TILLMANS

this past tuesday i returned to spin at TILLMANS. special shouts to Lil and Lautz for coming out! my boy Ant booked me for the gig and also showed me that i can review the set i played afterwards on serato, as I never plot my song list - and sometimes forget what i played. added bonus for you: you can see what I rocked, and go grab the tracks in your own time, if you'd like. so, here goes.

clouds. sunset. - with the phone

when i was working for nokia nseries - we did some cool stuff with phones related to art, like this : CANNES 2007

how we pitched the phones (aka 'multimedia computers') to artists was that they weren't replacements for your true equipment, but rather an option when you don't have it - because lets face it, we ALWAYS have our phone these days.

so, despite my owning and using my NIKON D80 (rather) (frequently), sometimes something occurs, and you want to -- NEED to capture it. this sunset was one of those times. so, i pulled out my nokia phone -- and played around with some of the camera settings - and these few shots were the result. not bad if i don't say so myself...

downtown LA

my friend Jaime took me to an area of Los Angeles i'd never been to.... downtown. she tells me that most people don't go to downtown. everyone goes to venice, hollywood...etc. she was nice enough to take me on a architectural tour. here are some photos i took with my point and shoot. (new nikon coolpix - not bad for $99, i must say)
