I like to light pages on fire & use watercolours in my journals.

four photos from new jersey
Yesterday I ventured to a place I had never before encountered.... New Jersey.
My lovely friend Heather Mae was playing a gig in Asbury Park and I decided to tag along. Overall, I don't have anything too terrible to say about the state... except that everything was closed at 6 on a Monday and I wandered through a boardwalk wasteland before finally stumbling upon a kind business owner who agreed to fry me some tofu and fries so I wouldn't starve.

two people staring
not at each other, but in the same direction."

animals with horns
Went to see Eugene Ionesco's Rhinoceros at BAM last night. Performed in French with English titles by Parisian theatre group Théâtre de la Ville. It was pretty amazing. I'm already a fan of French Avant-Garde Absurdism, and this was just another tick in the "love" column.
Although, I did realise pretty darn quickly that my French is not what it used to be, and I had to rely on the supertitles pretty heavily.
I loved the sparse set design, and the multi-functionality of all the set pieces. The sound design was also incredible... evoking the Rhinoceros without seeing them until very late in the production. The play closes tonight at BAM's Howard Gillman Opera House.

dear sugar
"withholding distorts reality. it makes the people who do the withholding ugly and small-hearted. it makes the people from whom things are withheld crazy and desperate and incapable of knowing what they actually feel."
I got my hands on the book of the Dear Sugar column from The Rumpus by Cheryl Strayed. I'm only a few letters in, but I love it. It's exactly the kind of thing humans need. The process of waking up can be slow, but it seems to me that this will help.

under bridges
Went to the DUMBO Arts Festival last night with the lovely Jason Simone for the final performance of "Codex Dynamic" an awesome 3-D visual extravaganza of digital art. Laying on the ground under the Manhattan Bridge Anchorage was a completely new experience for this Brooklynite, but totally awe-inspiring.
Obviously pictures cannot do it justice, but what kind of iphone using New Yorker would I be if I didn't take a thousand "artsy" shots??
