Tamsinjane

I am an Australian Research Student (in Geography: mainly virtual places and spaces) from Sydney. This year, I am writing my thesis on online collaborative communities and citizenship, and wikipedia is my case study.

Thank you to the many, many people who volunteers to be interview subjects for my research. The thesis will be ready at the end of October, when I will post it on the site.

Cheers,

tamsin

Picture of the day Virgin and Child with Four Angels is a small oil painting on panel by the Early Netherlandish artist Gerard David, probably completed around 1510 to 1515. It shows the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child, while two angels crown her as Queen of Heaven and two others play musical instruments at her sides. Set in a walled garden before a view of Bruges, the work was created for private devotion. It was influenced by Jan van Eyck's Virgin and Child at a Fountain, but presents Mary and Jesus in a more human manner rather than as remote iconic deities. The work has been in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York since 1977.Painting credit: Gerard David
