Thanks for the suggestion. Interesting idea about the Mona Lisa being a self-portrait. I will add a link when I overhaul the site but this will not be until the new year.

Stephen Norwood

Hi!

I found this really interesting!!! I will add a link to it from our site-- when it came in, our site was experiencing technical difficulties (sigh!) and was down much longer than I'd have liked. Now that I've found your message again, I'm going to print it, and will add the link next chance I get.

Thanks--great job!!!!

Dear Steve -

Thank you so much for your recent email.

The students' theory as to the reason for the Mona Lisa's smile is definitely intriguing, and the animation adds credibility to their theory. And, I had read that he also wrote music, but never heard it before. Your students have done good work at this site, and we would be delighted to add them to our resource page. Thank you for drawing their work to our attention.

---Beverly

Subject: MW2001 Program Proposal
Date: Wed, 01 Nov 2000 11:11:17 -0500
From: David Bearman dbear@archimuse.com
To: sjfeld@erols.com

Dear Steve,

Thank you very much for your proposal to deliver a demonstration at Museums and the Web 2001 in Seattle March 14-17, 2001. The Program Committee received a record number of proposals and we believe that your proposal:

would be better suited as a paper. Papers are given in theme sessions with other papers on the same topic. In this format, you would be required to write a formal paper for the conference Proceedings, and would present a short summary or focus on particular points, in a talk of about 20-25 minutes in length followed by questions from the floor and general discussion at the end of the session.

We will publish the preliminary program very soon. Please advise us before Friday November 3 if you can accept change from a demonstration to a paper.

Papers are due January 15, 2001. If you choose to submit a paper, you must use the paper submission guidelines listed on our website (www.archimuse.com/speakers/) and fill out and return the enclosed forms no later than January 15, 2001; Copyright release form, Agreement to Participate, AV request form.

All participants in the MW2001 Conference are entitled to claim a $100 discount on registering for the conference. We hope that this will encourage as many co-authors as possible to come in person, and that it will enable you to consider also signing up for pre-conference workshops.

Sincerely yours,
David Bearman and Jennifer Trant
Co-chairs, MW2001

Site Suggestions for School History

From: Mr Field MrField@BTInternet.com
To: sjfeld@erols.com

My apologies for not responding quicker. Your first e-mail is third on my 'to do list'! Having a quick look both sites appear to be splendid resources. I will have a good look through and then add links to them.

This weekend I will then create a worksheet to use with each resource and then send you a link. If they are to your liking, I'll then put them online for everyone.

Again - my apologies for the delay.

best wishes,
Andrew Field.

Hi Steve,

Let me share with you what Illuminations is. The CD-Zine is the school's literary-arts magazine. Illuminations existed in print form prior to the CD format. Now we include full multi-media. We are not a magazine that publishes work from outside of El Segundo High School because we showcase work of our own students only.

However, I have contemplated publishing a CD-ROM magazine that would be fully sponsored and would seek contributions from everyone. I'll let you know when that happens (if I can get the corporate sponsors together). So for now Illuminations cannot publish work that is not done by our students (just like other high school literary magazines.

Sorry about that,

Ray

Dear Steve,

I will definitely provide the link to your site and will inform you when it's on-line.

I sincerely admire your commitment to this group of students.

I am myself very interested in projects that address the future and hopes of young people in the inner neighborhoods, and hope to be able, some time in the future, to dedicate some time to fight for better conditions and learning opportunities, and alternatives, which I see as the only way to a more equal and peaceful society.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for writing! I went and took a look at the sites and I really enjoyed them. The students have put in an amazing amount of effort and have created two very unique projects! It took me a few tries to get to the key :-)

I would be pleased to add them to the Collaborative Art section on artFUTURE. For the links, just email me a separate image for each one as well as the name you wish on the link and the specific URL to link to and I will get you added. If you would like to condense the descriptions to 2-3 sentences for each one, that would be good for the search engine.

Please congratulate your students for me as they are the generation that will create amazing things with the new technologies. I look forward to seeing them!

All the best,
Alexa
