Reach Out and Touch Someone.
Touch is “our richest means of emotional expression” throughout life.
Click through and read this article from the Times. Stumbled on it at an incredibly appropriate time. It’s interesting.
“I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.”
E. B. White
I love this song so much. Definitely on my Life Sountrack.
Things I like Thursday.
This is so cute.
AND THIS IS SO GOOD! THANK YOU HARPER I LOVE YOU. (caps on purpose. because I’m screaming.) I wish I knew how to embed it. On my face.
Not Next Week…
I missed Carnival, but these ridiculously amazing photos make me feel a little better about it. I fucking love the Boston Globe’s Big Picture.
Click through for the beautiful, colorful mayhem.
Double Down Monday.
Valentine’s Day was a beautiful one. Love, pizza, poker, ice cream sundaes, and a clashing of two incredible groups of people. Thank you, Mia. More on her to come.
For now, some fun double exposures.
You make me feel like dancing. You know who you are.
I miss you, people that are warm right now.
St. George’s Play Yard
I’d walked by this play ground many times before. It’s always been interesting to me. Do kids actually play on this stuff? I thought metal structures had long since been replaced by colorful, plastic composite, no fun nonsense a decade ago. I imagine to go along with their old, metal, geometrically beguiling playground, they have a full time medical staff on the payroll.
Either way, I don’t know if I’ve ever seen this little alcove look so good. Another excerpt from Wednesday night’s moon walk.
Workin on Our Night Moves.
It didn’t stop snowing, and I didn’t finish cooking and eating my pan fried dumplings until 1 a.m.
With the city’s pretty, snowy, ball gown calling, I grabbed my camera and David’s tripod and went for a nice, long walk.
Up the block…
My e. 13th between 1&2. :)
…and around the corner.
A depiction of Snowpocalypse 2010.
No photoshops. Just levels, and camera fun.
More of it to come.
We Are What We Make. We Are What We Do.
LA Alert.
In cahoots with The Art Reserve and Studio Morke, Nicole Dungao and company made this from scratch. And this is something we can all be proud of.
Nicole has always had an immense curatorial talent, and For The Love of Haiti has to be the most exceptional ways to showcase it. She’s put together several big, bad shows in the past few years, and she just told me that this one if her favorite.
With work donated from artists such as Patrick Holeck, Salomon Huerta, Lisa Solberg, Samuel Bayer, Tony Duran, Roni Feldman, Mark Leibowitz, Gin Steven, and many others, For The Love of Haiti will prove to be a show that simultaneously packs a punch and lends a helping hand. All proceeds are being directed toward relief efforts in Haiti, via the vehicle of Doctors Without Borders, making it a laudable cause to get artistically and charitably behind.
Even if you don’t buy art, go. For one, there will be incredible people and beautiful things there, all with the intent of helping people who need it most. Secondly, Orgone, one of my favorite west coast bands will be playing. The only thing more fun and funkier than them, would be if Jesus Christ were to come back for his second encore of “Get on up.”
