First I'm going to talk a little bit about my desk at school. I mainly use it for storage, but the drawer is jammed full of my biggest vice, fresh Fuji film (in multiple formats)!
Its so beautiful! I think it looks like I'm getting a photo MFA rather than a design one. Photos are part of the design process right?!
Here's a cellphone "creature" that I built for my Design Experiments class. Its a commentary piece about what happens when we change the context of something by creating accessories for it. In this instance, what happens when the cellphone becomes an autonomous, walking entity? I outfitted the iPhone case with a switch, so when you drop the phone in, it activates a motor and zips away. Its a basic prototype and would like to have the cellphone control all of the functions of the creature in the future.
Played scratch offs for the first time here in NYC! It was really fun, but probably not a sustainable investment.
Ok, so this picture isn't that recent (there are leaves on the tree still), but I walk this way to the 6 Train almost every morning. I love the way the light is cast on the street as it slices through the openings of the buildings. Also, do people still drink 7up?
This shot is one of my favorites that I've taken here. The focus and distribution of the leaves gives the composition a dynamic and fleeting feel.
People throw out the strangest stuff in the Flatiron District near our studio.
I've been running around 3-4 times per week and there used to be a lot of purple glitter on the path.
Also snapped this while running. Living amongst such massive structures makes you feel very small. You also have to look up a lot.
This elementary school and playground is just down the street from our studio.
When you exit the subway from here...
This is what you will see.
Went on a nice walk in Prospect Heights with my buddy Liam last month. This is one of the last images that I shot with Minni, my beloved, but now broken Minolta Hi-Matic E.
I love this part of Brooklyn. Its spread out and the park/botanical gardens are close by.
Also been eating at my fair share of diners. This one is in Court Sq. Queens near MoMA PS1. My friend Zena and I stopped in here after checking out the Cyprien Gaillard show (which had Desniansky Raion, a beautiful piece that was at the Carnegie a couple years ago). Zena and I kept asking the waiter which pie was his favorite, and every time he responded by saying "Fresh." We finally got the answer we were looking for and chowed down on a slice of Oreo-vanilla.
