AI generated images
Watched a youtube video on how to use Photoshop to generate AI images. Fun. The "puppet theatre" interpretation was to put a large puppet outside the building.

SNOW!
Snowed again today. Not just a few flakes, but it just continued all day and sat on the ground. Weather says it will not melt for 2 days.

Parade plans
Talked to Erik Hood at the Last Mountain Lake cultural center and art gallery at Regina Beach, and we discussed some interesting ideas about the Canada Day parade.

AGR member sale
I didn't buy anything at the AGR member's sale this year, but needed to stop and look at this item. There were a few of these. The glasses arms are ceramic as are the bell shaped objects (but not bells). Wire threads between them but does not actually hold them together. Quite mysterious.

Calmer day
While there was work to do, the day felt much easier now that the big opening for William yesterday is over. I raked the moldy leaves off the lawn. Spent some time at the university but had forgotten my keys, so didn't do any actual work (went to a reception). Couldn't get a covid booster because they changed the rules about reasons for needing one.

William's BFA exhibition
Huge day for William. His exhibition of bird people, made up of enlarged comics, 35mm photographs, and an installation of characters drawn onto foam core posed with "cartoonified" furniture, wall paper, playing cards, and a tv with animation playing on it, opened at the Fifth Parallel Gallery on the UofR campus. The crowd was big with about 100 people there during the artist talk (which William was impressively funny and personal and meaningful) and many other people seeing the show either before or after that. Great success.
