Antarctica

There is such a thing as a United States Antarctic Program. It's part of the National Science Foundation's Office of Polar Programs. The USAP has awarded sculptor David Ruth an "artists and writers" grant to study ice textures and forms at Palmer Station, Antarctica, from November 16 through December 23, 2006. David is keeping a log of his days way down south. Jurisdynamics and BioLaw recommend this visual record of the Antarctic, before global climate change erases its grandeur.
