About

"As the unity of the modern world becomes increasingly a technological rather than a social affair, the techniques of the arts provide the most valuable means of insight into the real direction of our own collective purposes."
~ Marshall McLuhan

NSFW ... (although i like to think that an occasional artistic nude makes the workday a bit more palatable) ...
