The Pool-less Parties

July 14, 2009

It’s officially summer in NYC, and I know because the Pool Parties are back in action. Only this year, they’re not actually at a pool, since McCarren Pool has closed to be restored to it’s former glory as – you guessed it – a pool. Last year, this Sunday ritual was the absolute highlight of [...]

The Great Irony –

June 14, 2009

Banksy’s latest work: An ‘exhibit’ at the City Museum and Art Gallery in Bristol, England. Watch the video. Sit through the BBC presenter’s rather watered-down explanation of the exhibit, talking about Banksy’s infamous ‘chicken nugget‘ installation as a ‘sort of…statement about fast food’.

Hawaii.

January 26, 2009

I always knew how vast America was. It’s large, densely populated (of course relative to Australia, everything is). But a daytime flight to Hawaii certainly made me more aware of that fact. The flight path for NY > HI takes its course coast to coast, and the older, veteran NY’er with whom I struck up [...]

new blog format

January 7, 2009

After some thought on the matter, I’ve decided to move my blog from tumblr back on over to wordpress – especially since my new webhost, dreamhost, makes installing wordpress such a cinch. So look out for a brand-new, unique blog design coming your way soon. Head here to see my previous, sporadic blogging effort.
