how we do in new zealand



Picture by Sarah Ellis. From the anti-mining march that I couldn't attend (regrettably) as I was working. 40,000 strong took to the main street of Auckland for the rally. I love that people people are mobilising for what they believe in; it feels like a post Obama galvanisation, even all the way down here....

I took your poison...



Such a beautiful song. This band rarely, if ever, puts a foot wrong. In my humble, yet fervent, opinion.

her tulips talk to my wound

And yes, I do admire and read authors who didn't die by their own hand, or lifestyle. If that had occurred you.

Plenty of 'em

desire



I want this book so badly. I've been searching for it for years. It sells for hundreds of dollars second hand: it's that rare and out of print. Won't someone reissue it?

Wingate Paine



Resurrection recently had an exhibition of his works; echoes of Sam Haskins, whose work I concidentally - or not - became familiar with when working at Resurrection NY a few years ago. Katy Rodriguez, one of the store's two owners and proprietors, is now producing her own, eponymous range which strikes me as brilliant given how many designers and their assistants came through and mined her archives: a constant stream. Now she has first pick of the whole inspirational bunch.

Sleep. Exactly what I need to be doing at this very moment. Except that it's Winter and too cold for sleeping nude. Central heating is virtually non-existent in this country; I still daydream about the clanging, hissing radiator that was at the end of my bed in my apartment in Williamsburg. Right now, nothing would sound as comforting...

trem two



I know a beautiful woman from Kalamazoo, I truly do.

Wish I had caught them on this tour.
