if I could ever reproduce what I see when my eyes are closed...wow. I don't even know how to finish that sentence.
Yes, scanning blows. But developing on your own isn't too great either. especially the rolling film onto the tank spool part. uggggh I fucking hate that.

the best i ever heard was someone called the office yesterday and asked for frygel. FRY-GEL! WHAT???? anyway, when are you coming to visit? summer??? lets go to the beach and take pictures!!
oh yay! when you come to la, fractal, evette, sean and i will help you master the art of sitting in a room with four people all staring at their computers in silence and only communicating via ichat for hours at a time. it will be grand indeed!
I just baked muffins. Espresso and cinnamon oatmeal muffins to be precise. Dairy free too. They are delicious. I really enjoy baking. I mean, it is one of my favourite things to do. It cheers me right up and helps me feel like I actually did something. I suppose it's the almost instant feeling of accomplishment as the fruit of the labour is ready so... Read More
I suppose I update a lot when it feels like I want to be reaching out to the world.
I finished reading The Difference Engine by William Gibson and Bruce Sterling yesterday. It's a masterpiece and I'm not exaggerating. The whole essence of that alternate history captured my very being. And to think of all the research involved and the ingenuity of using real historic... Read More

I sent you a package yesterday! It has a couple of things in it we promised to send you. xx
I am also deeply obsessed with history and art of the Industrial Revolution. Especially, how it started in Britain. I studied it many moons ago, and something recently brought it back up and I remember meaning to study it in more depth. I'm trying to soak up all I can.
Yeah, you're used to the cold after the Yukon! There are some amazing opportunities for photos in Calgary, too. Yes, let's, sometime... something. Though I am not the most thoughtful photographer. It is not so much about creating as capturing for me.
The set I shot for Yuki way back in June 2005 is about to go live. Yes, you heard me right, two and a half years ago. It's black and white and I am really really proud of it. Still. It was the most fun set to shoot at the entire Villa escapade. And it is also the one that most sums up our time... Read More
