When I Grow Up from Fever Ray on Vimeo.

both looks/feels like what would have been caught in a childhood dreamcatcher, all the daytime fantasies spun into a smokey dream, something you want to hide and keep to yourself.

ok so the cheesesteak, or better known outside of philly as the “philly” cheesesteak, is probably one of the most intimidating samiches to ever try an order. i know, its steak and cheese on a hoagie, big deal.But in philidephia, here at Pat’s, its more or a rite of passage, a carefully selected bunch of words that to most sounds like an insult. first thing to consider is the cheese, im confused and cold, so i stuck with the classic with wiz, yes wiz. as in cheese wiz. philly loves it and i’m in no place to suggest a nice gruyère. then onto toppings. again keeping it classic i order onions, actually in my head i ordered onions here i said wit, as in with or without onions. so in total i think i may have just ended up saying, cheesesteak wiz wit?????? ok. now. eat.
then after consuming pats unassuming offering, and being plesently surprised as to how well cheese wiz stands up to steak and onions, consider the wattage of Genos. sunglasses optional. now i feel like i’m cheating.
standing, waiting, to be able to recant the same prayer i did at pats, theres alot to take in here at genos. my eyes are starting to hurt, bright lights, pictures of past patrons all smiles and giggles, cheese wiz faces. then its my turn to taste the forbidden fruit, and yes its good. better than pats, hmm, not sure, close. but i think back to back cheesesteak eating was probably a bad idea anyway.

u may have seen these before but its ok overexposure can be good

2008-05-08T01:23:00.000-07:00

iam not saying any of this should be considered good. i just need something to do right now and i feel like this is a good idea for right now. right now feels good.
these were all taken on the same day a couple of days after i got back from philidelphia. i usually iam a little off when i get back home and on this particular return i felt like nothing. not a good or bad nothing just complete nothingness. i think i liked it and i think it stuck for a bit. i went to get coffee and walked to the metro, and proceeded downtown. then i realized that i forgot my cell phone and had to scramble to remember numbers, hoping people would pick up pay phone call. all ended well and took these that night. i got home early too. i dont remember when i fell asleep tho? i can never do that early.

2008-05-08T00:58:00.000-07:00

lay down back ache. wait. pick it up, think, say it again now. start one more. its ok. tomorrow will be sunny, heat melts plastics. i like plastics. put it on again start it over again, say it one more time again again. devour. walk all over it. take over it. make it make it. turn it on again.

athens, georgia summer 2007. bored and testing my new camera and multiple exposures. i mean i guess.

2008-02-12T01:39:00.000-08:00

colonies, i need to make a better scan. little flags like that on a map in the forest i like to think that ants put them there so the others would know where to find them, like cities. i highly doubt this.
