I had a dream about you.


You dug up a key and entered my house.
You ventured upstairs directly to my bedroom.
My heart begun to convulse, the shock was unbearable.
Your were filled with dismay.
It all went black

You must have carried me to the hospital
You must have waited for me to return
My eyes opened, a combination of monotonous tones.
You kissed my forehead.
I returned.

Never let me go back.

Colonel's Row





Viewing one of these performances would be so fascinating, it would take alot for it to leave your system. Perhaps i enjoy it due to Implied Violences 'manifesto': "Implied Violence makes plays that are not plays. We make theatre that may or may not be theatre. We generate pieces that are not rooted in an internal logic or a rigid structure that audiences may or may not understand. However, our work does not beg to be understood. We don't care to be understood, to understand is to lie."

Its disappointing that i cant get my hands on a full version of the performances,i would love to view them all as intended. The bystanders in this clip are so interesting to watch, so emotionless, even in the most violent part of the scene. I desperately want to witness one of these acts, and will try to do so when i travel.

Photos and Performances by C. Ryder Cooley and Implied Violence, respectively. Performed in old houses in Colonel's Row on Governor's Island as part of the New Island Festival. Thanks to Sucka Pants and Tom Seelie.

The Rooster and the Sun


The sun is always there i can depend on it,

Can't see the sun at night but i know its there


The sun keeps me warm and keeps me alive.

Why cant the sun stop the man from killing my daughter?

Why cant the sun end my brothers hunger?


But im thankful for all the sun has given me.

Clean.

Today i cleaned up itunes. I fixed up all the album artwork too and discovered a few keepers:

Caribou - 'The milk of human kindness'


According to limewire, this is Deerhunter's 'Microcastle'
I think its pretty regardless of accuracy.
Please inform me if you know who it is.



Animal Collective 'Merriweather Post Pavilion'
Just cause it moves so prettily to 'My Girls'

Tuesday, September 8

I have my hands full.

a private confessional kept within arms length.


Made out of latex gloves (that im now apparently allergic to!), cotton material that I put though my typewriter, and cotton for stitching.
The photos don't do them justice, the regrets are more visible in person.

Sharday's trip







I played around with Sharday's photo's from her Europe trip, wanted them to appear like photographs created by a Diana or Holga.... I love how they turned out.

Brett Nelson...


...makes me want to run away to the woods.
dont draw me with the devils hand
cover me shake and shout
shake me til the dirt falls out
i went down down down
i saw the things that made the lights turn on
that shut the power off
it took me away
i never gave it a name
the colors wont stay
theyre low down dirty
take me away
dont leave me lonely
i carried on
i tore it down
i caved in on leavin this town
dont bury me
dont leave me lonely
take it or leave it
give me back to jesus.

lets all run away with Brett Nelson

Please?

A Love Afair with Holga

Catherine's Holgarized series take you to another place, a dream, a fantasy, satisfying you the way waffles and ice-cream do! I love the saturation, blur and accident within her work.


You could say I'm having a love affair with Nekorine's Love Affair with Holga. So honoured to have been a part of it, looking forward to seeing more Catherine.
