Thrilled to say that I am going to be attending PBI in just a short couple of weeks. It's like summer camp for people who love paper and books, and I can barely wait to start the long and complicted journey that will result in being there and PLAYING hard for ten blissful days. Both suitcases are stuffed with bits of paper and ephemera and the supplies requested for the three different courses I'm signed up for. Other than supplies I have room for some clean underwear, sacrificial clothing (it might all need to be burned by the end of my stay at Ox-bow), obligatory bug spray, and a toothbrush. Lots of stuff I would ordinarily pack is being sent on ahead courtesy of Amazon.com. More supplies too.
My three classes are the following:
Pressure Printing: A Painterly Approach to the Press with Sarah Bryant
Page Design – It’s an Open Book with Paula Jull
Ideas and Actions in Context and Construction with Tim Ely
I have no idea what any of them entail, and I want to discover the details only when I arrive and settle in. I am eager to meet my fellow attendees and teachers and a little nervous.
Who else will be going? I wish there were a discussion page on the PBI site so those attending could interact a bit before we arrive, but no matter.
I am certainly glad you were there!! PBI was really intense, but wow! How great to find new friends
