Whether taken by a photojournalist or captured by my arse; painted by Leonardo (Fig. 1) or by Breugel (Fig. 2); created by Malevich or drawn by Tatlin – there is no existing disciplinary model for understanding images that is definitive or exhaustive of the meanings that they convey to us and the value (or values) they have for us. This is why I began to develop a course in graphic design using a database model, with its potentially infinite archive and its defining filtering and sorting systems.

Do the other moderators have the same powers?

I don't. I asked the admin how that was possible, and he would 'look into it'. I still don't have the ability to do stuff except locking, moving, sticking, and that sort of shit. I can't even check IP's now...

And I asked him about that way over a month ago, so there you go.

[Droolie]

Well, sometimes they ban you for nothing. I hope FCY bans himself soon.

[Xenon]

You like moderating at RZ? I would get sick of spammers and newbs if I had the job there..

[Jona]

There aren't that many...

[Xenon]

There were when I was there!

Most recently, I am in the process of revising the course material, responding both to student input and to my interests in the larger story of visual representation and the opportunities afforded by the database model. For the first two terms, I organized the course on a largely traditional chronological model, with design, fine art, writing, illustration filtered through my attempt to revisit the entire history of visual representation according to a design-dominant paradigm. I have now re-organized the course such that each lecture now encompasses both the historical and the contemporary, presenting a slice of the database pie; a story, in other words, that begins with a database sort of visual images.

You mean that Phoenixian's ban could be a mistake? He must ban twenty members a day to make such an error ^^

[Xenon]

Heh, yeah, but even if Matyuv wasn't there, there were still loads of n00bs.

Along the wall, due to my abiding interest in art, I worked in three art museums, eventually becoming the director of the graphic design department at The Museum of Modern Art in New York, which produces the graphic design for exhibitions, publications and marketing.

[Hunchman801]

I suppose they weren't even banned...

PP was, but it took a while.

There were and continue to be, several men to the development of this course, not least of them the electronic component. I developed this course as an independent, adjunct instructor in a matter of a few months, left largely to my own devices. There were cross-platform issues to deal with; the need to quickly design an application that would be easy to use and reliable; software distribution and assignment submission issues; and the electronic equivalent of paperwork in order to keep track of student progress, grading, etc. Nevertheless, students have responded to the course generally favourably. I was pleased upon reviewing course evaluations for the spring term that many students singled out the helpfulness of the meaning/value paradigm in increasing their understanding of the course material.

[Hunchman801]

Wasn't he on the former RZ?

[Xenon]

Yes, he was, but I didn't know him there too well.

[Phoenixan]

Like how you got banned for requesting "illegal files" when you actually own the game already anyways. Tsk tsk.
