** STOP CENSORSHIP! **
Our censorship fight with the US Congress is far from over, as they continue to attempt to break the Internet with legislations driven by crony capitalism in the US and abroad. Though SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and PIPA (Protect IP Act) have been pulled back for now, more continue to follow them. Now, we have to contend with ACTA (more) and TPP (2), which are international attempts to censor and control the Internet for the sake of commerce. And if that's not enough, now there's CISPA (more).

Especially now that lobbyists are admitting out loud that they expect to be rewarded for their "contributions": Read it on TorrentFreakThanks for visiting!

Paper Comes Alive Delightfully
I seriously love paper, especially when it becomes decoratively vibrant. Paper scroll work allows art to become 3-dimensional in such a delicate way. My Modern Met covered artist Yulia Brodskaya with her latest creation, so I decided to visit her … Continue reading

Signs Of New
