Click here for my Charlie Rose women in media watch page:
Between Jan 2005 and May 2007, he had 229 women guests for 1303 men guests. And while the vast majority of male guests were thinkers and leaders, the majority of women were actresses and entertainment celebrities. I am troubled that women are still not able to define our own world. Read my essay and see the web art I created below it.

Sarah Orne Jewett in a letter to Willa Cather
"
To work in silence and with all one's heart, that is the writer's lot, he is the only artist who must be solitary, and yet needs the widest outlook upon the world." It was also Jewett who consoled, supported and inspired Cather when Henry James condemned the idea of women writers and refused to read Cather's first novel The Troll Garden.

Thoughts for Month: I am pursuing the field of new media literature now as part of my art. Doing a Master of Fine Arts at Antioch University Los Angeles, and inventing a new form of new media book review and new essays I am creating on the subject of women - particulalry women and music. A wonderful creative time for me. My music and songwriting continue in relation to my writing - and Ric Ickard is pushing me on my next CD, so I am in his studio once a week now with that. On January 11 I have the great honor to play with legendary guitarist, Bob Saxton, who accopanied a legendary idol of mine, Patsy Cline; we did some Patsy Cline and more, and I will post videos and pictures soon. My digital paintings turned to very detailed patterns and I am using them in digital portrait work. With infinite resolution, I could create patterns infinite patterns. I realized while reading physicists David Bohm and David Peat, that what I am actually doing is creating fractals using the technique I developed starting with geometric grids. The images are becoming more beautiful the larger I can create them - more resolution means more complex patterns, but where will I be satisfied to stop?! When they are the size of buildings? If I made one the size of a football field, an observer would need to spend their entire vacation wandering over it and experiencing the patterns, then find ways to look at it close-up and from the air. How would I print such a work of art? Will it ever be realized? - Terry
