[-empyre-] Introduction

[Daniel Shown <shownde@SLU.EDU>]

My name is Daniel.  I have a day job as the administrative secretary for
the philosophy department of Saint Louis University, a relatively large
Jesuit university in the central United States.  I am also an artist,
organizer, and activist in my spare time.  I paint, have done
installations, and occasionally work on video or web projects.  I am now
working with some local artists on organizing a large festival in late
August, or early September.  If you are interested in contributing,
contact me.  We have lots of space =).  I am working on a bulletin
campaign right now with some classic progressive themes, but also a few
twists.  "Books Not Bars" "Food Not Wars" "Bikes Not Cars" "Ars Ars
Ars"  I am also a devoted husband to a wonderful ceramic artist, and an
avid Baha'i.

Best!

"I think of Picasso and how he reacted to the bombing of Guernica.  
How he translated his pain and horror into a monumental work that moves 
and teaches us to this day.  I return to my wall." - Patti Smith, 2001
