As we enter into the home stretch, the final three weeks. We approach furniture. I’m approaching this sofa table which now exists on paper.

At Penland, we participate in each other’s concentrations. The “bookmaking” group sponsored an event on April 1st -“International Edible Book Day”. This is the birthday of French gastronome Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin (1755-1826), famous for his book Physiologie du goût, a witty meditation on food. April fools’ day is also the perfect day to eat your words and play with them as the “books” are consumed on the day of the event. This festival is a celebration of the ingestion of culture and a way to concretely share a book; it is also a deeper reflexion on our attachment to food and our cultural differences. My entry below, and others in the gallery below that.

About My Adventure in 3D Design
FROM THE PENLAND SCHOOL HANDBOOK:
While at Penland, you can expect to work hard, learn a lot, make friends, and forget about the rest of the world in an isolated setting without the distractions of phone, TV, or daily newspapers. You can also plan to have fun, eat well, and get the kind of rest that comes from total immersion in something you love.
