Profile: Chuck Reynolds

Your personal background.
I lived in Chicago for almost 50 years, retired in 1998 from 20 years full time faculty, department of photography, Columbia College, Chicago.

I was principal bassoon in the Northwest Indiana Symphony Orchestra from 1976 to 1984. I hate using \\"was\\" but at 71 there is a lot of \\"was\\".

I have had the privilege of having the glass plates of William Henry Jackson and Eugene Atget in my hands while I was part of a project reviving the Albumen Printing Process in the mid seventies (Chicago Albumen Works).

I have exhibited as a printmaker (stone lithography), a painter and photographer (large format 14 x 17 specifically, built the equipment myself).

I was the sole caregiver for my wife as she died of bladder cancer (an 8 year process) and the experience of losing her has fair stopped my clock.

However I continue onwards living in rural Indiana.

I would love to activate my time/matter displacer (its broken) in order to be on a transoceanic Zeppelin flight ... no not the final trip of the Hindenburg.

Your opinions about Einstein@Home
I like the illusion of touching the cosmic vastness in the sense of a line the poet Stefan George wrote: \\"I Feel The Breath Of Other Planets Blowing\\".
