The history of technology and technology throughout history; human innovation from the first stone tool to the iPhone and beyond.
Vija Celmins
For Latvian-American artist Vija Celmins, the objective of workmanship was never self-articulation yet rather the surfaces and actual characteristics that can draw the watcher's eye. "I attempt to utilize a picture since it pulls in you to the composition… however the work of art isn't a window. The work of art has its own world," Celmins told the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 2018. "At times… the lone part that I think is about any worth is simply the making."

Not too long ago I realized that of all my children, only my two oldest had memories of the bad old “dial-up” days. They were born in the mid to late 90s. Technology wise, most internet users subscribed to dial-up plans offered by the local telcos as well as local Internet Service Providers. In my town, we had two or three ISPs run out of basements. In those days, cellphones were just beginning to catch-on. But still, most cellphone users were businesspeople. 3G cell protocol was launched in Japan during that period. Windows 98, and Windows NT reigned supreme on most desktops; Novel version 3.2 and Digital Electronics DEC systems still ran most business networks. Lotus Notes was still the preference for business email systems. For consumers, AOL, Yahoo, and Excite dominated the Internet, and Ask Jeeves was the favorite search engine for most people looking for answers to problems.

When I first knew my grandmother, she was a powerhouse of a woman in both size and mind. At 5-foot-6 and taller when she was fuming about something, she was as wide as one of our Jersey cows before milking. But was she ever fast. Once, with shotgun in hand, she stared down a rabbit in her garden on our rocky Tennessee farm and grabbed it with the other hand. After giving it one of her forceful admonitions, she let it leave, alive, though it was never seen again.
