KEY OF A

Pinfinger / Middletown, Ct / July 10, 2016

So Invalids actually came into town. I was so surprised they would play an art studio space. Because of this project I was able to create LST LVS. Learning some of the language in TabIt and also learning how to use VST type programs I was able to compose a lot of music during these months. It's been awesome. I have a long way to go.

Anyway,
Pinfinger was the first act on this show. They were pretty interesting and I don't usually like listening to spacey type of music. This was done right I felt. You should check out their work when you get the chance.

LOMO INSTANT

So this is the camera I'll be using for the remainder of the year and through 2017. It wasn't super expensive (I bought it used) and with the research I've done it's not hard to use.... well.. for a few it may deem a bit of a challenge. Couple of the features that I was intrigued by was the apertures that it comes with (f8, f11, f16, f22, and f32? what??!?!). This is totally up my alley as I'm very keen on controlling light. It has a multi exposure mode, a bulb exposure mode, and a regular shutter mode. It came with some lenses that I could use, but I found that the lens already attached to it works well for me. It's light and gives me some pretty interesting results.

Later next year I'm looking to do a little more experimental shoots with it. I want to see what would happen if I use any kind of flash units with different colored gels attached to it. I think this would enable me to do portraits with interesting lighting compositions. I'm pretty excited about it.

READY / GO!!

Sign Language / Lowell, Ma / September 6, 2015

For awhile I was inspired by Kate Sweeney who had a spurt of diptychs she was posting. They were quite interesting and I loved how she created these weird relationships together. This one was sort of influenced by it. I never had the chance to post it, but yeah... here you go!
