Daniel and I are currently in Spain, traveling to Madrid, Navalcarnero and Seville, shooting video, conducting interviews and making preparations for a trip during Holy Week to document at least one procession in conjunction with an upcoming, IMA organized exhibition called, Sacred Spain: Art and Belief in the Spanish World.
An amazing product has emerged from Microsoft’s Live Labs. Photosynth allows anyone to create an immersible and interactive experience given just a set of digital photographs of an area. I’ll just warn up front that this is a Windows only product at this point, but its novelty more than justifies the download and installation.

I work on the “service level” of the IMA, which is really another not-so-pleasant-way of saying the basement. But this is fine with me because that’s where the majority of the IMA’s art lives (just about everything that is not currently on view is down here except the works of art on paper, which are stored on the ground level). While I wouldn’t call the service level
