Heh. Talk about synchronicity. I'm taking the Warhol class on Coursera that just started this week. On Wednesday I posted a pic to my Facebook feed of Warhol and Debbie Harry with an Amiga, commenting mostly on the Amiga [0].
Cool to see this today. :-)

- k-mcgrady 13y agoWhat do you think of the course so far? I added it to my watch list but haven't started it yet.
- waterlesscloud 13y agoTo be honest, the first week is a bit thin on content. But the forums are lively and valuable, so they might make it worth the time.
- drzaiusapelord 13y agoInterestingly enough, that was an Amiga event that paid him who knows how many dollars to edit an image of Harry for the press. From what I've heard he wasn't into digital art at all. The images from this article are from the same deal, Amiga paying him to commission work to show off their new PC. I just saw that Buzz Aldrin is now the spokesperson for Avaya. I hope kids in the future don't remember him for being into phones in his later years. I'm sure he doesn't give two shits about phones. This is also why my astronaut mancrush is for Neil Armstrong. He seemed to keep a private life which just feels so much more endearing to me. There's something cheap about constantly using one's celebrity for a quick paycheck and touting words like "leader," and "visionary" and other marketing junk. Are all celebrities destined to shill some product they're not really interested in? Seems to be the case.
