I have written about Os Gemeos before. They are a Brazilian duo that does street art. When I say duo, I mean twin brothers. Os Gemeos actually means “the twins” in Portuguese. There is a very distinct look to the art that they do. They use a lot of bright yellows and reds. I first … Continue reading Internacionale: Os Gemeos→
I was in the park last night, doing what I like to do (playing with cameras). On the way out, I decided: “Since I’m here with my gear, why not grab a slow-shutter shot of the GW?” So, I grabbed the image below. For extra fun, check out the full resolution version here.
(Photo: David Koppe) For me the jury is still out, on whether I like Hot Chip. They kind of remind me of a modern version of XTC, or something. One thing standing in the way, is that their name reminds me of Hot Action Cop. I realize, that is my problem, not theirs, but still. … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #72 (HC)→

Friday evening: I’ll be attending/shooting the “Love and Guts” art show in SoHo. It is a tribute exhibit … Continue reading This weekend could not have started any sooner.→
(above: self portrait) I have been so freaking busy this week. It has seriously been the longest “short week,” ever. I haven’t had time to write anything interesting, or even think anything interesting. I have shot some really good stuff this week, though. It has also been really nice to have such an uptick in … Continue reading Watching oil spill→

Nothing new or novel here. I’m sure that everyone has heard this song at least 1000 times. But, hey– it is summer. “Doin Time” is such a classic mellow warm-weather song. I couldn’t think of anything more fitting for tonight. Press play. [Phot0: Not sure who to credit. But I like it]
