]]>Guiding Principle: Laws are mere codification of “Community Standards.” They are what we collectively decide or allow our standards to be.

Overall Objective
The objective is to question where these standards are coming from, and what they are really trying to accomplish. The show at the Croatian Cultural Center of Greater Los Angeles was very well received by hundreds of guests as well as at least one newspaper review. I learned some things from the visitors, including that virtually everyone agrees with me, and DISAGREES with what is supposedly our "community standard." So, whose community is it?

A second, but not secondary, objective is to invite a viewer to determine what is objectionable. Our society censors images of the nude human body, which is entirely natural, but lionizes and even laughs at violence and threats of violence. Is this in any way sensible?

The Work is Intended to be, and was originally shown, as interactive works, in two Parts:

PART ONE: large prints of images that include something that is absolutely prohibited on broadcast television, Facebook, Instagram or Google+, and something else that anyone can see virtually any day or night on any television or social media platform. These were printed 48 inches wide with"CENSORED" signs that could be placed where an individual found something objectionable.

Viewers were ENCOURAGED to find one of the window clings to mark something on each of the images that the viewer believed might be frightening or harmful to children and mark it.

Versions of the original PART ONE images are on this page below.

PART TWO: was a small “gallery” of images that (all but one) have been removed, drawn warnings from the social media sites, or are clearly in violation the social media web site “community guidelines.” Viewers were ENCOURAGED to mark the images or parts of images that make them uncomfortable with the CENSORED window clings.

Some of those images are included in the blog posts linked below, many of them are in other galleries on this web site, and you can buy your very own prints of those dangerous images!

]]>The Federal District of México is one of the world's largest and most interesting cities. Although it has its own problems, it also has some features that anyone who consumes a lot of media in the USA will find surprising. The food is amazing, and there are no burritos (maybe some, but really it is not Mexican food). The music and other arts are in full display. And personally I feel safer there in the traffic than in most other cities.

]]>People knew Dottie could play, and she had made a fairly good living as a "side man." But people didn't know that she had been frustrated having to always play the music of others, when she had much to say with her own music. So she took time off from touring, and went to New Orleans to dig around for roots, collaborators, and beignets. And she took some time for herself to think about it.

There are a few additional images of Dottie's more private moments. But you need a key to open that room. Email info@elimagenero.com for the key if you are interested in buying printed copies.

]]>This project is really part of a larger body of work that attempts to show humans in landscapes to provoke thought about the essential and constant interactions that humans have with the Earth. (See, e.g., http://www.elimagenero.net/webelongtothearth) Here, one of the main ideas was to put a human in the landscape of geological "giants" but appearing as up to scale with the giants through use of perspective.

Maybe when we think about perspective, and the Earth, we can begin to take better care of it.
