I just left the rehearsal of my TEDxBend talk that will be streaming live from Bend High School Auditorium tomorrow, Saturday, April 23, at 1PM PST at www.tedxbend.com! It was really exciting to be up there this morning and I can't wait to feel the energy of the crowd tomorrow!
The local paper in Bend ran a program guide which shows my bio for the opening act. Angie made that photograph of me two years ago so don't ever let her tell you that she isn't a published photographer..
Today I made the trek across the country from Charlotte, NC to Bend, Oregon. I've never made it to a pacific coast state and I'm so excited to explore this place!
Fantastic review of my work and exhibition at Rick Wester Fine Art on What Will You Remember? Photography Blog by Elin Spring. This piece gave me the chills.
I am nestled into the beautiful Bend, Oregon anxiously awaiting rehearsal tomorrow for my TEDxBend talk. The community is so pumped about the event. They even have banners on every light post on every street in downtown.
So incredible! They put us up in the very classy Oxford Hotel. I feel the weight of this all and can say that it's a pressure that I'm learning to enjoy. I am so grateful to be given the opportunity to share my ideas at this capacity. Thank you all!
The past several months I have spent countless hours preparing for the largest public talk I have ever presented. I am thrilled to announce that I will be speaking at TEDxBend on Saturday, April 23, 1PM PST. If you just can't wait until the piece is edited and uploaded then you can stream the talk live here.
I'm excited to have my work accompany this well written article on device use in Beobachter.
Thanks David Rosenberg for the very accurate and thoughtful coverage of Removed for Slates Photo Blog, BEHOLD.
This is another one of those spine tingling, heart racing moments of affirmation. Sarah Dunant mentions my series Removed at the conclusion of this hour long conversation about technology and the contemporary pace of life on the BBC program, Start The Week. The entire program is worth a listen and at (40:30) Removed is mentioned as "the society that emerges is like a bleak Edward Hopper".

Glad to contribute some thoughts to this conversation about the health of device use. UCLA will host a panel discussion about the topic tonight at The Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. I wish I could have made it out there.
Show opens at Rick Wester Fine Art in just one week! Thanks Phil Moody for upgrading Melissa's device.
