Like the man holding the taxedermied wolf in the image above, I am carrying this blog back, post-mortem. (But would you have known it was a dead wolf if I didnt tell you? Exactly.) I have quite fully converted my life over to tumblr since 2009, but I think there is something worthwhile in this little corner of the internet that I have dubbed "haptic arts." So all you haptic arts fans (all 0.5 of you?), lets hop to it!
Let's take a moment to define haptic arts. Haptic refers to the touch or tactile. Art is art (if you want to have a discussion about what art is, I suggest you take it elsewhere, since I am content to define it quite broadly, here). I will take this space to muse on: tactile arts, artifacts, the intangible, the virtual, and the physical. Since 2009, I have become more and more interested in food studies, farming, and the pleasures of eating with good company. I see a connection with all of this, so I will be taking the time to explore that in the blog posts to come.
