I folded this from an acetate overhead sheet. My inspiration in making this is from a play by Tenesse Williams called “The Glass Menagerie,” about a girl named Laura who was born with one leg longer than the other; hence she had to wear a clamp. Due to her fragile state, she would stay at home looking after her collection of glass animals; her glass menagerie. Her favorite among her collection was the unicorn; a unique creature which did not fit among the rest of her collection; much like how Laura herself felt she did not fit among other people. It was not until her fateful encounter with a former high school mate Jim, where she began to let loose of her inferiority complex and accept who she was. JIM: Now how about you? Isn’t there something you, take more interest in than anything else? / LAURA: Well, I do – as I said – have my – glass collection / JIM: I’m not right sure I know what you’re talking about What kind of glass is it? / LAURA: Little articles of it, they’re ornaments mostly. Most of them are little animals made out of glass, the tiniest little animals in the world. Mother calls them A glass menagerie! Here’s an example of one, if you’d like to see it. This one is one of the oldest. It’s nearly thirteen. Oh, be careful – if you breathe, it breaks ! / JIM: I’d better not take it. I’m pretty clumsy with things. / LAURA: Go on, I trust you with him ! There now you’re holding him gently! Hold him over the light, he loves the light I You see how the light shines through him? / JIM: It sure does shine! / LAURA: I shouldn’t be partial, but he is my favourite one. / ... / JIM: Unicorns, aren’t they extinct in the modern world? / LAURA: I know ! / JIM: Poor little fellow, he must feel sort of lonesome. / LAURA: Well, if he does he doesn’t complain about it. He stays on a shelf with some horses that don’t have horns and all of them seem to get along nicely together. / JIM: How do you know? / LAURA:I haven’t heard any arguments among them! / JIM: No arguments, huh? Well, that’s a pretty good sign ! Where shall I set him? / LAURA: Put him on the table. They all like a change of scenery once in a while ! / ... / JIM: I think it’s stopped raining. Where does the music come from? / LAURA: From the Paradise Dance Hall across the alley. / JIM: How about cutting the rug a little, Miss Wingfield? / LAURA: Oh / JIM: Or is your programme filled up? Let me have a look at it. Why, every dance is taken! I’ll just have to scratch some out. Ahhh, a waltz ! / LAURA: I – can’t dance ! / JIM: There you go, that inferiority stuff ! Come on, try ! / LAURA: Oh, but I’d step on you ! / JIM: I’m not made out of glass. / LAURA: How – how – how do we start? / J IM: just leave it to me. You hold your arms out a little. / LAURA: Like this? / JIM: A little bit higher. Right. Now don’t tighten up, that’s the main thing about it – relax. / LAURA: It’s hard not to. I’m afraid you can’t budge me. / JIM: What do you bet I can’t? / LAURA: Goodness, yes, you can! / JIM: Let yourself go, now, Laura, just let yourself go. / ... / JIM: Loosen th’ backbone! There now, that’s a lot better. / LAURA: Am I? / JIM: Lots, lots better ! / LAURA: Oh, my ! / JIM: Ha-ha ! / LAURA: Oh, my goodness ! / JIM: Ha-ha-ha ! (They suddenly bump into the table. JIM stops) What did we hit on? / LAURA: Table. / JIM: Did something fall off it? I think- / LAURA: Yes. / JIM: I hope that it wasn’t the little glass horse with the horn ! / LAURA: Yes. / JIM: Aw aw aw- Is it broken? / LAURA: Now it is just like all the other horses. / JIM: It’s lost its - / LAURA: Horn! It doesn’t matter. Maybe it’s a blessing in disguise. / JIM: You’ll never forgive me. I bet that that was your favourite piece of glass. / LAURA: I don’t have favourites much. It’s no tragedy, Freckles. Glass breaks so easily. No matter how careful you are. The traffic jars the shelves and things fall off them. / JIM: Still I’m awfully sorry that I was the cause. / LA U R A: I’ll just imagine he had an operation. The horn was removed to make him feel less – freakish! Now he will feel more at home with the other horses, the ones that don’t have horns. . / JIM: Ha-ha, that’s very funny! (Williams, The Glass Menagerie)

My menagerie
by Anne van AlkemadeYes, Frank thought he was a budgie / Even his scales weren’t belied / That he couldn’t whistle and swing / Out of water, that’s why he died.
I’m still on the pets theme. But who is what is anyone’s guess at times.

Taken at Newberry National Volcanic Monument Deschutes National Forest, Central Oregon. This pine tree grows in the middle of The Big Obsidian Flow, I am not for sure of the age but it looks the same as it did on my first visit twenty nine years ago. / Three types of rock on the flow: obsidian, gray pumice (with obvious holes), and white pumice (full of very small holes). Pumice is frozen volcanic foam. / Trees (very few, but most seem to grow in the white pumice. Probably more water can be held in the foamy interior of the white pumice). / Camera Model Canon EOS 40D / Shooting Date/Time 07/25/09 07:10:40 / Shooting Mode Aperture-Priority AE / Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1/200 / Av( Aperture Value ) 4.0 / ISO Speed 100 / Lens EF17-40mm f/4L USM / Focal Length 17.0mm / BETTER VIEWED LARGE / BIG OBSIDIAN FLOW / / EAST LAKE, PAULINA PEAK / / FRAMED PRINT / / GREETING CARD /

A collection of rusted metal, nicely displayed against a fence at Silverton, New South Wales. Silverton is sometimes called a ‘ghost town’ because it only peaked as a community for about 10 years in the late 1800s, before the ore at Broken Hill was discovered and took over. It is not really a ghost town now – the community are trying to keep it alive with interesting art galleries and the like. When we were there, we noticed that the community had gone through their local rubbish tip and pulled out any object they thought of historical interest. Most of it is on display in the town somewhere. This was just one example.
