a tourist in the keys got killed by a gigantic stingray. she’s just hanging out her vacation, drinking a margarita in her dad’s boat, and a gigantic stingray jumps out of the water, knocks her down and kills her. what’s that about? she wasn’t even in the water, wasn’t even stung by the ray. that’s such an embarrassing freak accident to be a part of, very “final destination,” ya know? a stingray jumped out of the water, into the boat (!?!!) and she got in the freaking way. the thing was 75 pounds, and just knocked the lady down. rest in peace, tourist.

The screening was a great success and the film is still one of my favorite recent independent releases.
If you would like to screen this movie in your town or at your school please feel free to get in touch with me. I am currently working for Fountainhead in NYC and we put together screenings all over the world on a regular basis! ! ! ! !
Also, if you would like to order a DVD, they are for sale online
for $12! You can also find a lot of really dope BIKE merchandise.
The soundtrack is excellent and you might recognize some of your current favorite people on it! Cheers to MATT AND KIM!!! HOLLLAAAAAAAAAA!
despite the shady CGI, this movie looks kind of rockin’. i hope this is too epic to miss, and deserves to be seen in a theater. i’m also hoping that maybe it doesn’t suck, and the reviews are just busy lying to me… but who knows, those things are usually hit or miss. i’m willing to give it shot, so if you’re in new york next week and you’d like to be part of this movie-going extravaganza, let me know. it may just be “apocalypto, part two,” but you gotta admit the cinematography in that was rad.
Paul Klee (December 18, 1879 – June 29, 1940) was a Swiss painter of German nationality. He was influenced by many different art styles in his work, including expressionism, cubism, and surrealism. He and his friend Wassily Kandinsky were also famous for teaching at the Bauhaus school of art and architecture.
In Pedagogical Sketchbook (1925), one of his several important essays on art theory, Klee tried to define and analyze the primary visual elements and the ways in which they could be applied. In 1931 he began teaching at Dusseldorf Academy, but he was dismissed by the Nazis, who termed his work “degenerate.” In 1933, Klee went to Switzerland. There he came down with the crippling collagen disease scleroderma, which forced him to develop a simpler style and eventually killed him. The late works, characterized by heavy black lines, are often reflections on death and war, but his last painting, Still Life (1940; Felix Klee collection, Bern), is a serene summation of his life’s concerns as a creator.
If you were under a rock tonight and missed the season finale of Project Runway,CHRISTIAN WON! I SOOOOOOOOOOoooooo called that shit. Everything in his show was black and fierce and over the top. and victoria beckham wants a piece. hooray! xo
so i’ve been living in ATL for about 5 weeks and its been fucking crazy. I’ve learned a lot of things, met a lot of good people and had a chance to enjoy some really great new music. but alas, i am moving to NY this wkend. my time has been cut short. but it was like a lot of awesomeness crammed into one sweet time.
One of my favorite acts from ATL is none other than JUDI CHICAGO !!! got to see them Feb 29th at LENNY’s
and coincidentally found out they were from GA and were connected on other levels as well….. smallllllll world.
OTL (me +katie) planned a HEART+SOUL show with them last fall in Savannah but it didn’t work out because our beloved Hang Fire Bar was revamping the place and cancelling all shows until they figured out what they were gonna do (city noise complaints etc) …
all things aside, it was a great show and it was really nice to see them again!!! they went all out as usual.
Other things I’ve found:
lucky pennies
greyhound stations/ thrift stores
ads for movies that i’m interested in.
do they have commercials for this? i heard it was awesome. have you seen it?
and lastly,
people still living in ‘92.
Dear atlanta, thank you for all of your love and support. i will miss you.
last year i went to savannah for patty’s day. my friends and i were approached by jesus-whisperers with fake money that’s supposed to teach you a lesson about sin, god, and greed. we had a nice conversation for a while, then it got really awkward when they got forceful with “the word of our lord” and whatnot. we ended up walking away right after i snapped the last shot on my fisheye. oddly enough, this is what came out. i haven’t retouched or added anything at all.
i’m about to get crackin’ on my midterm studying, then i’m headed up to new york for the break of spring. in the meantime, i hope these adorable characters keep you smiling. i think the first photo is the best couples portrait i’ve ever taken. hah. these people are so awesome i almost can’t stand it.
i’ve been so busy ‘hanging out,’ it’s been hard to wrap my brain around anything else. i like to put my life in bullet points, i’m interested in that. so here goes.
in this span of time i have:
- watched a horrible movie (smiley face (sorry airzla, i hated it)), followed by an awesome movie (310 to yuma was my JAM, for real. go rent it RIGHT now.) here’s the trailer, it’s awesome. i’m kinda sorry it was’t nominated for more oscarseseses.
