Oggsford Graduation, Part 1

The Bodleian.

Melody and I went to Oxford last weekend to receive degrees that we completed almost ten years ago, and to eat some Ben's cookies from the Covered Market.

Holzer Halloween

The Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art had an opening and book signing for Jenny Holzer's exhibit Protect Protect on Halloween. We got a catalog signed, saw some decent costumes, shared a table with a U of C grad student in English working on an 18th century travelogue, and watched the projection on the outside of the building. The SLR-carrying droog in the third shot took our picture without permission inside the gallery, so I retaliated out on the steps.
