(re)Imagining the City

Back when I was a fresh and enthusiastic undergrad penned a blog ‘Imagining the City‘. There, I tried to churn some thoughts on the city and the spaces I was surrounded by on a daily basis. It aimed to be a blog about space. Space is definitely a central interest of mine. Anyways. Imagining the City kind of died and as I worked my way up the university ranks I began this blog as a way of taking my lonely PhD path beyond the dusty confines of the (shared) office walls.

I think it has been working. I’m sorry for the lack of posts lately. Often I feel as though I am quite the writer. However, for the last few months – not so much. I’m sure my motivation will come back. After all, there are so many exciting things happening around me. And it’s nice, two years in….to be able to look back and smile that I’ve actually achieved something.

To cut to the chase. Imagining the City is back. I love to take photos….and Flickr just wasn’t cutting it. I needed somewhere I could post my favorites. Somewhere they could sit in a relatively large size….away from cluttered text or sidebars or links or colors. I’ve stocked it up with a few posts to whet your appetite…but please add it to your reader. I’ll still be here, of course….but there is where you can really see who I am. Where I am. Who I wish I could be….and all that stuff.

Sure, here I imagine space in one sense….but there is where my imagination can be brought just slightly more to life.
