Christina-Taylor Green, the little girl born on September 11, 2001, who died in Jared Lee Loughner’s January shooting in Tucson, is going to be honored with a 9’11” statue made from steel from the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

Sculptor Lei Hennessy-Owen (who seems to specialize in this sort of thing) will be turning the steel from the two sites into an angel statue that will live at James D. Kriegh Park in Oro Valley, Arizona—where Green played Little League baseball.

Douglas Rushkoff on Present Shock: When Everything Happens Now
The always-on, simultaneous society in which we have found ourselves has altered our relationship to culture, media, news, politics, economics, and power. We are living in a digital temporal landscape, but instead of exploiting its asynchronous biases, we are misguidedly attempting to extend the time-is-money agenda of the Industrial Age into the current era. The result is a disorienting and dehumanizing mess, where the ...
