marching forward...

march's eLABorations are almost finished, and april's eLABorations are just around the corner. we're 25% through this year-long experiment, and there have been some very interesting images submitted this past month, and some surprising echoes/ parallels (something in the air? spring, perhaps?).

once again, i'd be very interested in your responses to our previous questions:
  • which combinations [this month] are more effective or resonant for you? why do you think that is?
  • which pieces [this month] are less effective or 'flatter' for you? why do you think that is?
further, i would like to hear your thoughts on how you think the text is functioning. there have been several comments about the text component, particularly the framing of the text. what are your thoughts about it? does the frame bother you? why or why not? how do you think the text would function without the frame? does the placement of the text matter to you? let me know what you think.

naturally, i have my own thoughts and plans as to how and why the text is as it is, but i am definitely open to being shifted.

please consider revisiting past pieces and commenting or re-commenting on them. as the collaboration moves forward, it would be good to see if the ongoing narrative impacts how we read past collaborations.

thanks again to those viewing and/or participating.
