Photos: This Place...

Last week I had the pleasure of photographing the rehearsal of Jazz's upcoming solo performance, This Place. This Place explores the dynamics and impact of those who surround mental illness- the secrecy, regret, trauma, helplessness, legacy.

This performance will premiere Saturday evening, September 27th at DanceSpot in Silver Lake's Studio A Dance. Tickets can be reserved at
StudioADance.com. Hope to see you there!

Burning Man 2008: The Last Camp

From Danger Ranger:















"After the street signs disappeared on burn night, the owner of this camp was unable to find his way home. He left the playa 2 days later. A week after that, the cleanup crew packed up his tent & his bike & his wallet & his car & his camera- along with a flash card containing 807 photos. "

Music: Daft Punk - Something About Us (Theremin Jam)




I experienced my first theremin last May at the Bay Area Maker Faire at which time I thought it was a pretty cool instrument.  After seeing this Daft Punk cover I've upgraded 'pretty cool' to 'bad ass'....DP can give anything street cred!
