Visiting the Art Institute in Chicago

Cassie and I visited the Art Institute to see a lecture in a series called “From Trash to Spectacle”.
The speakers were Kathryn Hixson and Shannon Stratton.  The blog about this series is here.  My wife’s blog is here.

Cassie is very involved with the DIY and craft movement in art, so this was very fitting for what she is involved in.  We also had a great dinner at an Irish restaurant in the North Loop.  This weekend, I’ll be preparing for the composer’s concert that is coming up on Monday already!  It’s going to be my first live piece to utilize Max/MSP, so I’m going to be spending a lot of time practicing this weekend.
