the lc theater department has asked me to direct something at the school in the fall. i am very, very excited. i was looking at the photos from my senior project and thought i'd share some. if you'd told me then it would be so hard to get myself going outside of school, i'd never have believed you.

Publication Studio

Patricia No and Matthew Staedler opened a small publication studio in the basement of the Ace Hotel's event space The Cleaners that is open 6 am to noon to help you make and print custom books.

Amsterdam Biennale Opening: Drunk by Noon
Saturday, October 24, 2009, 11 am
@ Publication Studio, SW 10th Avenue & Stark Street, Portland, Ore.

The Amsterdam Biennale, which includes a Portland Pavilion featuring 20 books collaboratively made with Portland artists and Publication Studio, will open with a three-city real-time party and massive co-writing collaboration, linking Portland, Amsterdam, and Beirut.
