			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Following up on our recent blog posts with lists of top-10’s, summer movies, crushes and hotels, I thought I would follow suit.  So let’s do this thing -</p>
<p>The good news is that the list of IMA bloggers will be expanding in the next couple of weeks.  That means you won’t have to rely on my posts for your exciting look into the world of an art museum.  Soon you’ll hear from a variety of perspectives, including conservation, curatorial, education and horticulture.  I’ll still talk about technology, new media, art content and soccer, but I’m afraid you may have to wait a little longer.  My apologies in advance.</p>
<p>Speaking of new bloggers, we are also working on the concept of Guest Bloggers.  Yes, we are talking about people like Jay Z, <a href="http://www.banksy.co.uk" target="_blank">Banksy</a>, Jessica Alba, Jared the Subway Guy and other big names.  I doubt we’ll get any of these celebs, but we are thinking creatively about who could be a guest blogger.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.imamuseum.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/bansky.jpg" title="Banksy (banksy.co.uk)"><img src="http://www.imamuseum.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/bansky.jpg" alt="Banksy (banksy.co.uk)" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-91"></span>The fact is, it could be you, it could be an artist, actor, musician, race car driver, skydiver, chef and so on.  Everyone is connected to art in some way, and blogging with the IMA would allow others to communicate that.</p>
<p>So really think about this concept.  Would you blog for the IMA?  If so, let us know.  Who should blog for the IMA?  We would love to hear your suggestions.</p>
<p>I’ve thought a lot about this.  Someone like Jay Z would be an incredible addition to the list of IMA bloggers – but I’m not sure how likely that is.  I mulled and mulled and random people started popping into my head.  I’ve listed a few of them below, and in each case I tried to pick people with good web resources, so you could also learn about them.  Drum roll please…</p>
<p><a href="http://www.volzy.com" target="_blank">Volzy</a>:  He’s German, plays professional soccer in London, rides around on a fold up bike, LOVES David Hasselhoff and provides a listing of German phrases everyone should know, such as &#8211; Wo kann ich mir meine VokuHila Frisur blondieren lassen? (Where can I get my mullet highlighted?), as well as important facts, such as<span class="style61"> &#8211; <span class="style101"><em>in no other country will more X-rays be done than in Germany.  I would love to hear who is his favorite artist is.</em></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><em><a href="http://www.imamuseum.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/moritz-voltz-6.jpg" title="Maruice Volz as the Hoff (courtesy of volzy.com)"><img src="http://www.imamuseum.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/moritz-voltz-6.jpg" alt="Maruice Volz as the Hoff (courtesy of volzy.com)" /></a></em></p>
<p><span class="style101"><span style="font-size: 11pt"><em> </em></span></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.coupland.com/" target="_blank"><st1:place w:st="on">Douglas</st1:place></a><a href="http://www.coupland.com/" target="_blank"> Coupland</a>:  Artist, author, <a href="http://coupland.blogs.nytimes.com/" target="_blank">blogger</a>, Canadian, producer and more.  <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Microserfs-Douglas-Coupland/dp/0060987049/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1203432996&amp;sr=8-1" target="_blank">Microserfs</a> remains one of my all-time favorite books, and it’s been fascinating to watch Coupland evolve as an artist since his 90’s release of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_x" target="_blank">Generation X</a>.  His analysis of pop culture is astounding, so who wouldn’t want to hear his opinions on art, art museums, and artists?  I would.  He also loves Lego.  And so do I.</p>
<p align="left"><em><a href="http://www.imamuseum.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/bookcover.jpg" title="Ask a Pilot"><img src="http://www.imamuseum.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/bookcover.thumbnail.jpg" alt="Ask a Pilot" class="imageLeft" align="left" border="2" hspace="2" /></a></em><a href="http://www.salon.com/tech/col/smith/2008/02/08/askthepilot263/index.html?source=rss&amp;aim=/tech/col/smith" target="_blank">Patrick Smith</a>:  pilot, author and contributor to salon.com.  I love planes, airports and flying.  His book, Ask the Pilot is packed with interesting facts, humor and opinions on airline liveries and logos.  He’s traveled all over the world – he must have visited some museums, right?  Although, he recently visited 15 countries in 21 days, traveling 45,000 miles without stepping foot outside.  Well, he might be able to tell us how to get that ‘free’ first class upgrade.  Who’s going to argue with that?</p>

<p><em><a href="http://www.imamuseum.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/jillian.jpg" title="Jillian Lewis’ Web site"><img src="http://www.imamuseum.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/jillian.jpg" alt="Jillian Lewis’ Web site" class="imageRight" align="right" height="129" width="175" /></a></em><a href="http://www.jillianlewisny.com/" title="Jillian Lewis" target="_blank">Jillian Lewis</a>:  Alright, I’m busted.  I watch Project Runway and I’m rooting for Jillian.  She’s talented, stylish, articulate, to-the-point and not afraid to express her opinion.  Sounds like a blogger to me, but can she take Bryant Park? My thoughts might also be influenced by an upcoming fashion exhibition, <a href="http://www.imamuseum.org/exhibitions/breakingthemode/" title="Breaking the Mode" target="_blank">Breaking the Mode</a>, and the site that just launched.  And hey, it wouldn’t be an IMA blog post without a Facebook reference – so join the Jillian Fan Club <a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=14584900121&amp;ref=mf" title="Jillian Lewis Facebook Fan Club" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>I could keep going here, but as I have in the past, I’m going to the leave door wide open for you to comment…</p>
