My heart makes a beat and my knees skip the beat........! Download the full resolution image, enlarge it within the browser window or in photoshop HERE...and stare at it... What would those rings sound like as an LP, what would it be like to float in Saturn's atmosphere, underneath the shadows of those rings. Land your ship on an icy ring and spin round Saturn for one hell of a galactic revolution.... I stare at Saturn and the world's alright with me..... Like my son Raphaël says: "Papa, I don't ever want to die".... Raphaël, this is as close as living forever as we'll ever get....!

Since this blog, as of late, has become particularly moribund, I might as well post bill paying work... which isn't that much of an issue.... but since I had promised myself not to post commercial work way back when I began, what some dare call an adventure....I might have..... But at this point my resolve has waned with time and the economy, my soul has wandered off in search of pheromones and my interest in keeping this electronic parchment entertaining and uselessly informational has fallen to an all time low..... which is by no means meant to demean the work below. I actually enjoy working on these projects. I love my crew, my clients and the roof over my head... without further "adooes"... What I really do for a livin'.... it's a charmed life when you can get it...! (That one was for Samsung)... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Enamel photography-"DUG UP!"/ The funerary Arts...1984 continued!

Russell Kaye kindly inquired if I could post the age old recipe for printing photographs on enamel... I am probably right in assuming that he might wish to decorate his future sarcophagus with archival images of rainbows, clown cars, chimps and vaginas, as I already have done with me very own intergalactic ion rocket mausoleum.... shaped not unlike a Corsican Village Banana Cheese Grater™.... and large enough to house my deceased and heretofore multitudinously estranged family dynasty...... but.....I digress... So, without further ados, you may follow this hyperlink and have a look-see, HERE unt HERETOOFORE ... tutaloo mutha fuckaaaaaas....

College Work-1984.....

in , , ,

My son Raphael and his brother Gabriel went back to their yankee grandmother's home in Virginia and found old college work of mine somewhere in the basement......Raphael shoveled snow from a christmas winter storm and gave my ex-brother in law the cash to ship a box full of 25 year old work back to me, which I just received. Back in 84,' I was, as I am still, extremely fond of any kind of natural history displays and one of the first thing I do whenever I fly into a new city is seek out their natural history museum... I remember calling the a biologist or zoologist at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City who cordially invited to come down and peruse their collection both back stage and in the Museum's galleries without as much as checking my credentials (whatever a 19 year old might have had at the time).

At the time I thought that photographing dioramas as well as storage units in the museum's research facilities was a swell and brilliant idea, not realizing that Hiroshi Sugimoto had beaten me to the punch..... Intelligence I gathered, a few months later while visiting a camera store (whose name escapes me at the moment) in mid-town Manhattan, by gazing disappointedly at a beautifully printed large print of an ostrich and it's chicks, hanging over the counter.... A diorama I had also photographed a few months back at the Museum.....

These Polaroids were used as reference shots to guide me in my selection of future large format black and whites.... To be continued...I have to pick someone downtown.college

Had not seen a good Ad on TV for " a Very LoNg" time... Ryan McGinley did the 2d ad campaign which like most of his work fell flat and lifeless, despise being the darling of New York's trended youth....Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of Rod's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to Rod—this is your spiritual act of lorship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what Rod's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will...... but Cary Fukunaga did a renewing job... First Television ad in years which captured my attention....pioneers oh pioneers go forth towards Cary and ignore the Ginley(Mc).... go HEere for the video fit not on this site to please me eyes.... of course there is always Michel Gondry's classique HErE
