Framing

For me the word Framing means to look at something from all angles.  Once you have done that you are able to set a standard or framework to go by. Sometimes life, nature, or some will say divine intervention will get in the way and you will have to re-frame your process. The key to this is being open to the possibilities of change at all times. Peter Bogdanovich tells us that he had no real college training, that he had went to his own college. In order for him to be successful with this method he had to lay the framework at the very beginning and stick to it the entire way.  An old Swedish Proverb

"Fear less hope more,
eat less chew more,
wine less breath more,
talk less say more,
love more and all good things will be yours."

This proverb is a lot like a framework for live. He also leaves us with a story from Jimmy Stewart and a quote that inspires me. "Give people little tiny pieces of time that they will never forget." 
After watching the TED talk with Sugata Mitra I felt as though anything is possible.  The soul purpose for this man is to help the lives of others.  He is doing this with computers and with kids who have never seen a computer before and the out come is amazing. (Sometimes I wish I could pick up on things as fast as those kids.)
The High Rise interactive piece might be one of the coolest things on the web.  Not only is the artist able to capture images that captivate us but she is also able to engage us in the lives of others who live in these places.
