wasting, moving, and shifting
i just want more, but
something is missing.
how do you sleep when you're next to me?
the wind doesn't blow to carry your feet -
just passing the time,
love at the end of the line,
"you are going to be fine,
you are going to be just fine".

THE WATSON BROTHERS






















We met these little dudes at Euclid Records in New Orleans. They live right around the corner. They not only had warm spirits, but they were quite funny. Both of them had interest in taking photos with my camera, so I allowed them to during the show. Most of those shots came out great and glad that I didn't have to do the work for once, and they seriously took better photos that I would have. It was a pleasure meeting them and I hope they continue to grow into some radical beings.

BORED AT WORK/JUNE 2011
"This book contains the essence of Lewis Mumford's famous philosophy. ART AND TECHNICS traces the relationship, throughout history, between two conflicting impulses within man: the artistic, which is subjective, and the "technical", which is objective. Mr. Mumford analyzes perceptively the present state of this relationship, with its overemphasis on technics. Finally, he strongly urges a renewal of personal initiative. Mr. Mumford asserts that the present worship of machines and the exaltation of objectivity contribute to the depersonalization and emptiness of much of the twentieth-century life. He asks us to acknowledge the part of life which purpose and value, to admit to existence of man's inextinguishable spirit. ART AND TECHNICS is a passionate plea for man to make the most of his "splendid potentialities and promise." Mr. Mumford maintains that if each of us seeks within himself the seed of spiritual rebirth, we shall reverse the terrifying steps already taken toward world annihilation."

THIS IS NOT MY DIARY




see you soon. (MARTHA+ED)







new places = same bullshit
find home in your head
find love where ever bed you rest
find hope with the sunrise
find a dream with the stars
there's never enough
but you'll always get far
let each other be

2/50+ PIECES (earrings, necklaces, bracelets) of my jewelry line: NOHANA, 
They will be sold all across America on the:
NO BUMMER SUMMER AMERICAN C I G A R E T T E TOUR.
These specific pieces are made from the dried acrylic paints I scraped from the palettes of my students at the Montessori I worked at as an art teacher. I knew I wanted to use them somehow, but just couldn't figure it out, until it just came to me. They are sewn with thread to genuine leather and are paired with crystals, turquoise and/or red coral.

we challenge ourselves to become
but, to become is who we already are
reach out and touch yourself
your head, your wrist, your feet
there is a spirit/there is a soul
give it up
