pinhole camera

another project i want to do sometime (soon?) — maybe it’ll have to wait til sol is 11 and is into doing it with, but if not, there’s details from make zine on a full-size and a juicebox one also. juicebox baby! i love makezine cuz they have so many cool ideas, including obvious stuff like getting old jabra earbuds to make your earphones more comfy and sound better, and how to make an animated cartoon in 10 minutes with a whiteboard and webcam.

the bicyclist

looking forward to this: The Bicyclist

description from the site (where you can subscribe to episodes):

The Bicyclist is a new web tv series shot in one of the centers of bike culture Portland, Oregon. A wind blown and rain soaked comedy from the hipster streets of counter culture. Seen through the eyes of Conrad Miller, a transplant to Portland from Middleton, Wisconsin.

electoralism and not

not quite sure what this is about, the votergate “about” page seems to be busted. i recall in the 80’s the sidwalk graffiti near the polling places that said, “if voting changed anything, it’d be illegal.” speaking of the bay area, i know i’ve linked to this before, but i always like checking back in on the list. some of my current faves:

  • 16 bitch pileup
  • brain police
  • dreadful children
  • go kart mozart
  • maylene and the sons of disaster
  • space monkey ganstas

i love the bay area and miss it sometimes for sure, but i’m so happy i now live in this crazy f’ing town. [update: and while we are (trying to get off) the subject of electoral politics, we can agree that “Fox is not a credible news outlet and needs to be stopped.” I’d say duh, but Foxattacks.com has some good stuff there for media activists.

so many folks have sent me the link to this woman’s cool timelapse film, i had to post it here. i’ve dreamed up a few different ideas of timelapse projects it would be great to do someday soon: the building of our chicken coop, a well-managed gourmet restaurant kitchen from open to close, a couple having a fight, and a picture a week for a kid growing to adulthood. feel free to comment with links to other cool timelapse stuff.

ow.

i keep finding new sidewalk ponies around SE pdx and this was one i’d not yet taken a picture of, til it was run over. inpired by other flickrheads, i’ve started to once again put titles and some descriptions on my pix, and post to more groups. it’s such a great tool and community, i can get sucked in big time.

see more sidewalk ponies, and the original story.
