Brian Lo's Art Reception (1 of 14)
Digital artist Brian Lo started the body of work for his "In Between States" gallery a few years ago. He collected photos off his friends' pages on Myspace and Facebook, and distorted them. "They're about people, mostly," he said. "Interpersonal relationships, detachment and multitasking... all part of the digital culture that we experience together in the modern age."
Brian, who was born in Taiwan and studied in Alaska and New York before moving to Hawaii, did this project partly for his MFA thesis at UH Manoa.
Here's Brian and his mom.

What was Spread the Word?
It was the first look (and taste) of an annual event thrown by Real Word. Magazine, as a way to showcase local arts and cuisine. Think kind of like First Friday, only in a conference hall, and with fantastic food. Real Word. Magazine is a publication launched one year ago (the event was their first anniversary party) to give voice to local artists, poets, and people with stories to tell.
