Photographs everywhere! Zeitgeist photographer Ryan McGinley has dropped his first book available at index magazine. Check out some of his snaps here. The one’s of the band mum are great. I went to the Walker’s One Planet Under a Groove, a loose collection of contemporary art inspired by Hip Hop’s back catalog. The highlight of …

Ouch. Late night at Kinko’s. Mad printing fury of brochures and materials went late into the night. Thank god for Kinkos and their 24 hour policy. And god bless Ben, the Kinkos helper for taking time out between tracks of his “new” Gorillaz CD to help me negotiate some tricky maneuvers on their Macintosh. And …
Fair day was a blast. It really takes almost a whole day to do the fair proper. And it will probably take a full day of biking to work off the Buckets o’ French Fries and other greasy assorted edibles that were consumed at every turn. My favorite thing at the fair was Lillian. Lillian …
After a hefty morning of playing my melodica, drinking coffee, listening to live jtb and playing the new tony hawk on my mac, it’s off to the fair to gawk at barnyard animals, strolling humans and the wonderful hazy line that distinguishes the two. Jackass the movie trailer.
Readers of these narrow pages and the comrades who watch me devour huge plates of greasy fries at local midnight eateries are well aware of my excessive use of the condiment known as Heinz Ketchup. If there were a help group for abusers of this tempting tomato treat, I’m sure that there would have been …
Fitzcarraldo. Klaus Kinski and Werner Herzog’s masterpiece of a movie. Makes all other movies seem like kindergarten. Werner’s directors commentary on the DVD is the most articulate I have heard on this medium yet. He talks about the hardships of making the movie, the border war that broke out between Peru and Ecuador, the natives …
It feels so good to have my site back. I don’t even know where to begin. How about my typography class? Well it’s beyond incredible. It’s taught by Bill Moran a third generation letterpress printer and graphic designer. We work with only old lead types and wood alphabets on huge old iron equipment that makes …
oh hey. My site is back online… Wow. I am overjoyed. I think I may have broken some record for sites being down. Denver. Long story short – my old host, although being free, had no idea how to administer their server and had no reason to fix it when it went down. Afrojet was …
A little more redesign here. I wanted to give afrojet that faded out look – something like the Star Tribune newspaper that’s been sitting on my patio since early March. It’s all dusty and hazy. I also wanted to inject some blue and get rid of the underline in the links which was getting uglier …
Just missed the rain this morning. I thought I was goner for sure. Last night I spent some time trying to digitize some old 45’s on the powerbook to very mixed results. I really need to find a way to efficiently digitize some of my old records. So far my setup is sub-par and an …
