Intersecting Lines

Wires play cat's cradle overhead. I imagine the voices travelling along competing with the electrical current. So much is buried underground in big cities, we no longer see the electronic highways spanning the world.

One thing I like about following people on Flickr is you see a wide variety of subjects for photography. One of my contacts, mikecogh from Adelaide, often posts industrial photographs - photos of those places that are not particularly beautiful.

I was at an art gallery in an industrial part of the city. On exiting I noticed these lines and shadows and thought it might make an interesting photo. When I turned and looked back at the stairs I was on, I shot this.



Getting into the rhythm of seeing the interesting in the ordinary. So these photos are dedicated to Mike.

Day 40: Sharing the Power

Day 40: Sharing the Power, originally uploaded by susanvg.

Wires – plugged in. Today was a day of presenting a workshop. We power-shared – sharing the power of online collaboration- whether for students or teachers. A network of computers – a network of teachers. And we looked at networks and who fed into us and whom we nurtured. Here we have the real plugs and wires - sometimes face to face makes for better virtual relationships later.

Wired, wireless, -relationships made can be strengthened online so when next we meet it will be not only as colleagues but as friends.
