Rolling NYC is a nonprofit Online Multimedia Gallery dedicated to all manner of creative expression.
The Gallery cordially invites artists to submit material for display at this site. In the writing category, works of fiction and non-fiction are welcome. Please send a message to the Digital Curator at pasdeboeuf@hotmail.com and we will get back to you ASAP. If you don't hear from us in, say, over a week or two max, send another message just in case the first one was deleted accidentally.
CURRENTLY ONLINE:
The Fiction section focuses on published works in English from the 1950s through the 1970s. Rolling NYC is fortunate to include the work of Daniel Spicehandler as part of its permanent collection. Spicehandler, primarily a novelist, has written short stories and poetry throughout his career. His "Golden Age" was when Transatlantic Review, the noted British literary magazine under the editorship of Joseph F. McCrindle, published a number of his stories, along with many writers who are now household names (click on the Fiction link for more on this) and lesser known but equally talented authors. It was the second wave of American expatriates in Paris, or maybe the third. Back in the days of Montparnasse.
The Poetry section, dedicated to all forms of the sweet art, currently hosts the lyrical and profound work of David Michalski, American scholar and poet. "Buffalo: Notebook on My Return" is an ode, in writer's notebook format, to that other great city of New York State, the gritty, snow-packed, fire-burnt Buffalo. For more about the author and the work herein excerpted, click on the Poetry link.
The Images section now includes my own photography. For the most part the shots were taken with an Olympus C-50 Zoom and a Nikon 8008s, poetic devices after their own fashion, freezing light in fractional intersections of space and time. As with web design, I am a newcomer to photography. By training, other than my formal education in library science and linguistics, I am a guitar player.
DESIGN NOTES:i
I still need to learn much more about design (graphic design including editorial design, typography and layout, composition, color theory, perspective, et cetera, et cetera) in addition to more of the workings of all this crazy computer stuff. I recently completed the following continuing education courses at New York's School of Visual Arts: Digital Design Basics (an introduction to Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator), Basic Graphic Design, Macromedia Dreamweaver and Adobe Photoshop. Shortly, certainly before these seemingly insurmountable design issues are resolved, I plan to work more on page content, specifically adding to the photography and fiction sections.
