I remember this.
I can’t believe it’s been so long since I’ve posted anything here, let alone an original anything. Life got the better of me, what with exams and the general December blues. But January is just around the corner, which means February is on its way too, and March and April etc, so it’s practically spring already. I could do with some heat.

20 Things I Learned About Browsers and the Web →
Ignore the boring title and click this link. It is easily one of the most beautiful and most endearing sites I’ve encountered in a while. It’s just what a book would look like, if it the internet were all books.

Visual Research as a Collaborative and Participatory Practice
University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada
Traditionally, visual research has been framed as a representational practice, different from, but equally valid to other representational practices (scientific, literary, etc). The 2011 International Visual Sociology Association Conference provides an opportunity to explore what it...

I’m committing to one Vimeo video a day. Any more, and I’d drown in a sea of self-pity. Any less, and I’d forget all the incredible things a person can make.

This post feels so familiar, it’s like I could have written it, from the NM love, to the Montreal vs Vancouver vibe. I miss that city’s spirit so much. coco-dreams:

Keeping it Legal
Today I’m spending my morning drawing up legal forms — model and copyright release forms — for some tentatively upcoming shoots. You’d think law school would help with you this kind of thing, but it doesn’t really. All it gives you a false sense of familiarity with some of the verbiage; it doesn’t make you feel any more prepared for the unexpected that...

terenzever (on flickr): my home made studio →
I wanted to shoot portraits (glamour/fashion) as soon I got interested in photography… I only rely on natural lighting and I don’t have any studio lights not even a strobe (flash) I always use all those things as an excuse for me not to take portraits…
When I see an outstanding portrait… I always tell my self that it’s only because of the awesome studio lighting, expensive camera equipment, kick...

Toronto Concerts →
The easiest calendar of concerts I’ve ever seen. This thing is fantastic.
In another lifetime, I’d think about putting together the Vancouver version. Someone else want to get on that?

Hold the sun, I'm on my way
I need to go on a city walkabout ASAP. The sunsets begin to feel less and less like the fading of days and more and more like the dying of seasons. There’s that — the increasing remove of the light, replaced with clouds that seep up coatsleeves — and there’s also the realisation that I’ve written nothing and done no urban shoots since I got back here, going on 2...

Discorder » Dead Prez:
“And finally they were here. After years of troubles at the border, on Sept. 27, Dead Prez performed their first Vancouver show to a sold out crowd at Fortune Sound Club. In keeping with their support for indigenous sovereignty in the U.S., Stic.man and M-1 opened their show by acknowledging the unceded Coast Salish territories on which Vancouver lies. Then they...

Hello, you.
Been awol, haven’t I. Sorry about that — moved cities, still living semi-unfurnished, have a terrible course load, am trying to figure out how to be less broke … and have already photographed two concerts (Flying Lotus, then Dead Prez!) in the 3 weeks I’ve been in Vancouver.
Busy times, no doubt. Expect pictures soon. Also, I’m better at updates (specifically around...
