(∃x) If you are viewing this page somewhere other than on the Wikipedia, it is because someone has decided to mirror my Wiki page in order to drive traffic to their ad-revenue site. This helps them collect "view" money via some of the ridiculous ads that you are probably seeing in the <-- left or right --> margins or up there ^^ in the banner area. E.g., right *now* "www.ireference.ca" is using my collection of interesting pages to sell detox pills, 9mm handguns, and anti-cancer soft gels. Personally I couldn't care less if this information is appropriated; I'm pretty Copyleft as a rule, but I think that most of the stuff in those ads is bogus and shady and you should not click on the links or buy anything from a page that features this list. I have seen sites in Russian and sites from Nigeria mirroring my silly page. The Internet is really fascinating. Last time I counted (yesterday) I was watching 3505 pages on here so I imagine that I do help with the traffic! (∃x)
I have determined that my first edit was made to the Natural Science page on November 7, 2002. I added the MIT link at the bottom of the page, a link that is now defunct. Look at that page as it was then and think about how much the Wikipedia has grown!!!
I also wrote a very long entry on Sonya Rapoport an artist whose studio I visited in Berkeley and who I thought deserved a page. I am an art historian and I used materials from her archives to create all the sections and linked each with verifiable citations. In working on the page I got to know her, so what was not COI when I began writing the page might have become COI a year or so later, (though she has since died). I only used information from articles to write the entry, was strictly POV etc. I did not receive payment. I'm just putting this here to be transparent in case there is a question.
I also wrote an entire article on the artist Nick Fudge whose work I learned about in England. We do have mutual friends in common but I relied wholly on articles and published interviews and did not receive payment. I simply thought his work and story warranted an entry.
I was also a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador at the University of California, Berkeley for three separate classes.

Note: This page looks a little empty, but if you highlight it, you will find brief definitions for each entry / (or else, in the case of seemingly dull things, the thing about that dull thing that interested me.) At least in the beginning...I just haven't had time in the last six years to keep up with the maintenance as I should. Ahahaha I've been on here like 20 years now, so...

- What the filmmaker is doing is called Under cranking. If a film camera is filming at a very fast rate, you will get a slow motion shot. If the camera is filming at a very slow rate, the image will appear to be moving very fast. Film runs at 24 frames per second to get a real time image. If you only capture 12 frames per second, the image will move twice as fast. This is why old films from the teens and twenties will sometimes look like the people are moving comically fast. The cameras used to be hand cranked, so the human factor would affect the speed of the image. 28 Days Later was shot on digital video. The camera they used ran at 30 frames per second, so the effect was artificially simulated in editing, but the principle still applies. They may have even cut a few frames out here and there to achieve the desired effect.

- Jules Raudnitz "The artist Jules Raudnitz (1815-72) brings 19th-century photography even closer to standard postmodern practice. In his series Bloody Sabbath he photographed reliefs, sculptured by an unknown artist, depicting various famous events from the Commune saga, then photographed and hand-colored them as stereograph slides."

- "The Village--although M Night blah blah blah claims he had the idea for the plot totally sui genesis--is identical to a 14th century French fable that was the subject of a really interesting annales school study in the 1980s. The original is super fascinating, Natalie z Davis mentions it in "fictions in the archives."
- Roberto Cuoghi: "Italian artist Roberto Cuoghi burst onto the scene with a now-legendary 1998 "life-share" performance, in which he attempted to transform himself, for all intents and purposes, into his own father, swelling to more than 300 pounds, dying his hair white, and growing a beard. Essentially, Cuoghi voluntarily lived in the body of the much older, ailing man for several years, until his father passed away. According to reports, the long-lasting performance had extreme health effects, and even required surgery to return the artist to his younger self -- a bit like body modification art in reverse."
