Shot these a few nights ago to turn into a gift for my brother, who is a firefighter and kills for anything fire-related. So I went and grabbed some shots of the firehouse from Ghostbusters with my Holga. I was shooting on some crazy film I bought on a whim. It had a ridiculously low ISO so I had no idea how they would turn out but man, I really like the results. There are more on the way from the same roll.
Below are the firehouse shots, as well as a compilation I put together to print out and send to him.

Today was a snow day here in New York. After last nights noisy, cable-ridden apocalypse, I woke to the amazing (seriously amazing) realization that our offices here were closed and I got to “work from home” (not work at all).
So after high fiving my sleeping roommates in the face, I went to sleep for another three hours. Spent the rest of the day making awesome food, playing video games, watching netflix, cleaning the apartment, etc. etc. It was basically Sunday in the middle of the week.

So tonight’s thing is in a few minutes past midnight. Big deal. I’ve been working on it all night, plus I had to take a break as my roommate Jeff returned from conquering the EU while I was making it, so there was a mandatory break for beer and catching up.
As the snow fell (hard) here in New York, I rushed home from dropping off my film to try and make some music. I had some grand ideas, but most could not be done in one night (especially not by an untalented dick like me)…so I kept it pretty simple. My goal for side B of those noise tapes (the ones I keep blathering about shut up already) was to include some tracks from the past, as well as some one-of-a-kind recorded improvisations.
Tonight, I made one of those beasts, and it sounds like hell. I ended up making the kind of shit that people question what is wrong with you when they catch you listening to it, doubly so if they find out you made the shit.
