Ohlone: Construction and Cindy Sherman

Did you enjoy the discussion about constructed photographs?

Here's a video about Cindy Sherman and her iconic work with constructed self portraits.

Ohlone: The Ohlone Pony

It was rumored that the Pony was gone with the arrival of our new parking structure.  But fear not!  I spotted the Pony today on my way in.

Hop on the Pony for a ride up the hill.  It runs until the afternoon (sorry night class).
I hope this will encourage you to try public transit this semester.
