Cameraless Photographs of Margaret Stanton Murray.

Margaret tells: "My roots are, for the most part, grounded in making art and teaching. After obtaining an MA in painting in the 60’s, I taught art at a variety of places including San Jose State University, Los Gatos High School, Gavilan College and Cabrillo College. Later, my interests lead me to pursue an MFA in photography, earning it from San Jose State University in 1994. Since then, I have taught Photography at San Jose State University, Gunderson High School and most recently at Cabrillo College. I share a studio with my husband Holt Murray who is a sculptor, in Corralitos, California".

The photographs in this portfolio share a formal elegance and mysterious quality of light. Flowers and plants, grouped and collaged, show the contrast of the freshness of youth to the end cycle of life. There is beauty in the linear grace of the dried forms as well as in the soft, fragile succulence of the freshly flowering forms.

These photographic images were produced without a camera. The subjects were scanned, digitally refined, then printed on an archival ultrachrome printer.

There is a healing power in the earth and a strong sense of rootedness and belonging that comes with such practices of kinship. In the West, indigenous reverence for nature has often been derided as “animism” but, as Forbes observes, the spirit of animism would perhaps more properly be represented by the term life-ism. Indigneous peoples across the hemisphere and globe share a deep and profound respect and attachment to the life-sustaining and -enriching properties of nature and in particular the four elements of earth, wind, water, and fire. Life is something to be revered and celebrated at all times. “Life is water,” as elders and young activists steadily remind us. In his differentiation between the egocentric wétiko and the interconnecting ethos of k’é, Jack Forbes provides an invigorating representation of indigenous thought that I highly recommend to any and all colleagues wishing to learn more about those original nations who populated and stewarded these lands for millennia and whose wisdom can help us today.

Theater Design

“Marriage of Figaro” chosen for the rococo time period.

A simple design that gives the audience understanding of the play subject while staying cost effective and relatively easy to build.

The paper model is all true to the stage at Cabrillo (the college) and required a lot of design and maths to get right.

👣 The Owner Writes....

"I will be 86 in four months, lived in the Haight Asbury from 1964 to 1969 then moved to Santa Cruz and Cabrillo College and UCSC. Lived at 625 Ashbury, a 13-room flat with gas lights that still worked, two floors,s, and $650 rent, shared with another couple. Later to Delmar Street, two doors down from the backyard of The Grateful Dead house on the 700 block of Ashbury. Grass was $75 to $85 a kilo back then and Owsleys tabs were almost free. If you attended the Playland gatherings (Steve Gaskin) at the beach you could get handfuls of LSD for nothing. Alan Watts had his school on the Avenues, Asian Studies Inst., and I was lucky to audit some classes back then. I also lived in the apartments at Cole and Haight and here is Janis with my Blue VW bus in the background"

A new mural by Watsonville-based artist Francisco Alonso is slowly coming together at Cabrillo College’s main campus in Aptos.

This past May, for the first time in its history, Cabrillo’s graduating class was 50% Latinx. 

Alonso, who attended Cabrillo in the 1990s, said he wants to represent as many cultures and histories as possible in his work. Born in an indigenous community in Michoacán, Mexico, Alonso grew up in Watsonville, and was continually inspired by civilizations from all over the world. 

“I’ve always been interested in different cultures,” he said. “Especially in the Americas. As I got older, after learning more … I started taking classes and doing research in libraries.”

Alonso dabbled in art from an early age.

While at the school, Alonso helped establish a Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan (MEChA) program, aiming to bring educational and cultural events to the school that would help overcome racism. He eventually transferred to San Francisco State University, where he received a degree in art.

After learning that Cabrillo was holding an open call for artists to do a mural, Alonso applied and went through the process of rendering his proposal. Alonso’s mural, entitled “Unity,” was chosen by Cabrillo leadership after a committee of staff, faculty and students thoroughly reviewed each applicant. 

“Our committee reviewed a total of 11 excellent proposals from local artists, ultimately narrowing it to a top five and sending those five out to Cabrillo’s student body for input,” Claudia Hernandez, academic counselor and member of the school’s Chicano Latino Affairs Council said in a press release. “The timing of this project and the message of ‘Unity’ conveys a positive vision and an important message.”

Alonso’s piece was inspired by totems, which he said, “represent a community’s history and memories, and their relationship to creation and the elements.” Represented in the work are symbols of indigenous ancestral wisdom and knowledge from various cultures.

The mural will be located on the back of a campus elevator in front of the 500 building.

