Michael B. Platt

05 November - 31 December 2010

Opening Reception:
Friday, Nov. 5, 2010 5:30 - 9:00 pm

With a performance by Carol A. Beane


Images holding the essences of memory;

biding time, waiting, celebrating...

barely discernible stories of who was here and

what happened there;

visions of imagined spaces-layering time

within abandoned, unoccupied and frequently

dilapidated interior rooms and exteriors;

there is always something.

 - Carol A. Beane


For the past five years Michael Platt's imagery has centered on the transformation of the human spirit that occurs when it confronts imagined or actual events and circumstances.   Using the female figure, he creates images intended to express traces of the human spirit, often inspired by spaces with a history and the presence of things left behind. Empty spaces are as much storytellers as those filled with living.  Exploring the visual possibilities of such circumstances, Platt has addressed issues of slavery, the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the levees, waiting, searching for home; and celebration.

Beane which have yielded artists' books + broadsides.   Recipient of the 2007 Franz and Virginia Bader Foundation Grant, Platt's work is nationally and internationally exhibited and collected.  It is in the permanent collections of, among others, the Smithsonian American Art Museum; the Corcoran; the Yale University Art Museum; Hampton University Museum, the David C. Driskell Center for Visual Arts and Culture of African America and the African Diaspora; the New York Public Library's Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture; and the Print/Photograph Collection as well as the Rare Books and Special Collections of the Library of Congress.  Platt teaches digital photography and digital printmaking studio at Howard University.

How to Find an Ethernet Adapter's MAC Address

Workaround:

Follow these instructions to find your adapter's Media Access Control address (MAC address), the unique identifier of a computer device.  The MAC address appears as a twelve digit alphanumeric string separated by colons.

  5. Close the command prompt window.

 

Windows 2000, 2003, XP, NT

  1. Click Start > Run.
  2. In the Run text box, type cmd and hit enter. A command prompt window should appear.
  3. At the command prompt, type ipconfig /all.
  4. Copy down the "Physical Address" from the "Ethernet adapter Wireless Network Connection" section.
  5. Close the command prompt window.

 

Windows 95, 98 and earlier

  1. From the Apple Menu at top left of the desktop, select System Preferences > Network.
  2. Select Show: Built-in Ethernet in the pull down menu.
  3. Click Ethernet.
  4. Your adapter's MAC address is the characters in Ethernet ID.

If this does not work, please refer to the instruction manuals available from your particular operating system's website.
