A Powerful Force Friday.

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 15:40:00 -0500

It’s official, and made evident by a myriad of examples now. It really only takes one person to change your life. I’ve only known Mia for a few months, and she has seen me through ups, downs, sides, slides, chutes, ladders, and countless other things that really matter. And at some point in between, I somehow became appropirately positioned to be there for her too. Somewhere I’m glad to be, with someone that I will know and love for a very long time.

Multi faceted, multi talented, visceral, intellectual, provocatively poised, and living a life of love, laughter, forward motion, and Rock n’ Roll, Mia Swier is undoubtedly a powerful force. She’s graced these pages several times. My favorite so far was the video she quickly put together called Make It. This is the kind of action that orbits Mia, and this is the kind of motion I try and surround myself with.

She’s a talented young film maker, the bassist and lead singer in a budding rock band, and a stalwart for her friends and family. Even in downtimes, she is the up for so many. Also, this page really doesn’t do justice to her film chops or her big love. If you want even better examples, let me know. We’ll see what we can do. The longer, juicier stuff isn’t online, but by God does it exist. The film and the love.

I’m just excited to be a part of this journey with her, myself, and everyone we know.

Mia, such good things since you’ve been in my life. You are love.

Gil Scott Heron inspired me last night like no one has in a long time. Simple, refined, or not, guttural, and one of the more soulful people I’ve ever been a room with. He’s got the flow. He’s got the energy. What an amazing night.

David showed me this a couple days ago. Amazing as well.

Art Fix: Juan Dolhare

Tue, 02 Mar 2010 18:30:00 -0500

I don’t know what I like more. Juan, or his art. I met the charming Argentinian outside of Ella on the Lower East Side. The one and only Anna Browne, a late great, addition to the ebb and flow of this inspiring New York tide, is producing his show. I’m absolutely enamored with both of them, and more on Anna to come, but first things first. Juan Dolhare’s paintings are striking.

From his concepts to his color schemes, Dolhare’s pieces resonate profoundly. “Variations on the Same Subject” opens Thursday, March 4th at 631 W 27th St, NYC, 6-8pm. I was lucky enough to stop in while they were installing for a sneak peak. I left buzzing.

Let me tell you, if you’re in New York, amidst all the art fairs happening this week, you must get to

Last Time it Snowed this Hard.

Fri, 26 Feb 2010 16:32:00 -0500

I took this photo.

I really like it. Maybe my favorite of the late night snow trip. This was the second time I’d walked down this block. For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to take the long way home. It usually is. Happy Friday.

Just a Little Pretty.

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.

What A Day.

It’s incredible how intensely the heart and mind can affect one’s physicality.

Beautiful Monday.

“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.”

I love this song so much. Definitely on my Life Sountrack.

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.
