I opened an email account that I only check every few days and found an email from Gideon Lowenstein! So wonderful. I will not post it here as it doesn't seem proper to post someone's mail to me, but I will post my response.
Hi!!!!
I only just checked this email address and am so happy to find your email.
I became a bit shy after calling you out of the blue.
The email that I check several times a day is ecaigan@zapgarden.com
You googled (or binged) me?
Fun!
This is how this all began...

You may have already found it?
Here is some information about my brother Peter

An interview I did with the artist Carolee Schneemann will be in the forthcoming catalog for the Samuel Dorsky Museum at SUNY New Paltz. One of the topics is social sculpture and I often think of this in terms of architecture. Once it is formally published may I send it to you?
May I ask a couple of questions?
Did you ever build the chair that is also a carrying a case?
I am very curious about this.
Did you and Dad go to Harvard together?
Thank you for emailing.
Best wishes,
Emily
I wonder if he will check this blog?
Mr. Loewenstein, if you read this it would be wonderful if you would comment. If that is not what you feel comfortable doing then please do let me know at my email address and I will make our correspondence private. Knowing you is more important than this project! I am of course presuming that you are reading this.
This is the beginning of an adventure. Somewhere between play, curiosity, possibility, outrage and a daughter's thought of 'what if?' Last night MyLife.com popped up and asked me if I would like to reconnect with Robert Caigan. It said that I can send him an email. My father died in 1978. Let's see what happens next...
