Spin & Marty

SpinMartyMary Tiegreen sent me some rocks from Arizona. I used them to create Spin & Marty. Spin & Marty are now living with Mary Tiegreen and Hubert Pedroli in Arizona.

Christmas fling

Janice and I are big on Christmas lights. We hang them in the front yard, the back yard, and all over the inside of the house. The front yard display shown above (click photo for larger picture) was new this year. More than 1000 C-5 LED lights--10 continuous strands more than 340 feet in total length. Hung and flung over the limbs of three different trees using a variety of techniques--e.g., standing on a ladder, throwing a tennis shoe (tied to a rope tied to the next strand) over limbs then pulling the strand up and over, and using a long aluminum extension pole with a hook on the end.

This year I decided to create and host my own "virtual" office Christmas party. Here's the email "invitation" I sent out: We've just moved into our new world headquarters, and we're throwing our biggest office Christmas party ever. You're invited! Please come by any time between now and Christmas Day: http://allenbukoff.com/info . Merry Christmas! Allen Bukoff. When they clicked on the link they arrived at the web page shown below:

This audio file I created was broadcast by Aaron Anderson from a pirate radio station at the Detroit Museum of Contemporary Art on December 5, 2008.
