First Friday - DEAD OF THE LIVING NIGHT

2009-11-03T15:00:00.017-05:00

So many galleries, so little time. SPACE 1026: Opening reception Friday, Nov. 6 from 7-10pm

An installation by Jonathan Cammisa and Jonah Birns

"DEAD OF THE LIVING NIGHT arises from the artists' like-minded fascination-turned-obsession with childhood fantasies and fears; the inability to look away when you know you should, combined with the desire to stay up all night fantasizing about the greatest adventures and abilities only imaginable."

November 6-27, 1026 Arch St. 2nd Floor, Philadelphia, PA

Space party + women of space.

2009-10-22T18:03:00.011-04:00

SO. I am a creep and researched images of tron/space women and made this supergalactic collage. I've become inspired. Obsessed if you will, with these crazy images of "space women." I am making the most kick ass space costume you eva seen for a friends' Space party this weekend... I found a lot of these images from a blog called Tag Sale Cosmology run by Erica Magrey. I think this woman is fascinated with outer space-fashion/sci-fi. If there was a "Most Interesting Blog of the year" award, I would give it to this one.

RESULTS ARE:

My favorites at Space 1026

2009-10-20T13:29:00.014-04:00

Space 1026 is having an annual Art Auction December 11th this year and you should go buy it up to support these amazing artists!

"...you could try and pull some postmodern shit and say Space 1026 does not exist; but then you'd have to do some explaining to the mice that eat our leftovers every night."

Mercy Brown Vampire Incident, Providence + Metallica

2008-11-17T17:55:00.002-05:00

SO this is a little late, and past the time of Halloween spirit... better late then never?

Long story short: I went to Providence Rhode Island over Halloween. I went to a bar/brewery and drank this one beer named after Mercy Brown. I got it just because the story behind it is so bad ass and is written on a plaque on the wall beneath its name as a description.

Mercy Brown died at the age of 19 to Tuberculosis, which then was a greatly misunderstood and feared disease. Friends and neighbors speculated that members of her family had been actual vampires. They exhumed her body 2 months after her burial to find her body well intact, with blood still in her heart. They believed that she was indeed undead and possibly the key to her brother Edwins sickness. Her heart was removed and mixed with water, then fed to her still alive but Tuberculosis ridden younder brother.

my snaps

This house, by the way i am told, was in horror novelist, H.P. Lovecrafts legendary story: Call of Cthulhu.
Now. i have not read the book, haaa. but i was obsessed with the 9:54 second Metallica instrumental when i was in 8th grade. Which, yes is an homage to Lovecraft. And IT IS soooooo BAD ASS.

Why is the song spelled Ktulu if the book is Cthulhu?
Let me just say Providence has such an eerie heir to it, it feels like it is Halloween everyday.

Cat Power Space Oddity

2008-11-07T11:13:00.000-05:00

I desperately want to hear the full version of Chan Marshall, aka Cat Power's cover of Bowies' Space Oddity. It is slightly lame that all we get is a 30 second version on a car commercial. After some research, I realize no one knows if there is a full version of the song or not. Therefore, if there is, it is not available to anyone yet...

his music fills my soul with apocalyptic feelings of amazement and wonder.

and so do his dance moves.

Jarvis Cocker was due to have an album out in 2008 but obviously it is now happening in 2009. If that video does not change something inside of you. or make you want to fucking slip into another dimension of happy-mind explosion-english-wonderment. then nothing ever will. and too bad for you. boo hoo.

seriously. listen to: Dont let him waste your time.

Sally, Betty & Santo Gold

2008-09-28T20:14:00.000-04:00

Saw a few lads I have not seen in awhile this passed Tuesday, 23rd. They go by the names, Sally & Betty.

------->
LVD opened for Santo Gold at the Troc. like an ass: i didnt realize that when you get a photo pass you can basically do as you please, go in front of everyone. all i thought it meant was you were allowed to take photos, when you normally cant...haa

so basically. the photos that were important to me - didnt turn out because i wasnt close enough for the stage lighting to work to my advantage and only got about one or two fuzzy-in-motion photos of Anthony.

Ladies + gentlemen, Santo Gold.

WHAT THE SHIT

2008-09-23T11:20:00.000-04:00

i seriously need to not come to work semi-intoxicated from the night before. what the shit is wrong with me. i want to evaporate into thin air right now.
or teleport into my bed where I can lay for the entire day soaking up the sleep.

this is how i feel.

TRUTH:

I dont give a fuck, but i DO give a damn - about you thinkin - i give a fuck.

strange moment of epiphany. yesterday when i was listening to the song: one of us must know (sooner or later) by bob dylan.

lyrics as follows...

I didn't mean to treat you so bad
You shouldn't take it so personal
I didn't mean to make you so sad
You just happened to be there, that's all
When I saw you say "goodbye" to your friend and smile
I thought that it was well understood
That you'd be comin' back in a little while
I didn't know that you were sayin' "goodbye" for good

But, sooner or later, one of us must know
You just did what you're supposed to do
Sooner or later, one of us must know
That I really did try to get close to you

I couldn't see what you could show me
Your scarf had kept your mouth well hid
I couldn't see how you could know me
But you said you knew me and I believed you did
When you whispered in my ear
And asked me if I was leavin' with you or her
I didn't realize just what I did hear
I didn't realize how young you were

But, sooner or later, one of us must know
You just did what you're supposed to do
Sooner or later, one of us must know
That I really did try to get close to you

I couldn't see when it started snowin'
Your voice was all that I heard
I couldn't see where we were goin'
But you said you knew an' I took your word
And then you told me later, as I apologized
That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
An' I told you, as you clawed out my eyes
That I never really meant to do you any harm

But, sooner or later, one of us must know
You just did what you're supposed to do
Sooner or later, one of us must know
That I really did try to get close to you

i dont know really know what i realized in the moment.
the very moment being when he says: You shouldn't take it so personal.
then says: But, sooner or later, one of us must know. You just did what you're supposed to do. Sooner or later, one of us must know. That I really did try to get close to you.

sometimes there just are no answers.
I always want an answer.

on a lighter note. watch this shit.
i know everyone and they mama cant stand chris crocker. but just admit that he is hilarious and your life quality will increase by at least 45%

nothing.
