doesn’t this look like the sounds album?

1. enjoy the $1 pitchers at sweet ups at 2 PM
2. laugh at drunken matt sleep on the concrete at 5 PM
3. sesame bagels!
4. lead passed-out derek to bed;
5. sneak out of awkward music debate with the former’s roommate;
6. relocate to bushwick;
7. eat a mouthwatering lamb burger from anytime
8. buy an unnecessary 40oz
9. laugh at alcohol-induced hiccups

Result: eric’s glorious beefy chest.

I have started reviewing and working on some photographs from unfinished projects, one series in particular that is now tentatively known as Paterfamilias, previously known as Domestic Affairs. I had posted another photo in the summer of 2007 entitled “The Clandestine” if you can recall. This photograph is a continuation of the theme.

Law Fall Bash 2008 happened just on Thursday.

press photo for geoff that I took in April(?).

obscure music aficionado geoff hawryluk is releasing the long-anticipated Eau, a far more accessible fortysomething-minute EP of orchestral pop arrangements in comparison to his other endeavors, including this year’s Radio Myanmar (Burma) by Sublime Frequencies. Eau is available for purchase in mp3 or cd form here.

He is also starting a mp3 blog featuring music from cassette tapes he has collected from abroad. The first tracks available for download so far boasts Burmese ethnic rock, Thai radio broadcasts, and Toraja bamboo music from Indonesia.

Lastly, I’ve been cleaning up the coding on this thing. I have some work to post soon.

i am back to my old habits perhaps? staying up much later than i can afford, eyes glued to the flickering screen in the dead of night. In this state, I am relentless.

I have never done a very dark photograph before. We will have to see though if it looks any good in the morning seeing that I whipped this one up as I was myself surrounded in darkness. Also, I believe I shall be doing more in the next while though I do not imagine any of it will be very good. I’ve lost my touch that is…if I even had any to lose in the first place. Stay tuned, perhaps, those of you who sometimes drop by.

(I am planning to clean up the code on this thing…the many, many problems bother me. kgan.net has changed somewhat.)

D. I know.

M. I can’t live in this new world.

never really worked on the múm photos. here is one of Hildur Guðnadóttir, one of the neu-few joining the icelandic band’s roster.
