Currently sitting in front of my computer scanning piles of medium format negatives. Failed to realize when I got back into this crazy thing called film that it would be so painstaking… but oh so worth it when it works out.

At Year's End
After 87 posts on Tumblr, which has become my new favorite social site, I thought I’d actually post something that wasn’t a photo, video, quote or link.
The big thought for the day is my two year end columns, where I’m going to have to recap the best films and DVDs/Blu-rays. There are a lot of movies that come to mind, in no particular order, so the goal will be to keep it under...

Please mount my hot blue alien →
The San Francisco Chronicle outs ‘Avatar’ for what it really is “alien porn”.
Let’s just say it outright: This is a movie about alien porn. It’s about the great, timeless, hypererotic white man fantasy of the Other. Inhabiting it, having sex with it, becoming it, moving inside it, running and leaping and fighting and taking spectacular risks just before...

Rage Against the Machine Bests Simon Cowell's Pop... →
Had to pass this one on from Gawker. Was it really worth it, RATM? (courtesy of thedailywhat).
“Guerilla Radio,” indeed. Remember angry 90s WTO-protest mascots Rage Against the Machine? Well, they and their fans decided to take on British holiday radio playlists dominated The Pop Music-Industrial-Complex Machine. And they won, pissing off Simon Cowell in the process.”
