Gatherr RSS

Pronounced "Gatherer", but, hey, it's web 2.0 and we leave the last
"e" out right? Gatherr collects the best of this and that from here and
there on the web for no other reason than sharing. It's about stuff
that seemed interesting at the time. Enjoy.




ABOUT

My
name is Tony Johansen. I am an artist. I like art and science and
poetry and books and history and technology and lots more besides.
Every day I am excited by the marvelous things I see in this wonderful
world and beyond. I love the Internet for giving me access to so much.
I am like a sponge for wondrous things or things that make me wonder. This site is really just a
scrapbook. Being on the web, however, means being able to share the
treasures I find. That's me, Tony Johansen, artist who likes to share
my excitement of being alive.

    The Fantasy by Alan Bean. We were excited. We were going to have the ultimate adventure someone in our profession could experience. But while we (Pete Conrad and Alan Bean) did (land on the moon) Dick Gordon would be orbiting 60 miles above us. We often fantasized Dick joining us on the moon for all the fun, but we could never find a way. But now I am an artist and in my paintings I can have it my way. Now, at last, our best friend has come the last 60 miles (to join us).” - Alan Bean
