California Nostalgia

by

These vids, vj together in interesting ways. Perhaps bigger than the sum of their spider parts. Finally getting around to dealing with old footage to send off to Victoria as I promised her months ago. To be fair, I told her it would probably not be till we were done with the end of Zipperhead and tomorrow is the last show. YOU SHOULD COME if you haven’t already.

Hey Kerry Ann (Screen Test)

by


Up on Judy’s roof the ladies were talking about food. Some people you know, you always think: “They should be on Camera.” Kerry Ann is one of those people. Fortunately the camera seems to love her.

Noble Rot

by

The other day I shared a couple of glasses of Chateau d’Yquem with a friend. Keith Richard’s band name “The Expensive Winos” kept coming to mind. It was a funny week that rolled from that beautiful Sauternes to jug wine from plastic cups and cheap beer. It made me laugh and be glad of life, etc. I’m King of the world….buddy can you spare a dime?

Spilled Dog

by


The other day I made this substitute dog to keep me company in the studio. It’s made out of a saw horse and a sand bag and wine soaked crate from out in front of the Lorimer Street liquor store and a stuffed squirrel dog toy tail. Bailey would have been 15 yesterday, if she was still with us. I made a quick drawing of her licking her paws on her last day and I’ve been working over it off and on ever since…. It’s wine soaked as well. Something about death is like a broken bottle spilling out all the good stuff and you are left with nothing buy shattered glass, or ashes.

Frost Bite That Chicken

by

Here is the updates from Friday’s Frost Space time lapses mixed with a Mingus song by way of Dylan’s old satellite radio show. Eat that chicken yes! Also some motion graphics made by a student of Golan Levin. The Eater is eating all sorts of heads I made over the years that they got off Flickr. I find this one thematically appropriate to the the first course of Frost Street… Food from the fridge… or whatever it is: Revenge Served Cold? Also a dead white pigeon I saw under the BQE on the way to the studio. Looked like an angel, or a Nationalist Seal….

Lat Friday I was hanging out with Ben and he threw me a pad of rice paper and started noodling on the guitar. I recorded him with the tiny mic on my still camera and eventually put it in the I Want More video. We also spent some time laughing at You Tube viral trash like the THX lemur below. We talked about scale on the internet (as I’ve been trying to make these longer documentary experiments) and wondered if these multiauthored motion jokes weren’t in some way great art. This one is like that uh huh moment of satori writ in cross species EYE get it face recognition. Anyway, it made us laugh.

More Songs About Movies

Here are some Collabs from Brian Raszka and The Library Project. He’s taken up my animated gif obsession and when you stack them up like this it really becomes sort of cinematc. This trio is all obsessed with Foreign and American film: Particularly the word play on French New Wave stars Goddard and Truffaut… Which is sort of like God is True or Faux (meaning “fake” in French)?. Brian’s animated finishes come right at a time where Sonja is trying to engage the group in a larger animated story. More on that idea as it happens.
