weeknotes museum teaching movies music tech

This Week:

Hartwick’s semester started so a lot of what I did was administrative jockeying. Forms filled in, emails sent and received, and sent again.
I started teaching MUST204: Collections Management.
I did some consultation around collections work.
I helped students to finish the installation of our newest exhibit on Micronesia.
My wife and I continued our Criterion odyssey by watching “The Man who Knew Too Much”, another early Hitchcock masterpiece. As I said to my wife, all of these movies are essential templates for what would become major blockbuster genres over the course of the 20th century, with this movie being in the “race against time” rescue film.
I bought albums by Sharon Van Etten and Neurosis
With the help of the Minister of Intrigue, I took a slightly bigger step towards setting up a static website.
