I just finished reading Bret Easton Ellis’ first novel, “Less Than Zero”.
I’ve read three of his other novels– “American Psycho”, “Glamorama”, and “Lunar Park”. I did not like “Lunar Park” so much, but “American Psycho” and “Glamorama” were very good. They are absolutely insane and surreal. If you have experienced [...]
I’ve got to run and do school things, but I wanted to dash off this update before I left–
On Monday I put up a little show of photography and some illustration at the Santosha Yoga studio located in Madison. I debated whether to include my illustrations; I pondered over whether I should price “for [...]
One of my photographs is in the Seattle Times… that’s a milestone for me!
The article is “The Cabiri present ‘Daedalus Rising,’ an aerial dance”. Daedalus Rising is happening tonight at Cal Anderson park, and I’ll be there taking photos of the event. I’m excited to see what crazy theatrical stunts they bust out [...]
I was sifting through my photos tonight and found two version of the same house, the same view, taken almost exactly seven months apart. I really like that wall and its chimney.

I have this horrible suspicion that everything I feel really inspired to create has already been done, already exists out there, and I just don’t know about it yet.

I don’t think I’ve talked about my career change at all here, so I’ll start now.
I was laid off from Howard Hughes in December, since the immunology lab I was supporting uprooted itself and moved to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, and I did not want to move to NYC to follow. This ended [...]
Smoking!
O cigarettes! How I hate you for your mind-blowing addictiveness!
I am quitting now, for real this time, as a present to myself for my 30th year. I recently read David Sedaris’ “When You Are Engulfed In Flames,” where Sedaris talks about his decision to quit. He mentions hearing a non-native English speaker [...]
I’m taking time out of my busy morning study schedule (I bemoan the complexity of the female reproductive system… christ, how am I supposed to keep all those hormones straight?) to point out this cool photo by Hosang Park, currently for sale at 20×200.com.
I have the following questions about it:
What is up with the paths? [...]
