NYC-based Media Scholar and Visual Artist long drawn to the ancient presences of the Chacoan Culture and landscape.

SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO, March 29th, 2019 — This April, the National Parks Arts Foundation in cooperation with the National Park Service at Chaco Culture National Historical Park will host New York-based media scholar and digital artist Dawnja Burris for the first of the foundation’s 2019 residencies. The artist will spend a month working at various locations around the wide-ranging park complex, and will stay and work in housing and studio provided by the Park Service. A dean at the New School, Professor Burris is a New York City based artist, who is interested in the translation of images through diverse mediation and form. The Residency will run from April 1st to April 30th, 2019, and she will be making a public presentation at the Visitor’s Center Auditorium on April 27th at 3 PM.

Burris is no stranger to the determining sky of the desert southwest. “As a girl I wanted to live on the frontier; I asked my mother to name a planned baby brother “Grey Feather”. Born in Colorado, and raised in West Texas, and Southern New Mexico, Burris is a wanderer and a psychogeographer who aims to tease out, through montages and overlays, the contradictions in modern life by confronting us with recovered ambients of representation, and how they rhyme with more current, everyday images which we might take for granted. “As a media studies scholar, I am fascinated with the oral traditions and early image making and storytelling techniques /technologies, especially with the ways in which early conceptions of human life practices continue, merge and converge in contemporary life.”

We are often conditioned to see Art, Technology, and Nature as antithetical — but through the ancient architecture, petroglyphys and archaeoastronomy at unique places like Chaco Culture National Historical Park, we can see that this is a modern simplification. According to Burris, these interlacings are all around us, and the site of creative opportunity: “My headspace is different in the “urban digital landscape” as the physical and mental expanse of the desert is obviously not present.  The structures and rhythms of life in Manhattan and Brooklyn where I spend the majority of my time are in many ways more constricted but also provide a wealth of opportunity to create work that has resonance with the subjects that occupy my thinking.”

The particular power that the animal has always had in all human culture, which can be seen in totems in ethnography to YouTube and Instagram cat videos, makes up a broad thematic core of Burris’s process. “The traces of animal spirit do indeed have a centrality in my artistic practice. The ubiquitous images of animals that pervade our human world proceed from ancient practices of figuring the animals that we humans have and continue to co-evolve with. At Chaco, I am very interested in the representations made in petroglyph and pictograph forms as well as the continuous animal life that remains an integral part of the ecosystem.  With animal reference being so persistent to human sense-making and storytelling, I am drawn to the form of the shadow and the associations shadow forms conjure when they resemble animal body shapes and movements.”

This re-tracing, and underlining of the forms in the light and shadow of a site specific installation, even ephemeral, is another way to activate and make tangible the spaces at Chaco. In this way, artwork can be seen as another alternative instance of the interpretation that is the Park Service’s work. Adds Burris, “The full land and sky-scape is essential context and material for my work. I see the expanse of the site and material details of the ground, the stone, the roads and the structural remains as present or living artifacts in that they represent a past and a living present at the same time. This simultaneity is a natural condition to me and can communicate a worldview that encourages a stronger sense of paying attention to where we are on Earth and how we are integrating with it and our fellow animal cohabitants.” This park and this artist seem like an ideal match for collaboration.

The April Resident has scheduled a talk and presentation on her work and process at the Visitor Center Auditorium on Friday, April 27th at 3 PM.

Chaco Culture National Historical Park was established as a national monument by presidential proclamation in 1907. This beautiful and isolated complex preserves the historical traces of the sacred Ancestral Pueblo culture. The park is also a Dark Skies certified location, one of the ideal places for astronomy and astrophotography. The Monument expanded to its present boundaries and park designation in 1980. The park is located in the open plains of Northwestern New Mexico, sharing borders with the Navajo Nation and BLM land.

NPAF is a 501(c)3 non-profit dedicated to the promotion of the National Parks of the U.S. through creating dynamic opportunities for artworks that are based in our natural and historic heritage. Artists may apply with their proposals for this residency and find additional information at www.nationalparksartsfoundation.org. The AiR program is made possible through the philanthropic support of donors of all sorts ranging from corporate sponsors, small business, and art patrons and citizen-lovers of the Parks. NPAF is always seeking new partners for its wide-ranging artist-in-residence programs.

