I think being an artist is not so much something you choose as something that you are born being. You are an artist and then you work around or with that. There are a lot of people in medicine in my family and I have often envied them for the logical progression of their careers: medical school, residency, patient care. It’ s not like that with art.

“An estimated 20,000 children were born of rapes that occurred during the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Fifteen years later, the mothers of these children still face enormous challenges, not least of which is the stigma of bearing and raising a child fathered by a Hutu militiaman. Over the past three years, photographer Jonathan Torgovnik has made repeated visits to Rwanda to document the stories of these women.

Talk about results! Just the other day I dinged Panasonic for not having a movie mode in the Micro-4/3rds-system G1, and today they fixed the issue with the new DMC-GH1. Kidding — we knew it was coming — but the good news is that this new camera combines videos and stills in ways that Nikon and Canon should pay attention to.

What more could you have done? You could have competed more effectively. Owens complains about “substitute home pages,” where the Boston.com was trying to take away GateHouse’s readers. There’s a pretty straightforward response to that: if that’s all it takes to take away your community, you’ve failed your community. If the entire value of your site was in providing the headlines and ledes, and someone else copying those headlines and leads causes you to lose the community, you haven’t been providing enough value to that community, and you deserve to lose it. Newspapers have neglected their biggest asset, their own communities, for way too long, and this is another example of that. If GateHouse provided a better service where the value went beyond the headline and the lede, there wouldn’t be concerns about how such “copying” would take away from GateHouse.
