Two with a twist

Article Abstract:

2wist Photo offers its clients a combination of photography and digital enhancement. The company, operated by Suzette Troche and Ken Pivak, was begun in 1998. Pivak is a photographer and Troche a digital artist, but they say creating innovative images that target messages to specific audiences requires teamwork. The process of making an image called 'Orbital Matrix' is described. The image was used in an ad campaign for Neutrogena's cosmetic line.

Preaching to the converted

Article Abstract:

Carnegie's new book 'Preventing Deadly Conflict' is vague and moralistic, and doomed to collect dust on other foundations' shelves. A result of lavish commission hearings in 9 nations chaired by David A. Hamburg and Cyrus R. Vance, it typifies other feckless, politically irrelevant Carnegie grantee efforts.
