FOUND FOTOS

found these adventures hiding in a long forgotten folder.

BAYBEESH

nolan and sophia are second cousins once removed, they are two weeks apart, they are 1/8 of the same two people who made their parents, parents. 

i tried to explain this to them but they couldn't quite follow what i was trying to say.

I MISS MY PEOPLE, BM07

nothing beats being kissed by a drunken sailor wearing vintage polyester in the middle of the nevada desert. that's enrique, the one kissing my head, he's a lawyer in salt lake city (?) but on vacation he runs a champagne and karaoke bar.  harry and dominique having the time of their lives.  bun on a swing.

when its so cold outside, i really miss these people. when i'm bored at work, i think about this place. and sometimes out of nowhere, my nose will remember the smell of playa dust and somehow, my mouth will remember the taste of  playa dust.  

then, simultaneously, i will miss myself and everyone else. 

 

i think they miss themselves too.

in fact, i know it.

RANDOM THOUGHTS, DEC 08

 i said to this person "close your eyes, you look so beautiful when you close your eyes" which is something i imagine ugly lovers say to one another. in other imagination news, i imagine the creepy bunny with pink tears scares the kid from upstairs every time he follows mom to do laundry. i can just imagine him recalling the creepy bunny when he's older, much like i recall creepy pictures of clowns. regards... i hope these random lovelies brighten your smile sans bleotch. 

blee-otches.

CHARLIE BARKER, DEC 08

we went for a little roadtrip to red deer to pick up a dog. as with all family pets, i get to name them, because well.. i'm the name queen,  you can ask anybody.

 this little tuckers name was "rusty" but that seemed a little "heavy metal" for a toy poodle. so i asked god, and he said: "and his name was CHARLIE". 

the last name is actually my mothers maiden name which makes for a hilarious fucking dog name. i said it was awesome because it could be shortened to "charlie b." like maybe, he might have more street cred while still remaining cute. somewhat like that pretty popular boy in jr. high school when he started dealing pot. sigh. 

FAVOURITE YOUNG LOVERS, DEC 08

love is lovely

like diamond dazzled

 cigarette dispensers

CREEPY BUNNIES, DEC 08

check the light leaks shining above the bunnies in the bottom picture. 

its like god is shining a light on these kids chairs while saying: 

"check this awesome shit out! fuck, earth rules hard."

CHINOOK-A-NOOK, DEC 08

the cold coming

the cold going

nothing compares to a high pressure wind. 

not the ocean, not the moon, not even your stupid face.

WHACKOS, NOV 08

as it is plain to see, the moment people start touchin their heads, and coverin their faces, you know they're wasted, the party only goes up-hill. with favoured phrases of the evening, whittled down into a select list of such lyrical gems as "cheap meat" and "anal obsession" and pronouncing the silent J in "fajita". all of this seems so hilarious.  lisa had to leave early so she could be well rested for a sunday of applying make-up to "jerome enigma's" abs.  what a bunch of whackos.

GHOST DOGS, NOV 08

check out these hooligans waitin' at the olympia liquor. 

you just know they can't wait for their owner to return so they can go home and watch reruns of battlestar gallactica.

cute sweaters fellas!

PUDDLE OF PERSONS, NOV 08

found on the ground of a hay bale house.

typical.

SHIT MATTERS, NOV 04

  

this is a big candy ball that i made in halifax, it was supposed to disintegrate, but people started licking it, and then it was smashed. whenever i wonder what the hell i have done with my life since high school, i just look at pictures and its like, whoa... i made shit,

 and shit matters.

STAGE SWIMMERS, NOV 08

stage swimmer at rest

note swimmer,  stage right.

ghost cats at play.

what the hell is with stage swimmers? laying and rollin all around as the band plays.. like, what the...? 

GET OFF THE STAGE !! 

we know your own band sucks, but palease, just let us enjoy this band without your face gettin all in our bizniss. 

SKATEPARK, NOV 08

straight from the book of bokonon, this was a post-sushi adventure that ended up with bruised knees and a renewed appreciation for the coolly unconcerned lost boys of millenium park. the nonchalance of the night and their willingness to let whatever photographs i wanted to take, be taken. there was no posing or awkwardness because i think, skateboarders are always just doing and moving and falling and getting back up again. like, nobody even cares... nobody is even watching.

this is probably my favourite grouping of photographs in a long time. skateboarding photographers are always lookin' for the moves... the landing of the crazy trick... documenting  the goods. and uhh, i caught none of that. and i didn't even want too. to be fucking vague, i just wanted something that said something about the kind of night it was. 

BRIGHT FLASHES, DANGER

these people would just like to say...

"you can rock on... HARD!"

BAD HABITS

suddenly we were running through the co-op parking lot feeling like we were going to throw-up.

we drew some crummy doodles, ate some expensive chocolate, took bad pictures and psychoanalysed each other to degrees far beyond necessity

HALLOWEEN OTHER, OCT 08

dead shriners, eric and ryan sadler.

HIGH RIVER, OCT/NOV 08

GEISHAS, OCT 08

note the pursed lips.

ta-da!

geisha babies rocked the premiere halloween event. posin', and posturing, and actin' all japanesey... these ladies knew how to please the crowd of best friends and creepy awkward strangers. that's what i call talent!
