Well, good on Tara Donovan for her MacArthur Fellowship . Unfortunately, this does nothing to make the MacArthur Fellowships any less of the snooze-fest that they’ve been for the past I-don’t-know-how-long. I mean, they’re very, very good at picking people whom you would never begrudge their “genius grants,” but whom nevertheless leave one thinking, “really? them?” Maybe people were ...

Four new pieces magically appear overnight.

Much to my surprise, my order from West Coast Imaging came in yesterday and not on Monday, as I’d expected. Untitled (Glories) These came out maybe a smidge blurry, but I’m on the whole very happy with them. Untitled (Tampa Bay, November 1948) These are sort of stunning. These were printed on the Fuji Crystal Archive Pearl paper, so the whole image has a bit of a metallic ...

Doot doot doot

Ooh. So my photo order has shipped. So that’ll be Tampa Bay , Florida , the Beheading of St. Barbara , and Glories done. Ehr, hopefully. I don’t have any experience with digital photo printing aside from having it done at Shoppers. I don’t really see what could go wrong, though. My only concerns are that the St. Barbara prints might get somehow keyed up (though the service I ...

Sickness Mockups

Untitled (Bilirubin) Look! I successfully modeled something in SketchUp! Rather, I successfully modeled objects in SketchUp: I somewhat routinely make models from gallery floorplans to go with calls for entry to which I never actually submit proposals. I didn’t really need CAD models of these things–they’re just 18″×18″×12″ Plexiglas vitrines on simple tables–but whatever. They’ll be ...

Couldn’t Park that Fucking Car, Couldn’t Part from You

Couldn’t Park that Fucking Car, Couldn’t Part from You I’m not entirely sure where I’m going with this particular thing, if anywhere. It’s just a loop I made with some online guitar-chord thing, the main guitar part of my favorite song of all time (see below). The file above has a bit of an arc to it; it’s the same length as the original song, get’s louder at the point where a crucial bit...

Vagrants, Urchins, and Onanists

I’ve been transferring my stuff from old studio to new at a fairly leisurely pace, since the weekend. I’ll likely finish up today. I guess it’s kind of a pain, but really? New digs are quite large, well lit (see below), and, though I need to get rid of the random hoo-hah like, uh, other people’s bicycles (I’m not really sure of the back story on that one), and shit needs a mopping the likes ...
