Interesting (and a bit odd) article about 10@10
« on: February 15, 2005, 09:23:32 AM »
stumbled across this -- it's about 3 years old, written by Gina Arnold for the Metro (the SJ answer to the Guardian & SF Weekly). What I found odd was her determination that 1985 is a "wonderful" year, while 1971 is "crap" (I think most of us might reverse the 2). She also disses his Earth Day set from 2002 and talks about creating her own (and her own indicates to me she was unclear on the concept). But she does actually interview Dave...

"I can't wait for 1992--that's going to make some amazing sets."

We're still waiting for them, Dave.   :wink:

Gina Arnold is either:

1) Very young
2) Very shallow
3) Some combination of the 2
nakes? On my plane?
