The more you know

The guy that created the Andre has a Posse image was from Charleston, SC. Hmm.

Roscoe Rodgers is my homeboy, take 2

These are images from a screen printing I'm trying to do for a t-shirt. My lovely sister bought me a screen printing kit for Christmas and I'm now trying to figure this all out. My first attempt was to paint screen filler over an image of RR, but only the first swipe worked out.

This is an photo emulsion method using a b&w copy placed onto a treated screen. You treat the screen with the emulsion chemical until it dries and then put the stencil under a light for a bit. For a bit would mean over four hours, not including putting in a new screen. This project is great for anyone who demands instant gratification. Really, it is.

Actually, it's a bit exciting. When the time was up for the exposure, I didn't see anything there until I started to spray the screen. The pressure made the stencil show through and gave a little "woo hoo!"

Now I'm just worried that I got the emulsion too wet and it won't stick. Hey-sooos, this is some kind of flagellation artwork or something....

Great post on Holy Taco on "What if movie posters were honest."

Mr. and Miss Second Life World

I only bash Second Life because I do not have a first one. Don't ask me how I stumbled onto the Flickr group for the pageant. Serendipity perhaps? I tried experimenting with SL. I tried to like it. It's just not my bag baby...

By far the best add ever

I found this image yesterday while processing magazines at the desk. It's by Annie Leibovitz.


I'm not sure what it is that intrigues me about it. I'll admit that I'm more of a fan of Gorby than Louis since the reproduction rates of the luxury accessories has allowed everyone from Paris to trailer trash to sport the well known insignia.

Perhaps it's just the juxtaposition of the man who helped tear down the wall coupled with the thought that LV was his ulterior motive? Maybe Gorby got a record deal since most straight males that I know are a little more pragmatic when it comes to choosing their traveling gear. Maybe it's just the bleakness of the photo juxtaposed with affluence.

Here again

Coming back to work after a two week vacation is hell.

I just read on LifeHacker that they just released Picasa for Mac. I've been using it for some time now and like it a lot. gAndy introduced it to me and should be pleased he can now use it on his new Mac. There's also a new Craigslist app for iPhone. While this doesn't impact me much, the two iPhone users I know are avid checkers of Craigslist.
