About My Photography
|
Well. . . .
A busted camera, a book about this guy that took photos of naked cheerleaders (before they killed him by forcing him to OD on cocaine -- the sinister cheerleaders n question were nicknamed "The Sugar Sisters". . . get it?), and a desire to try to make the things I imagine have some shape in the real world (while not being able to draw or paint at all). . . .
That's what made me the camera-sleaze you see today.
That about sums it up.
FTW. |

About Me: not much to say, really. . . . i'm a lackluster photographer, a mediocre writer, a motorcycle straddler that's managed to not fall off yet, a carouser, a dilettante, bearded, bespectacled. . . . if that sounds alright by you. . . maybe we'll get along fabulously and you'll let me pass out on your couch sometime when i roll through your town. |
|
Body Alterations: a couple tattoos. . . . i'll post photos sometime soon. . . . trust me, though, they're nothing special. . . just the accumulated results of bad ideas and devotion. |
|
Favorite Bands: hmmmm. . . . i have no cool guy musical credibility. . . . i'll just list some stuff til i feel satisfied. . . . neutral milk hotel, the cramps, orange goblin, scissorfight, the cranes, felt, atmosphere, aesop rock, peaches, crowbar, pere ubu, mission of burma, deadboys, roger miret and the disasters, agnostic front, portishead, art brut, motherfucking patrick swayze when he sang "she's like the wind", le tigre, hank williams III, superjoint ritual, the velvet underground, man man, frog eyes, JANDEK, et al. . . .
i reckon it doesn't take much listing to satisfy me. |
|
Favorite Movies: if you asked my particular demographic to list movies they liked, i'd probably enjoy a lot of the ones on that list. |
|
Favorite Books/Authors: kurt vonnegut. . . . whatever else i happen to find myself reading. i'll also say henry miller. . . oscar wilde. . . oh. . . and nabokov. . . . those are some safe, safe answers. . . and it makes me look all kinds of well read. it'll distract you from the fact that i'm reading those charlaine harris "southern vampire" books like a reformed reader of romance novels. . . . |
|
Likes: using my camera to make pictures. . . doing things that i know are bad. . . riding around on my ancient triumph motorcycle. . . petting my dogs. . . discovering new music. . . putting words together. |
|
|
|
Pays The Bills: i provide customer service for a company that almost all of you have brought stuff from. . . .
or maybe i should say, ". . .a company from which you have all purchased something."
that's right. . . put that grammar to work! |

| with few exceptions, i don’t think i’ll be around for awhile. . . . |

there's a lot of shit to say that's not even really worth repeating, but what i CAN say (without embellishing, i think) is that i'm still somewhere near the bottom of the bell curve of happiness right about now. i made a commitment to see something through to the end and now i feel like i'm paying the price for trying to finally be a good person (after having fucked up numerous times before). most relationships i have with the people around me are falling apart. there are some of you out there that have stuck around and it's appreciated. . . but. . . generally. . . yeah. . . fuck. . . . i'm disappointed in almost every aspect of my photography. anyway. . . . i've said all this before and it's not even worth going into any of it now. long story short. . . . don't be surprised if i don't answer your call/messages/e-mails. it's nothing personal, but i think i need to just fuck off by myself for awhile. take care of yoruselves. if you really need me, i'm around. . . but it's not too often that someone really needs anything. people want things, find themselves confused, and things are never what they seem to be.  |
