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 pipecigarettes 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 pleasure and 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 is new, and the other half has been passed down from my dad. hopefully i am old enough now to pull it off… it somehow didn’t look right back in the 80’s. by uh

terry’s diary: terry richardson’s blog is finally up

olivier zahn and terry richardson, hah ha!

better late than never. terry’s blog is finally up and worth a bookmark. this will give olivier a run for his money, after all, with terry around, it seems like everyone thinks they can take pictures too. granted when you are olivier and have the right people around (as in backstage at chanel) it’s kinda’ hard to miss.

but for all that’s said about terry i have to say what is amazing about his work is not the photograph itself, its the situation and the energy he fabricates with such mastery with everyone and anyone, and that’s what is not easy to copy. otherwise yashikas are a dime-a-dozen. check out terry’s diary here. by bh

not for the faint-hearted: werner herzog opens film school

best of friends: werner herzog and klaus kinski

our hero has opened a film school to help exorcise the demons of hollywood syndrome. werner herzog’s rogue film school is now open. all you dreamers can now quit your miserable jobs and dive in, head-first, into the abyss. few rules apply:

“the rogue film school will be in the form of weekend seminars held by werner herzog in person at varying locations and at infrequent intervals.

the rogue film school will not teach anything technical related to film-making. for this purpose, please enroll at your local film school.

censorship will be enforced. there will be no talk of shamans, of yoga classes, nutritional values, herbal teas, discovering your boundaries, and inner growth.”

the first class for the rogue film school will take place on the corner of amazon river, and pirannha pond. best of luck. by kl
