i've been delving in photo grad school cliches -

picking up video cameras.
fumbling through motion and sound sometimes.
neglecting anything that is still.

don't worry, the cats are okay.

rich - brockville - stone home.
thick ass walls - fireplace furnace.
refills on the hour - poker loans.

participatory actions, and high regards for those you love.

race cars and a bison and a crowd of people and mud.
and grass and trees. and shit overflowing from outhouses.

old tree - deep roots.

who knows and hand placements.

maca - dreaming big.

frozen cat trying to speak, attempting to entertain.
being a babe, a be-be. jumping on everything that is mine.
biting and bonding. being special.

cold.

still video.

audition tape - 0047.
for the role of - anonymous cat.

comments - lacking the raw emotion of the feline species.

first date - summer '09.

i get the impression that if you make a book, or zine, or portfolio, or any sort of hand held visual book-type-thing, that you are supposed to do this flip-through-exercise in the form of a video. i didn't want to miss out on such an opportunity.

ps. the sound is my washing machine.

a polaroid of unaccomplished attempt.
pretty standard these days.

I have some images curated into the new september show over at the the entopic group.

in the mail - still.

i took this assemblage in 2003 or something like that, 2nd year. back then i thought 35mm was the end all, the real shit. i used a nikon fm that i bought used from the camera shop downtown niagara falls. the 'i' in nikon was missing - so i had a N KON.

thanks austin -

sorry if it is getting a tad stale around these parts - i've been holding off on any new production, as i've been waiting on a new camera to arrive.

death to the square is frighteningly close.

the babies are having their first birthday party tonight.
they are paralyzed with anticipation.
