I really wanted to go to the summit but I have been so busy at work lately I could not justify taking the time off. Did you go? Unfortunately I live just a little too far away to make it to many events in the city.

At 6:54am on September 17, 2008, Cosette Yisrael said…: Greetings Dan, I really enjoyed the Summit yesterday. I am sorry we didn't connect. I didn't stay too long afterwards because I had a class to get to. Thanks for saying Hello

At 11:19pm on September 16, 2008, Anita Birsa said…: Thanks Dan. I just checked out the Chicago Calling web site and the festival looks really interesting. Also, I'm looking forward to seeing Kerouac's On the Road manuscript at Columbia.

At 9:38pm on September 8, 2008, Jonathan Ellison said…: ethnographic rhetoric is her specific interest, although she's been teaching eng comp as part of her assistanceship. I'll be attending. I registered early ($$D'OH!$$), so it would be a waste to miss it. I'm sure your kids would be okay for a class or two, maybe you should break away to the summit.

At 9:37am on September 8, 2008, Vignette-Noelle Lammott said…: Thank you!

The video took some conceptualization but Anna and I work well together so a lot of things just sort of fell into place on their own.

We're collaborating on another piece right now which is also based on some of my writings. Thanks again and please check out more of my work here: vignettenoelle.com

At 7:12am on September 8, 2008, Brian Montana said…: I prefer the city life then the suburbs; more to do and see. Awaiting to finish up my degree and checking into grad programs. Looking into Columbia as a possible school; hard to find colleges that promote new media.

At 12:13am on September 8, 2008, Matthew Sharritt, Ph.D. said…: Thanks!

In my dissertation I used RollerCoaster Tycoon 3, Civilization IV, and Making History: The Calm & The Storm. I ran a qualitative study that described how learning occurred and how the game interface was used. If you want to read more, check out http://www.situatedgaming.com/games.html.

I'm living back home here in Chicago and job hunting currently (I graduated in May). I noticed that Columbia just posted an opening for faculty specializing in game design, have you heard about that? Any recommendations? I was leaning towards a job in the game industry, but that might be fun too.

Thanks for adding me as a friend!
Matt

I'm a marketing and ad pro - agency side and work primarily with packaged goods, retail and food/beverage clients. Most recently I was with MARC USA......and now working as pro-bono account director with Taproot Foundation....while also networking for new opportunities.

I'm actually an alum from Columbia College and see you teach there currently? The Chicago Calling Arts Festival seems like a very cool endeavor.
Cheers,
Ann

At 8:02pm on September 7, 2008, Jonathan Ellison said…: "creative" projects don't always feel so creative, if you know what I mean! How about yourself?

At 7:09pm on September 7, 2008, Lee Barry said…: I play a number of instruments, but I am primarily a bassist. I was an aspiring writer when I was younger, so that naturally spun off an inclination for music composition. I still dabble in poetry, essay and art criticism.

Bill Russo was the head of the music department in the 80s up until his death in 2002, and also director of the Chicago Jazz Ensemble. I thought that he had legacy over there, but perhaps not.

I will check out your ChicagoCalling site.

At 6:50pm on September 7, 2008, Bruce Eric Montgomery said…: Well I have been spending a little time pulling this Summit together! I will be in the TV studio again on Monday to tape a few segments of my www.tatv.org show. What's up on your end? Thanks.
