About

This is the personal website of Mark Phillipson, and I welcome you to it. I’m a romanticist, a teacher, an experimenter, and something of a librarian. To give you an idea of how any of that fits together, here are a few surfacings of my work:

Clayfox.com has been appearing in some fashion on the web since, what, 1998. It was a blog in the late ’90s, for just a short time, until I shrugged off. In 2005 I moved again towards bloglandia, though the site is still a repository for my teaching and a fair collection of digital photos. It is also the only authoritative source of Kapaga rules. I insist on that.

In May 2006 I joined Columbia University’s Center for New Media Teaching and Learning. My better half, Scott Tebbetts, has been charming, challenging, and redeeming me for over 14 years now.

  1. Mark! It figures that when I’m googling Mt Abora, I end up on one of your students’ pages…
    I was in your Berkeley Ashes, Sparks, and Hypertext seminar and am still slogging away at school-type things at the University of Chicago (though I hope to finish soon, I’m really… not going to). but anyway, thanks again for a fun class and a reminder of those long-past days… I’m glad to see you’re still deep in it…

  2. Any chance your partner is from Hollis, NH originally? If so, tell him I said hello and would love to hear from him.

  3. I recently visited the site of the the source of the Clayfox name. Was happy to see that it hadnt changed a bit. Away from a fresh coat of paint. Happy to say thats also true of the immediate surroundings as well. Tornado exactly the same. Drop me a line big guy. It’ll be warm outside soon (I hope).

  4. Hey Mark,

    On the eve of your birthday I wanted to say hi and wish you the greatest of days tomorrow. Hope you feel celebrated and that you enjoy your day. Take care of yourself!

    Great website!

    Stuart (no longer your next-door neighbor!)

  5. Help! I’m trying to read the family portion your site without luck. Trying to see if your connection to Golodzier dovetails with mine.
