HP Digital Publishing Community Meeting
The third meeting of the HP Digital Publishing Community was held at PUCRS in Porto Alegre, Brazil on September 21-22, 2006. The purpose of the meeting was to establish research objectives that would enable members of the community to focus individual efforts on problems of common interest. Three broad areas of interest were drawn out of a long list of issues and problems developed on the first morning. These were further refined in breakout groups during the afternoon and into the next morning. This book is part of an experiment in multi-channel publishing that I am designing with RIT graduate student, Adam Dewitz. Adam is going to create a number of different published versions of this content using a wide variety of web-enabled print channels. We will share the results of Adam’s work at the next meeting of the Community in April 2007. See you all there!

Taking Gus to College
We pulled out of the driveway shortly before 7:00 on the morning of Saturday, August 26. We had spent the previous evening doing last-minute packing along with finishing painting the walls in the front hallway. We had to get to New York early enough for Patty and Elaine to make a 2:00 p.m. performance of the broadway musical, Wicked, at the Gershwin Theatre on 51st Street. (I had made a careless mistake when I bought the tickets online, thinking that they were for the 8:00 p.m. show. Fortunately Patty looked at the tickets two days before we departed, saving us the terrible experience of discovering that they had been for the matinee upon arriving at the theatre that evening.)

Gus Hugs Elaine
Elaine was in the 2006 Geva Summer Theatre Academy. Every third summer the theme of the Academy is Shakespeare. On the afternoon of August 12 the Academy presented a showcase of material prepared during the previous five weeks. Elaine played Puck in a scene from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. She invited our friends Diana and her mother Amy, Maya and her mother Maimoona, some friends from RAPA, as well as Patty, Gus, and me. I was delighted by all of the performances and amazed at how polished everything was.

Moment of Graduation
McQuaid Jesuit High School in Rochester New York held its 2006 commencement ceremony at the Eastman Theatre on the evening of Sunday June 11. There are all kinds of ways to depict an event like this photographically. In years past I would have produced a collection of disjointed snapshots. I like this collection better because all of these images are connected to one another. Another possible book of connected images might contain a time lapse sequence of the party in the street from beginning to end. Such a book might be used by social scientists or event planners to support their research. This book has no such utility. It merely depicts an extended moment about 20 seconds in duration at the climax of the celebration. This is the moment that marks as precisely as possible the fact of final liberation from high school.

Lilac Festival Sequences
This book offers four brief glimpses into a week-long event that could easily keep a legion of photographers busy for the whole time. Still, in the twenty some years I have been going to the festival, my visual memories of it are well represented here. If I could somehow include in these pages the odors of fried dough, Italian sausage, cotton candy, and grassy mud all mixed together, along with a soundtrack of badly covered oldies from the FM dial, you would be holding the better part of my cumulative impressions of the Rochester Lilac Festival in your hands.

Stone Temple
When we got out of the car to walk over to the temple, we were approached by vendors trying to sell us trinkets. From one of them I bought a small carved stone elephant with the words “good luck” etched into its back. This attracted a mob of fellow vendors for whom the word “no” seemed only to serve as a strengthening elixir at every utterance.

Hochstein Music School: Between Performances
Hochstein Music School is located in Rochester, New York, near the center of town. The school moved into its present building, the former Central Presbyterian Church, in 1975. Hochstein was founded in 1920 by a group of Rochester community leaders as a memorial to their fellow citizen, David Hochstein, a brilliant young violinist who lost his life at the Battle of Argonne in France in 1918. For 85 years, Hochstein has been a place where anyone with the desire to learn can study music or dance with talented professionals from the local area. To ensure that music education is available to everyone, Hochstein indexes tuition rates to family income. Hochstein also has an extensive music therapy program serving hundreds of disabled Rochesterians.
