Night Creatures





Study is just sooo lame compared to the many wonders of the internet. Though i am majoring in Media, so surfing the internet could possibly count as research hehe...

It's late i should sleep. But i'm a night creature.

P.S thanks frailheart.

A Vision of Students Today



Watched this in my media lecture the other day. A video made by some Anthropology students in Kansas on media in students lives today.

I think it speaks for itself.

Chuck Close




This guy has to be one of my favourite painters. He is a part of the Super/Hyper/Photo Realist movement of the 1960/70's in NY. He uses only two table spoons of black oil paint to create these MASSIVE scale images drawn from photographs.

He explores the difference between the eye and the camera. Some of his most recent paintings include Kate Moss and Brad Pitt. In his earlier works he uses his friends as subjects.

Now paralyzed he still continues to paint these amazing works...

Twiggy vs Edie




Twiggy or Edie?? Who could pick?
In these to photos they look so similar! It's amazing.

Check out the movie Factory Girl if you love Edie Sedgwick or if you want to know more about her and Andy Warhol's life and relationship. Highly Recommend it!

Just came across this guy buy chance on the internet. He focuses mainly on landscapes and nature. Love the effect of his work being 'unworldly'. All the monochrome works, like this one seem to have this airy feel to them. He takes almost mundane everyday scenes and places them in new contexts that open up many opportunities for the viewer both spatially and mentally.

love it

P.S. I Love You


If you hadn't noticed i'm too good on the whole spelling and grammar deal, but you know what fuck you, and fuck your grammar!

Watched P.s i love you , "aw that's soo old!" yeah i know ok. well anyway i thought it was the ultimate chick flick and i loved it and will probably never watch it again. But i'll admit i cried.

Awesome opportunity for some good photos today, nice overcast, but as fate would have it i forgot my camera. So i never took this photo, but wish i did. It's actually from the 1985 issue of National Geographic photographed by Steve McCurry. Her name is Sharbat Gula, nick named 'Afghan Girl', an Afghan orphan in a refugee camp. It is said to be "the most recognized photograph" in the magazines history.

It's just a beautiful image really and even better when you know the context, like anything really.

"She remembers the moment. The photographer took her picture. She remembers her anger. The man was a stranger. She had never been photographed before. Until they met again 17 years later, she had not been photographed since."