Toronto, March 26th, 2019 — Szego Materials Engineering Inc. has begun production of The Szego Mill, a high-efficiency industrial grinder using technology and methods unique in the world of comminution. It offers significant cost savings, with 30x greater volume capacity of a similar-sized ball mill, using up to 10x less power. The Szego Mill is a modular unit and allows tool-free maintenance, cleaning and swapping of parts to change between jobs in minutes. Customizable grinding rollers with an average 10-year life give fine control over particle output size and distribution. There is no grinding media to replace.

Invented in 1971 by Laszlo Szego, this novel machine has been heavily developed and refined over the last 4 decades by Dr. Prof. Olev Trass of the University of Toronto Applied Chemical Engineering Dept. Although never previously commercialized, the Szego Mill has been the subject of more than 20 commercial pilot projects throughout the world. These have resulted in over 30 patents and 100+ published research papers which conclude that the Szego Mill offers extremely high cost savings and return-on-investment when used with materials ranging from coal and oil fuels, to pulp and paper; anaerobic digestion of wastes; protein, oil and mineral extraction; food processing and more.

The Szego Mill will make its commercial debut at the Powder & Bulk Solids show in Toronto, June 4th – 6th. For more information please see www.szegomill.com

About the Company: Szego Materials Engineering Inc. is a family business building on four generations of ingenuity and innovation with grinding machine patents going back to 1899. All our products are invented, developed and made in Canada.

Los Angeles, CA, March 21st, 2019 — MobileWash, the mobile car wash app, has grown 300% each year. A true on-demand car wash app, MobileWash brings the car wash to you at home or work. This year, MobileWash has grown even further, as a spokesman confirmed “The company is expanding into 5 states by the end of Summer; from California into Nevada, Florida, Arizona and Texas.”

Unlike other mobile car wash apps, MobileWash has extremely high standards, dedicated customer service representatives, and branded vehicles. For example, MobileWash performs background checks as part of the vetting process and only partners with professional, insured, auto detailers. In addition to the Express, Deluxe and Premium options, MobileWash offers a la carte add-ons, such as clay bar treatment, paste wax and water spot removal, to name a few.

Both customers and service providers are seeing the benefits of choosing MobileWash. Thousands of weekly users trust MobileWash’s Quality Assurance Team, always working towards increased customer satisfaction.

As the company has grown, a major obstacle was converting the mindset of professional service providers to the MobileWash standard. But, through hard work and dedication, the company’s core values have been adopted by all their washers.

“We’re always improving the app to ensure customer and detailer fulfillment. Our dedicated users are wonderful. For instance, Suzy in Glendale has used MobileWash 58 times, with her Land Rover, in the last 17 months. Kris from Huntington Beach has entrusted us with his Cadillac 64 times, in the last 17 months. Matt from Long Beach has trusted us with his BMW 54 times in the past 19 months. Along with these avid users, there are many others who count on MobileWash weekly. With how expansive the company has become, we get many requests a day from cities that don’t have MobileWash yet, so ideally we’re just going to keep expanding.” Al Davi, CEO of MobileWash.

MobileWash uses dynamic pricing. The price of their car wash and auto detailing service is calculated based on the make and model of the vehicle, the time of day, and other factors.

MobileWash stands by its motto, “Car Wash in Minutes.” To experience MobileWash, download the app, on GooglePlay or App Store.

Los Angeles, CA, March 8th, 2019 – The invention we all have waited for is finally in the works. Entrepreneur and Author Jameson C. Montgomery is on the verge of improving the traditional paper plate! This invention is right up there with the idea that cereal bags inside of the boxes should be resealable by now. He is constructing the design and outlining what should be done and has created a funding page to help with the cost to bring this invention to life.

“Being a parent even the simplest of decisions can turn into a brainstorming session”, says Jameson. I find myself in the mornings giving my son some cereal without milk in bowls and then he requests a pancake and I am like okay, let me get a plate.” “It’s a simple, but a helpful mechanism to be able to use this future product longer than a napkin, for once,” Jameson explains.” You will be able to take a plain flat disposable friendly paper plate, but will have the ability to fold the outer lining of the plate to form a bowl, then back into a plate if needed.”

Jameson has recently launched his funding page to make this invention possible. His targets of where the product will be utilized are coffee shops, school cafeterias, and restaurants. Visit the link to support Jameson C. Montgomery on his quest to make life a little simpler.
