Are we having fun yet?

So far the New Year has brought change, but not necessarily of the pleasant sort. And change is always stressful.

Which is why, for your viewing pleasure, I bring you a little something to make you appreciate life. Girl Walk // All Day is a full length, music video of a film charting three dancers encountering New York City.


Girl Walk // All Day: Chapter 2 from Girl Walk // All Day on Vimeo.

Released in clips, there are 11 available on the website with the 12th and final clip coming today. I’m having fun now.

Catching Up

I’ve been away a long time now. On vacation, seeing family and old friends, but not, as it happens seeing much art. I’m catching up on my google reader now and coming across all kinds of good things though:

  • I would like my holiday decorations to somehow channel this.
  • An always funny literary agent blog. Writers, take note of what not to do.
  • Theory: great male artists have more sex.
  • My [awesome] [wonderful] donation-based yoga studio, Yoga To the People, is being sued by Bikram for teaching hot yoga. This is ridiculous. Sign the petition.
  • More gorgeous, luminescent Chinese illustrations like the one above.

And, now, tis the holiday season and New York remains an almost balmy 55 degrees and sunny. Pandora is set on the Christmas station, I’ve already done all my holiday shopping, and now if I can just catch up on my reading, art viewing, blogging, and writing, I’ll be all set until the New Year.

“So close”
From my walk to work this morning, a lost half-mannequin on the street. Does anyone else want to play the “what is she thinking game”?
“I wonder if this is how Venus d’Milo got started.”
Well, my mother was right. She always said Steve had an obsession with that chain saw. And it was just one limb after another.”