- taken more set photos, and i’m about to start working on some crazy hurricane movie where they blow up a house, and flip over cars and whatnot. i’m pretty excited about it. apparently, i’ve gotta get some shots of people drinking monster, inc. energy drink too. they gave a bunch of money in exchange for photos of “real people drinking a real drink.” what’s that about? energy drinks are sooo 2004. maybe i’ll get the set kids to blow up an energy drink along with the houses and cars, get it in flight or whatever, heading toward my face. mmmm. that’s the money shot.
- made my second pasta sauce in the history of my personal sauce making career. it was brilliant. tasted like my grandma’s sauce, a little bit like home with a candice flair. molly said it was better than her mom’s, i blushed, and decided to freeze half for future eating. come to t-town, and maybe i’ll let you try it.
- watched some of the oscars, kind of. that guy from the frames, and his lady friend won for best song. i love that. they made a film with 2 handycams in 3 weeks for less than 100 grand, and win an oscar for best song. they were humble about it too, and.. well, after the song below, i’ve always had a soft spot for the frames. give it a hear:
it’s acoustic-man-awesomeness. add marketa irglova, and they won an oscar for this song. i’m not super crazy about it, but it’s damn good. thank god enchanted didn’t win. i’m over that movie.
- i printed my first 60 inch photographs. it takes forever, and i had to stitch 15 photos together to get the resolution right. so they’s panoramas, and pretty damn seamless. i’m ok with them. word!
- i recently played a sweet game of b-ball. seriously awesome.
- i’m about to graduate and move to new york-ish city so i can get work in the arts. i’ve been job searching, networking, getting serious about being serious, i gotta do what i gotta do. so, if you know a photographer in new york that is awesome and would like my assistance, or a digital lab that needs a friend, a production company that wants a hand with picture taking for sets.. let me know. basically, anything involving art, cameras, or computers. preferably, all of those things. hook it up, and i’ll make you a candice’s grandma’s pasta sauce that’s better than molly’s mom’s sauce, and if the job is awesome, i might even throw in some cookies. (oh, and if you wanna build my portfolio website for free, i’m into it. if it’s awesome, i’ll make you a sketti sauce with dollars in it.) and if you know someone that needs a couple of happy nyc roomies in september, or wants to buy all my stuff in tallahassee, let me know.
- i went to the driving range and knocked a few balls out of the park. seriously, they went so far i think i hit them to the beach. yep, i still got it. wanna hit up the back nine? hmm..?
- got a ticket to go to new york for spring break. fallon, i’m coming your way. who’s with me? i’ll be hopping on my first greyhound to atlanta, then i’ll be hitting up a free ride in the cab of a u-haul. woot!
- TCBY. this place is where it’s at for a delicious 96% fat-free treat. then, stace said go for it, so i did. strange.
- went to a stage play thing, rabbit hole by david lindsay-abaire. it’s my roomie’s directorial debut, and it’s wonderful. go check it out at the annex. i was unbiasedly impressed, and you will be too. she’s been MIA for months just trying to take care of this thing, and it really shows. it’s awsome. i saw the dress rehearsal with the ‘ladies,’ and it opens tonight at 8!
- ange and i sucked ear-wax from our ears with some candles. i don’t know how i feel about it. maybe it worked, maybe it didnt. it was fun though. i hear there have been some serious problems with them.. freaky.
- phone reunion 2k7. i’ve been hating my phone lately, but i think i might be getting back in the groove.
- ive been to work, school, written some papers, kept it real, and i’ve drawn a portrait of a naked woman that looks like john lennon for my life drawing portfolio. maybe i’ll scan some of those someday. they’re kinda rad.
- i’m getting taken on a sweet date to see this movie sometime very soon-ish. it looks good now, and i’m sure after i’m wined and dined, it’ll look even better.
My friends are in the latest issue of OUT magazine!!!!!!
