What a bizarre week or so I’m having! I’m writing this from the Marble palace of the Russian Museums, in St. petersburg, Russia, where I’m attending the CIDOC/ADIT 2003 conference on museum documentation. I gave a short presentation about ARTstor this morning, which was translated in real-time into Russian! St Petersburg is great — very beautiful.

Before coming to Russia, I had to fly on two red-eyes on two consecutive days, because I came almost directly from the Burning Man festival in Nevada — I was only back home in Brooklyn for about 8 hours!
