DVDs AS Art... It's beginning!


"Catholics get creative in response to archbishop's anti-gay-marriage message" is the headline of a front page story in today's Pioneer Press. (Click on title for link.) The subtitle is "Anti-gay marriage message has local Catholics buzzing"--and that really captures the focus of the story: people's reactions to the DVDs.

There are even a couple pix in the story of me working in my new medium. (Photo to left by Jean Pieri from Pioneer Press article).

On a different note---People keep telling me, "I haven't received my DVD yet". I know bulk mailing can be slow, but I'm hearing this from so many people, I'm beginning to wonder if the diocese stopped mailing the DVDs after seeing all the kerfuffle they've caused...

Those who have yet to receive your DVDs--never fear! You can continue to send them to me via ReturnTheDVD.org or our collection boxes (see sidebar). I will continue to incorporate DVDs into my sculpture up until the last week of October, and ReturnTheDVD will continue to collect them even beyond that date. So, keep 'em coming--even if you get yours weeks from now!

I know a couple of people who were saying they were Catholic but hadn't received the DVD. I asked if they were registered at a specific parish. Nope. I think a lot of people thought they would get it, but were not actually registered at a parish.
