Mini Movies







I am trying to get better at taking these little movies with my point and shoot camera. It is really hard. There are so many more things to worry about - timing, things entering the frame unexpectedly, sound...it is so hard to balance everything so it works. But fun! The sound is the thing that always frustrates me the most. I wish I could mess around with it a bit - like add in music or just take it out but whenever I do things like that with imovie I have to compress it and then the quality is really bad. It makes it more of a challenge to get it right the first time I suppose...

There are five million more over here if you are up for it!

Sometimes Things are Crazy









Hello.

I wanted to post but I guess I don't have too much to say. I can't even think of one lousy link. Strange. I am sure it will pass. So here are just a few moody photos for you to meditate on.

Okay - nightie night.

Gilbert & George






Gilbert & George have a huge exhibition on right now at the Brooklyn Museum. I really want to see it - maybe next weekend. After listening to thier interview, I realize just how seriously they take their role as artists. I respect their integrity and I am so glad that they are around and that they have committed their lives to speaking some sort of truth.

...Here is a very funny interview with them at the Brooklyn Museum...
...Here are a zillion images I found of their work online and uploaded to tumblr...
...And here is a good little archive at the White Cube...

Have a great weekend!

Hello!







Hi! Alright. Back up and running but no time for anything substantial I'm afraid. Just a Hello! I am also going away this weekend for Canadian Thanksgiving - so things won't really get off the ground until the middle of the week. Poor blog. I feel so bad neglecting it.

Anyway - hope everyone has a really nice beautiful October Fall weekend.
