The painting didn't in any way resemble the landscape.

The deadline is drawing near...
The deadline for the Call for Papers is 31 January 2013.
We are interested in papers from the fields of jewellery and metalsmithing that explore the links between individuals and communities, both real and virtual, through participation and exchange.
The conference theme has been chosen to specifically focus on collective participation and inspirational initiatives in contemporary practice.
We want papers that explore, investigate, uncover or expose participation and or exchange in practice within the fields of jewellery and metalsmithing. Approaches for this may include but are not limited to:
1. Individuals and communities facilitating exchange of ideas, innovative models of interaction, cross cultural collaboration, experimentation and the development of strong networks.
2. Participation through dialogue, action and initiatives, activities to motivate change, to shift ideas or ideals.
3. The increasing relevance (or irrelevance) of online communities for contemporary practice. Do online communities enhance practice possibilities or do they take us away from real time in the studio?
4. Historical, contemporary or future contexts of practice. What has changed, what is new?

An Evening in Eden
Keight Davis (J&SO Graduate) is running a fundraising event so she can return China and volunteer again with Eden. Her aim is to volunteer for 12 months next year assisting the Eden project. Eden is a non-profit organisation where jewellery provides an escape from the hopelessness of prostitution and gives the women hope for a future.
The fundraising event will be an evening of live music and desserts. There will be a silent auction and Eden jewellery for sale. Please pass it on to anyone who may be interested!…

PIPA ProjectPIPA Project -
PIPA ProjectPIPA Project - Tricia Flanagan's Project PIPA (short for The Peripatetic Institute of Praxiology and Anthropology) is dealing with things that are close to my heart:
This project is about revaluing skills that are being lost in consumer dependent societies, learning to fix things rather than throwing them away, sewing, repairing, modifying clothing rather than buying new clothes, using creative thinking to come up with unique and individual design solutions and aesthetic objects, reclaiming materials for reuse and developing critical-thinking communities with an eco-friendly attitude.
