Shawn,
I’ve spent some time combing through your blog, really wonderful information here, blogging it has a way of solidifying ideas and uncovering new paths that I find particularly rewarding. Thanks for your follow-up comment on my blog regarding Greenberg, this is precisely the type of cross pollination I crave. It sent me running to my art history books, thinking immediately of Malevich…white on white, how much more reductive can you get?
Keep up the good work, I’ll be watching.

Hey Eric,
Welcome to the party and thanks for the compliment. Your Malevich comment is spot on…and the blinds are pretty close to that white-on-white idea. Looks like you’re a painter-in-disguise!
I added your site to my blogroll. I’m sure folks will enjoy seeing a project that’s quite a bit further along. Kudos to you!
Shawn
