African Digerati: Ethan Zuckerman
| |
| Ethan Zuckerman is the 5th in the African Digerati series of interviews. Honestly, I’m amazed with what Ethan has done with technology and what he continues to do - so much of which directly benefits Africans. His line-up of web projects is simply amazing. What isn’t mentioned here is that he founded Geekcorps, a non-profit technology volunteer corps, that creates real tangible technology change on the African continent. He’s also on my “required reading” list of African bloggers.

Having a Conversation with An Artist Painting Out of Doors
| |
| Especially in Summer, you are likely to encounter artists outside with all of their equipment painting happily. You will see them in the cities, in the country, in rural areas, in museums sometimes, by oceans, by lakes, by farms. Speak with them if you feel so moved. One of the most exciting things for an artist is to sell a painting right on site that is not yet dry if it is oil and perfectly dry if it is an acrylic or watercolor. If an artist is shy or would rather not speak, you will surely know it. Still, most artists enjoy conversing with art lovers and others. |

The Global Significance of Art
| |
| As an artist, I believe that art lives. There is the spirit of the artist in each original piece of art. Of this I am sure. Does the spirit move also into each reproduction? This I am not so sure of. What I do know is that a piece of art can stop one cold in his or her tracks or a group of people cold in their tracks. You can see this yourself whenever you go to a major museum where they have the masters in their collections. And, of course, contemporary artists can also stop people in their tracks. Art is powerful. I love being an artist. I love that what Kant said about come comparing artists to God. Of course, it all comes from God. Where art is concerned, globally, it is a small world indeed. |
