   I have always thought that this sculpture really captures a very significant personal experience in a very simple, clear and visually pleasing way, and I have also always thought that it was under-appreciated, and that it should have won awards at Brickfest last year.

Thanks for the kind words, Cyndi. Emerge has actually had a very good response- I think its just that Brickfest, Brickshelf, and our other forms of sharing having a different center of attention.

There have been a few occasions where people have seen it and- even in the presence of a really massive monumetal works of other people- made an unsolicited comment of appreciation. That has given me a really good feeling not because I’m looking for a pat on the back, but because I’m exposing a very personal aspect of myself. So to hear others just say “I get it” is enough.

You’ve been very encouraging to me not only in building, but also as an experienced scientist. Consider the third version yours as my thanks.
