I developed both my love for futures past, and my love of bourbon watching Bladerunner as a teen, a movie that was the gateway drug to the heavy duty Phillip K. Dick addiction that has shaped my interpretation of reality for the past 15 or so years. I discovered these images from a [...] It’s not everyday that I get to write a post that combines two of my favourite things – food and art. Michael Lewis Miller is taking part in the exhibition Ancestral Memory at the El Camino College Art Gallery, and one of the primary elements of his work for the show is a [...] Laurie Hassold’s sculptures combine an eerie organic quality with what I find to be an almost comical source of assemblage materials. Up close, there’s a ton of things going on in the construction of these pieces. My pictures barely do the quality and complexity of their construction justice, so this is in definite [...] I rarely come in contact with babies. I have almost no idea what one does with a baby, or how one keeps a baby alive until it can fend for itself. I tend to think babies should be born in incubators, raised in groups on isolated islands, where, through a Darwinian process, only [...] The above piece, Set a Course For Wayward Schemes, is currently on view at Bert Green Fine Art in Downtown LA. I thought that the bright colours of the piece went perfectly with the rainy day on which I viewed it. Here’s a closeup of one window, and a closer-up of another.

His [...] Just a couple of recommends for this weekend Saturday, February 23 John O’Brien, (re) Siting (chapter and verse) @ Kristi Engle Gallery. John’s last show contained a single brilliant piece – I just got the invite to this one, and it’s devoid of detail, but, knowing John, it should be wonderful. Reception is [...] Having a little trouble finding the time to post right now, so I’m keeping it brief. I think by next week I should have some kind of understanding of my new schedule, which would be good, as I have a backlog of things to post about and photos to edit… One of the [...] I live in constant mental anguish and pain due to the staggering lack of Waffle Houses in California. The nearest one I know of is in Tuscon, Arizona. On any road trip East, when I’m taking the 10 back, it’s my last “road” stop. The dividing line and symbol that the marks the [...] It’s been almost a year since I was in Thailand, and I’ve finally gotten around to making another pass at the 3000+ images I shot there. One of the things I’ve been meaning to post are images of what I call “Chopper Tractors.” Everything in Thailand seems to be hackable – although it has [...] |
