TV

This morning I appeared on "The CW Louisville", WBKI, Channel 7, with Karen Welch from the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft, to help promote the art car festivities.  She was great, I was told my part went well, although I'm hardly a good television-type guy. I was able to talk a little about the IUSARTCAR and the project.  It aired this morning, and will repeat, I think, at 4:30 a.m. - be sure to catch it when you're up at that hour sipping on your morning coffee.

Early Morning Filming


Debra and I drove through the rain to WHAS this morning for the filming of the IUSARTCAR. We arrived at about 6:40 a.m. for our 7:00 filming. We pulled into the garage, dried off the van, and watched the cameraman shoot various details.  Then he asked us to also be on-camera and talk about artcar.  We were caught off guard, and in spite of a lack of coffee at that hour, we represented the project and the students who created it pretty well.  The picture above was taken with my phone of the shooting.  The broadcast of it will be today at 9:00 a.m., and then again at 6:00 p.m., maybe again at 11:00.  Hope you catch it at one of those times.

Art Car Weekend

Donna donated some carpets to add to the interior charm.
We added some jewels around the windows to break up that black nothingness.
The colors have chipped off the airship, but a shiny silver was beneath, we decided to leave it be.
Sweeeeeet.
See you in a few weeks.


The IUSARTCAR is ready for its close-up Louisville. Debra and I washed and spruced things up in preparation for tomorrow's filming at WHAS to promote the art car weekend sponsored by the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft.  We replaced the jewels that had fallen off, washed and vacuumed, and re-glitter-glued.  Looks pretty spiffy.  Check the art weekend web site for events and get in touch with me if you're interested in participating. It would be fun to have the old gang back together.
