victoria mason

"I used to try to save perfect pencil shavings. They looked so beautiful, especially if I'd sharpened a couple of different colours. But they'd never keep. I'd try to keep them whole for as long as I could but they never lasted for very long. Now I can make ones that do keep. And you can even wear them around your neck." - victoria mason

i want my holga

and i want it now. i sound like veruca salt. really excited about my future holga adventures with lucy. should be heaps fun. i want a darkroom so i can develop my own photos. that would be wicked sweet.

on another note, i know this is going to sound weird - i like the sound of tape in the holga youtube clips. it's soothing, like chalk on the blackboard ... not nails - chalk. and the sound of people flicking through a book with thick pages, like in playschool. and the feeling of electric tape, especially when you pull and cut. ialsoliketosniffbooksokbye.

phillip toledano

"Phillip Toledano was born in London to a French Moroccan mother, and an American father. He believes that photographs should be like unfinished sentences. There should always be space for questions. Phillip’s work is socio-political, and varies in medium, from photography, to installation." - mrtoledano

moving on from xanga

i figure it's about time i should, despite the two years or so that i've been dedicated to xanga. blogger seems just so much more superior - and it looks prettier when you're posting. omg i just noticed the 'add image' option - i thought blogger wouldn't have it. sweet.
