:: DIY Access
it seems that if one is interested in making good pictures, there may be a natural trajectory in at least attempting to create access that normally wouldn't be there. (And by access, I mean conversationally, even. Try talking with your subject.)... Michael David Murphy on street photography, from an essay in which my work is mentioned. (thank you!)

:: Up With Grups
During the dot-com boom, businesses not only allowed people to come to work in clothes they might usually wear to clean out the attic but encouraged this as a celebration of youthful vivacity and an upheaval of the fusty corporate order. Suits were thought to be the provenance of, well, suits. The dot-com bubble burst, but the aesthetic remained, as part of the ongoing rock star-ification of America. Three-day stubble and shredded jeans are the now-familiar symbols of the most desirable kind of affluence and freedom. So why would anyone dress up anymore?

That would be an impossible, ridiculous, and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down." -- Bill Bennet, former GOP Education Secretary

be fucking horrified. absolutely nothing can sublimate the evil in this statement. no following sentence. no context. no "statistic." -- don't be naive; this is an example of de-humanization, which is an integral component of genocide.
