You have the opportunity to be part of an unprecedented collaborative curation project!
Over the years, David posted thousands of comments on his Facebook page, including information on the titles of various pieces, their dimensions, the media used, and many other stories on their origin and life. For instance, here are all of David’s posts on Battle Cry (#49). In order to collect these pieces of information, we invite all his Facebook friends to go hunting for David’s words. Now that we have established a library of pieces with their skins, the goal is to connect all of David’s Facebook posts to each piece and its unique ID number. Then, for every piece, we will combine all posts associated with it to reconstruct its narrative. At the very least, we will be able to give a title to most of the pieces that are now called “TBD”, and for the others we will welcome your suggestions.
After some deliberation, we concluded that the simplest course of action was to log David’s posts in reverse chronological order, based on the folder “David’s photo” in the tab “Photos” of his Facebook page. At any time, you can add to the shared log, which you can access by clicking here:
To help the search, here is a list of pieces ordered according to their ID number.
If you want to share details about a particular piece gathered in conversations with David or in private emails, please comment at the bottom of the page associated with that piece. If you own one or several of David’s pieces please let us know. For any other comment, please go to the forum.
