1

“Today there are more artists working in more genres, using more varieties of material, and moving among more geographic locations than ever before. “
-Whitney Biennial Website
That pretty much sums up this year’s Biennial. It’s like the flea market of contemporary art.

Guys and Ladies! Today is a Super Tuesday! Not only was Jamba Juice giving away free breakfast (mmmmm…mango peach topper….) but my all time favorite living writer has a new book out TODAY! Feast your eyes:

I haven’t read it yet, because I don’t own it yet, but I can tell you that this is a companion piece to Pullman’s wonderful His Dark Materials series. I suppose you could describe it as something of a spin-off; it fills in the back story of two of the characters?from the original trilogy (for those “in the know” that would be Lee Scorsby and Iorek Byrnison). Pullman did something similar with his Sally Lockhart trilogy. It allows him to revisit and flesh out?a world without compromising the arc that he has already written. And His Dark Materials introduced a world so rich and varied that it is quite a thrill to anticipate learning more about it. Seriously, ya’ll, these books are so good! Go read them!
*Update: But wait! There’s more!?

I love street art!!
Why do I love street art? Well, for one, I can afford it. Also, it tends to be a little funkier, a little more off the beaten path. But besides that, I love wandering down the street and having something catch my eye, and being able to immediately engage the artist in a discussion. I love to know about the process of creation, what the piece means to the artist. I particularly like to know if my impressions of the piece match up with the intentions of the artist. The entire concept of meaning, its creation and dissemination, is fascinating to me. And being able to talk to artists allows me to assuage some of my burning curiosity.
