SF Bicycle Festival

Shame on me. When I think of niche film festivals, I imagine entries normally rejected for lack of content, admitted for the ability to find the niche theme laced in it’s unwatchability. Shame on me. I need to go to more film festivals. At least return to San Francisco’s Bicycle Film Festival next year. Our [...]

Say Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee….

I take pride and joy in every moment captured on the tiny 10 megapixel CMOS chip on the back of my digital camera. There is thrill in stealing 1/60 of a second from time that can sum up an entire day, or a wealth of feelings on a face. Ali and I tried stealing a [...]

Onpoint (my student film)

I get a dash of pride, and cup of cringe in viewing this. I assume most of us do when looking at one’s early work in any artistic endeavour. The phrase, “if I only knew then, what I know now” comes to mind often.

What Doing Nothing Consists of

My first week(end) of work has come to an end. It’s turned out to be mind boggling boring. When Ali would ask, “What did you do today”, I couldn’t really answer. I’ve decided to document what it means to do nothing in a computer lab. 7:30am – ignore work procedure and only open and start [...]

Puppets and Hip Hop and Sextets

It’s a match made in heaven from the depths of segue hell. Ali and I made it over to, what the residents call the “Ghost House” in Fruitville last night. These New York natives hosted a night consisting of a barbershop sextet, a hip hop act, a folk singer and… puppets. Chadwick Lombardi started thing’s [...]

Pidgin Fight

Hilo, Hawaii It’s damp, it’s dirty, it’s moldy. We stayed 1 day at Uncle Billy’s Hotel, one of the most expensive depressing motels i’ve ever stayed in. The carpeted canter-levered balcony/hallways sagged dangerously in it’s sogginess. Our sliding screen door fell off with every sliding attempt. Obviously, we should have asked for a non-smoking room.
