Amy Elkins Blog

And in other news...

Thanks to Brian Ulrich I have been preserved in the Wikipedia information super highway as part of a definition for the word Chicagraphy. Of course I'm listed as part of an off-shoot to the definition as an honorable Chicagrapher (a Chicagrapher out of Chicago). I think this is hilarious.

"The term Chicagraphy was coined by photographer Brian Ulrich on his blog as a way to identify the community of artists and their reference to the history of photography. The Chicagraphers are not an exclusive group with memberships but seeks to recognize good photographic projects around the globe. Other spinoff terms would be Minneagraphers (Alec Soth, Paul Shambroom, Justin Newhall, Todd Deutsch, etc...), Omahagraphers, Honorary Chicagraphers (not living in Chicago), Amy Stein, Bill Sullivan, Dylan Chatain, Doug Dubois, Sybil Miller, Amy Elkins, Christian Patterson, Ben Pier, Shen Wei, etc."


Visit Wikipedia and read up on the subject. It's apparently a real word that's out there in the world.
