Read Moreopen letter to the world
broke in nyc, winter; so cliché we belong on broadway. plus there’s a great sickness descending. (click on post title for more…)
Read Moregolden rice
materials: plasticized rice, lacquer, acrylics, sealant (click through post title for painting) digital cameras are down and polaroids are expensive, so just trust me that this one is far more compelling in the real world. three layers of rice, while hard to paint, make for some nice textures. specifically envisioned for and given to rachel [...]
Read Morethe lp mainframe
records i listened to today: 1. palo santo – “shearwater” (expanded edition) ambient, semi-orchestral, NPR sanctioned rock. good for mornings and evenings (and moments of quietly sad, wine-drenched, triumph). 2. the national – “boxer” made almost everyones top ten list this year and deserved it. their last album, “alligator” deserved it too. 3. stray cats [...]

Read MoreA bit [byte] wasted
I’m sorry I write “okay” instead of “ok”. It all adds up in thie crazy world. Love may be a four letter world but it takes two — “I” and “you” — more to make it all work out. But just cause I’m drunk and writting this all down in my moleskin “cahiers” doesn’t mean [...]
Read MoreA drunken run-on sentence
He looked down the tunnel for the light of the train while the music of existential rhymes pumped though the headphones and he saw the wink of the things to come in the darkness. Anticipation came with another track and so the drumbeat became a heartbeat of excitement frantically written in permanent marker on blank [...]
