Shit so interesting it hurts
- PhotoLink: masahisa fukase --another example of fine art that requires the viewer to take part, rather than just being visually overpowered.

- Photolink: i think i may have linked to this before, but who cares, it's worth a second or third or 100th look.
- Link: I walked out of the theater crying, I had no shame in showing people that I was affected by this movie. I was distraught, wrecked, ruined, and I didn’t care who knew.

- damn near every photo on this guys site kicks total ass.
- --"One should really use the camera as though tomorrow you'd be stricken blind. To live a visual life is an enormous undertaking, practically unattainable. I have only touched it, just touched it."
- Fred Durst Blogs? shit. 255 comments on every freakin post!
- --you know i love spiders, but thus nude freaks me out.
- --"I am still struck by the power of photography to strip away the bark of the mind and reveal the visceral workings underneath"
- I look at these photos for the colors, honestly.
- i have started smoking cigarettes because it is the only way to stop the onset of sneezing fits from second-hand smoke. Somehow, if I am killing myself on purpose, it is more acceptable to my body than letting someone else hurt my lungs.
- Best use of the word cunt this week
new policy
i've been driving myself insane with this camera. trying to force what would just flow if i wasn't all caught up in the process.
it's not good.
today, i inacted an almost unthinkable policy of weeding as i go. deleting forever the images that at that moment pollute the days collection. i've always held that i wanted to keep everything, because context changes and meaning changes, and maybe blurry isnt what i wanted now, but i might look back in a year and see it differently.
not anymore. now. i have to focus on what i want, clearly. and weeding out images helps me better asses where i am for a given day.
i thought i was having a miserable day for photos then weeded and slideshowed what i have, and it isn't going to get me a book deal or an exhibition, but it's not bad either. so, new policy in place.
there you go.
