Emily

Back on May 30th I was in Dallas, and my friend Emily asked to photograph me. In my old age I have mellowed so that I no longer feel the camera (aimed at me) is keen on stealing my soul.

I agreed. Then turned the tables on her with an interview. Love the short hair!

It comes as a shock when I realize I've known Emily for about 20 years, ever since she was around seven. If you listen carefully, you can her her mom, Jean, laughing in the background.

Some random shots of San Miguel de Allende from the last few weeks. The singer is a street musician named Arturo Araiza. His friends call him Squirrel.

Abhorring a Vacuum (clip)


Click here, or just click on the image.

This is a clip from a rough edit of my current short narrative project, titled "Abhorring a Vacuum."

It's basically an improv piece starring Kat O'Neal, Kerry Valderrama, and Carlos Pina. I directed and "scripted" the piece. Russ Ansley shot it.

I was trying to do a sort of porno, without the sex. Whether this succeeds or not will depend on the music. I'm turning the job over to Russ (as I have to rush off to sunny Mexico--IRS issues, understand).

I've not added anything in ages to this video blog (though I have at least four postings sitting on tape and awaiting editing). And so this rushed clip will have to do for now.
