Scott Thomas’ project on Kickstarter that takes a look at the art behind the Obama campaign is chugging along pretty smoothly. Scott just posted some photos of the editing process which look pretty damn good.
Keep in mind however that Scott still needs to raise $65,000 before any of the books can be printed, so you can help out by pledging a certain amount and getting a copy of your own!

City Room has an excellent set of photographs of a 1:200 scale model of the former World Trade Center complex that was recently donated to The National September 11 Memorial & Museum. The scale model was a gift from the American Architectural Foundation which exhibited the model at The Skyscraper Museum in 2004.
I think this is pretty neat and it’ll be wonderful to be able to see such a grand miniature of the former WTC towers. But God only knows when the city will complete the museum and memorial. What is it now…nearly 8 years since the 9/11 attacks and downtown is still a big hole? That’s ridiculous…
