Ethan Nichtern rocks da mic
Anyway -- just wanted to give you a shot from Ethan Nichtern's appearance at New York's Rubin Museum of Art. He was there to read from and discuss his new book, One City: A Declaration of Interdependence.
A good-sized group of people made it to the event, which was split between a sort of informal reception in the museum's K2 Lounge, then the reading up on the 6th floor (he read the book's incredible prologue, which you can also read for yourself here), and then back to the Lounge for booksignings and general cooling out. There were even particularly great-lookin' One City shirts for sale (proceeds go to the Interdependence Project), which Ethan founded.
Keep your eye on this guy. He writes and reads and teaches like the gentlest whirlwind you've ever seen.
AND: if you've never been to the Rubin Museum, you've GOT to go. Amazing Buddhist/Himalayan art and the people are cool, too.
Can't believe I hadn't been there before. Well, it won't be the last time, I hope!