Outlining kicked off Sunday, and by Wednesday Alonso was busy filling in sections. Spacing out to safely work has been a challenge, Alonso admitted. Originally they were going to bring in students to help, but with Covid cases once again rising, they chose to be cautious. 

“Only about two people can safely work together on the mural, side-by-side,” he said. “It’s a bit of an awkward spot. So we’re scaling things down.”

Work should be completed by the time Cabrillo’s fall semester begins in the next couple of weeks, Alonso said. Then, they might bring art students by to hear Alonso speak about the mural and his process. 

“The weather has been friendly, so I’m hopeful things will go smoothly,” Alonso said. “I’m just very honored to be selected to do this mural.”

ED KEMPER - utilizó la cabeza de su madre decapitada como blanco para dardos después de matarla y abusar de ella....

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kemper mató a diversas estudiantes que encontraba en la autopista, a las cuales llevaba a zonas rurales aisladas para matarlas acuchillándolas, con arma de fuego o asfixia y después trasladarlas a su apartamento donde practicaba necrofilia para posteriormente desmembrar los cuerpos. Usualmente, arrojaba los cuerpos desmembrados a barrancos o los sepultaba en campos, pero en cierta ocasión enterró la cabeza de una víctima de 15 años en el jardín de su madre en una especie de broma divertida: él señaló que ella "siempre quiso que las personas la admiraran". Asesinó a 6 colegialas, incluyendo dos estudiantes de la Universidad de California donde trabajaba su madre y una del Cabrillo College. Reveladoramente, después de discutir con su madre era cuando cometía los asesinatos.

En abril de 1973, Kemper golpeó repetida y violentamente a su madre hasta matarla con un martillo de zapatero mientras ésta dormía. La decapitó, violó su cabeza la cual usó como diana y arrojó sus cuerdas vocales al triturador de la cocina. En su declaración, Kemper dijo que "eso parecía apropiado, tanto como ella me maldijo, gritó y chilló por muchos años". Finalmente comió parte de sus órganos y durmió cuatro noches con el cuerpo en estado de putrefacción. También invitó a casa a una de las mejores amigas de su madre ajena a lo que había ocurrido y la estranguló....

Se dirigió con el coche hacia el Este, sin escuchar en la radio ninguna noticia sobre sus asesinatos. Desilusionado, frenó y llamó a la policía para confesar que él era El asesino de las colegialas. Les confesó qué había hecho y donde podían encontrarle, además de reconocer su necrofilia y canibalismo....

Hello, I'm an aspiring artist looking to make my way into the comics/animation business. I was wondering if it was alright to ask you the general courses you took that helped further your career? I believe you mentioned that you're in an art school in one post, would you say it's beneficial? (I hope this is alright to ask on tumblr, I'm just trying to gather some information about college)

Yo! 

Sure, I can talk about my educational background. I attended my local community college (Cabrillo College) first, where I did my general education classes and got an AA degree in studio art-- basically a bunch of fundamental art classes trying out different mediums, and a smattering of graphic design. I also took as many screenwriting classes as I could. I think community college is a good idea, especially for general education: it’s less expensive, doesn’t require you to travel as far from home (usually), you can learn how to manage college-level workloads without the stakes being as high as they could be. And in my case, the general ed instruction was actually MUCH BETTER than the full-time university I attended next. 

That said, when it came to my specialization (animation/illustration), the dedicated program at my university (San Jose State) was the first place where I received any meaningful instruction on visual storytelling, and experience working with other artists face-to-face. Going through their animation/illustration BFA program (and again, taking all the available screenwriting courses on the side) was incredibly important for me. I wouldn’t be the artist and storyteller I am now without it--not even close. But the thing is, you get out of it exactly as much as you put in. School provides a framework for education, but you still have to do most of the work yourself. If you’re very, very good at self-discipline you can do the same thing on your own; be aware of how you best learn, review the options for schools, and weigh the benefits of formal education versus the cost. This isn’t true for every field, but in art jobs, a degree and your GPA generally don’t matter to your hireability; it’s your portfolio and soft skills that matter. Do what works best for you.

(If you live in or near California, San Jose State’s Animation/Illustration program is one of the cheapest options available while also being legit good, and having a truly outstanding student culture. The only roadblock is that the GPA requirement is the highest at the school, it was 3.85ish when I applied).

Creative Writing Final Reflection

Creative Writing Final Reflection

After a quarter and a half of business school and the work that went into the application and GMAT, I was starting to feel a little bit like I was losing myself. I hadn’t made anything for myself in ages which was making me seriously anxious. But between graduate school and work demands, I knew I would never make time to correct the imbalance.

My solution? Enroll in another class on Tuesday…
