Puccini notes
Read about the Italian composer Giacomo Puccini (La Bohéme, Tosca, Madame Butterfly, etc...) at Painter's Keys!
John Lautner, architect
A Frank Lloyd Wright protégé, John Lautner designed some of the most outrageous (and coolest!) houses ever seen. One of which is the Chemosphere (modernist octagon design) which was seen in the movie Body Double as well as in the game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Lautner died in 1994. The Hammer Museum in L.A. is currently featuring him in an EXHIBIT which ends October 12.
BioTech art
Makes for interesting reading. Maybe some cool images. But what else? I don't have a problem with the marriage of art and technology, or technology AS art. Some things for me, just fall into the category of "it is what it is." Maybe THAT's it? ARTS JOURNAL ARTICLE HERE

Have you tried this?
Etsy. It's a place where artists and craftspeople can sell their wares. Also, seems to be a nice place to find an unusual and creative gift. I haven't tried it. I'm thinking about it, possibly to sell smaller paintings, or painted pieces. Let me know if you've had success with it. ETSY
