I’ve got a confession to make: I’m addicted to toy cameras. For the past few months, I’ve been spending most of my free time taking photos with my Diana Mini. Then a couple of weeks ago, Derek and I added a Fisheye 2 and a 35mm Holga to our collection. Yesterday, we got our first [...]
Derek and I have been exploring a lot of NYC while we’ve been getting settled in our new place. Two weeks ago, we checked out The High Line Park in Manhattan. The High Line is an old train track that sits 30 ft in the air. It was abandoned in the 1980′s. When it faced [...]
This past Saturday, Derek and I visited the Lomography Gallery Store in Manhattan for their Sample Sale. We arrived just before the store opened and there was already a line of maybe a dozen people. It was a good thing that we got there early because when they opened shop, the sales floor became a [...]
It’s been over a month since we moved to Brooklyn and we’re finally settled in. To keep ourselves from being cooped up in the apartment while we unpacked, we made it a habit to take small trips to parts of Brooklyn and Manhattan. The biggest thing I’ve noticed about being in New York is that [...]
Since getting to NYC, Kim and I have made it a habit to visit the Brooklyn Flea every weekend. After several visits of practicing restraint and will power, I finally dropped $5 on an old book. But not just any old book. This book was chock full ‘o Russian posters from the 20th century. Kim [...]
It’s not secret I’m a nerd for type. I can spend hours just wading through pools of typefaces and scouring for old ephemera just for one anomalous letter. As a result, I’ve been drawing type like a fiend for years. I really want to eventually put out one fully functioning typeface. But, until I develop [...]
The concept of apparitions has been around since the beginning of man, but there has never been a single physical example of proof they exist. Or what they are exactly. Even after all the high tech equipment is wheeled in, all that remains after extensive research is a bunch of half-understood data. There is no [...]
July has finally come and as we promised, Kim and I will start posting on a regular basis again. We’ve been residents of Brooklyn for a little over a week now and in order to maintain our sanity, we’ve done a few things other than unpack boxes. With this past weekend being the 4th of [...]
Hello everyone! I know it’s been a while since you have heard from us, but I have excellent news to share. After a lot of stress, crossed fingers and anxious moments, Derek and I have successfully found an apartment in Brooklyn. Yay! By the end of the upcoming week, we’ll be moved in. With Derek [...]
I just want to get a moment of your time before the weekend starts. It’s been more than a minute since we’ve heard from our buddy, Carl. As it turns out, he’s been busy launching a brand new site. Based around his illustration work and stand-up dogma, he’s created Creative By Birth. Even thought it’s [...]
