SLAPPETIME

Sarah was in China so I went to Portland for about 36 hours to see my friend Stephen Slappe's amazing 3-channel video installation called Shelter In Place. It's at NAAU and it's awesome so if you are in PDX you should go see it before it's gone (it closes June 14th). Go, go go. Now, now, NAAU!

TEN YEARS LATER

I met Sarah 10 years ago today. A couple of days later I asked her out and a couple of days after that we went on our first date and I never looked back. I can't describe how lucky I am to have her. She is better than the best wife I could have ever imagined.

This is the earliest known photo of our relationship, taken on May 22, 1999. A decade may seem like a long time, but believe me, we're just getting started.

MY SLPS SLIDESHOW

Here is the original edit of my SLPS slideshow (which for some reason they edited when showing the other night). Enjoy!

SLIDELUCK POTSHOW SF II

My photos will be shown Friday night at the Slideluck Potshow SF II. It's a slideshow/potluck party packed with art and free food. What a combo!

Artists in the show are:
Adam Lau * Alan George * Andy Freeberg * Alexander Warnow * Ariel Zambelich * Bryan Alberstat * Carmen Winant * Christian Peacock * David Butow * David Paul Morris * Deanne Fitzmaurice * Douglas Adesko * Elinor Carucci * Geoffrey Ellis * Grant Ernhart * Jeff Enlow * Jon Feinstein * Khaled Hasan * Kira Sugarman Shemano * Lara Hata * Lorenzo Triburgo * Matt Reamer * Melissa Barnes * Michael Jang * Robert Herman * Robin Schwartz * Shepard Fairey * Stephen McGee * Todd Hido * Toni Greaves * Victor Blue *(I didn't have time to do everyone's links, but if you are on here, email me your link and I'll put it up!)

Hey, that's a pretty good list! Although sad to see a couple of other local friends didn't make it, I will pour some developer fluid on the block in their memory.

My slideshow features images from my current record store project.
