Ryan McGinley & Tilda Swinton, who directs whom?

ryan mcginley films for pringle of scotland. is his style changing as production budgets change, or just time and evolution? either way i think it looks gorgeous; but i must admit, i am easily seduced by the colors. other credits include creative director neville wakefield, sound design by eric nagy, music by dogee mountain (interlude). the texture of the music is imperative to the full experience of these landscapes, even the clothes for that matter. but the recitations…meh. by kl

for old times sake

when we were kids we would get dressed up as kiss, and managed to organize 2 concerts for our bored neighbors and poor families. all outfits where home-made from pajamas, my sister’s tights, the guitars where cardboards glued over tennis rackets and so on. make up was a bit more advanced, with blood capsuls that never worked and silver shadows, of course back then we had no idea what a jerk gene simmons was or how ugly paul stanley really looked. but that was then before family jewels and reality TV stole our dreams. found objects courtesy of pp. by rh

hapinesss is a warm… pipe

above: our old neighborhood bicycle repair man with his pipe

cigarettes are just a bad habit, built for fast pleasure, pipes are a slow ritual
for those who can afford time… and hell they are just as bad


cleaning up is just part of the pleasureand you though pipe smokers were harmless!

in an effort to quit smoking… cigarettes… i have polished up my old beloved pipes, (boy am i going down the wrong path) half of my collection, which has been passed down from my dad. hopefully i am old enough now to pull it off… it aomehow didn’t look right back in the 80’s. by uh
