OOOOkay, it's been some time since my last post, as you can see. After my fundraising campaign for The Beginning Was The End closed in March, I immediately turned 40 and dove head first into business: residency at Kala Art Institute, project and website development, a visiting artist gig at UC Santa Barbara, studio visits, non-stop proposal writing for grants, residencies, and fellowships... Fyewf. Any other trust-fund-free artist will do the same thing given the chance, though; I'm just very lucky to have some extraordinary support out there to make mine possible.
The highlights of what's been on my menu since then are right on the landing page of that new site, of which I'm so proud-- www.oillyoowen.com-- and on my Facebook group for The Beginning Was The End, so I'm going to jump back in here without much ado:
The piping hot news is that I recently returned from a meeting at the Getty Research Institute, and without jinxing anything I will say that it was a wonderful and extremely influential day that I will not forget. Among a few other sizable opportunities, aside from this, I'll be applying for fellowship there for their 2013-14 year. Any and all news will be posted here, to be sure.
In the meantime, I've just finished a new diagram on Javanese time, Tatal Pawukon that features in Keeping Time, an exhibition on the marking, tracking, measuring and the keeping of time at Kala Art Institute Gallery in Berkeley, California:

More to come, but that's all for now!
