    Looking Ahead to the Summer

    I’ve been a busy video editor these past couple of days, working on trimming various accumulated footage into a pitch video for our upcoming Kickstarter campaign, titled “Summit to Sea”, which will launch this Sunday. As I’ve mentioned, Lorie and I are planning on kayaking from my childhood home in Stevensville, MT, all the way…

  • Codename Porkchop

    Codename Porkchop

    January is usually the time of year when we find the web and various other media inundated with a variety of either “Best of 2011” lists, or resolutions for 2012. I don’t think I’ll really worry about crafting this first post of 2012 to match either of those themes, but I won’t go so far…

    Cross Posted from the 101 in 1001 Days Project:  100 Day Check-in

    In just a matter of hours, Lorie and I will be leaving the house here in Renkum, bound for Amsterdam, and then London. One week from today, by this time, we’ll be somewhere over the Atlantic, home bound for the United States, and then Montana. I’ll try to post from London, before then, if I…

  • What’s My “Urban Style”?

    What’s My “Urban Style”?

    Since we arrived in Amsterdam almost two months ago, I’ve been asking myself a persistent question about my art-making: what’s my urban style? That is, when placed in the environment of the city, what sort of photographs do I make? It was a question that I felt tugging at myself most strongly in Amsterdam, but…

  • November, Nanowrimo, and Movember

    November, Nanowrimo, and Movember

    October transitioned to November this week, and Lorie and I spent our first Halloween abroad. It seems to be something of a non-holiday here in the Netherlands, or at least in Renkum, since we saw a few jack-o-lanterns at one restaurant, but little other evidence of the holiday. When we went to the grocery store,…

  • Asemic Experiments

    Asemic Experiments

    I’ve been keeping busy this past week, but I’ve found my attention wandering a bit from more strictly photographic projects. I wrote earlier this summer about how my attention tends to drift at times, and this week, I’ve been spending a little bit of creative time away from the camera. It’s actually been a little…

  • Papo’s Shop

    Papo’s Shop

    You may have already noticed an update to the photographs section of this website: a selection of images from my explorations of Papo’s Shop last month has been added. At this time, it’s a gallery of fourteen images, and represents a quick selection of favorites from the greater body of work that I made of…

  • Two Weeks in Renkum!

    Two Weeks in Renkum!

    Today marks the end of the second week that Lorie and I have been here in Renkum, and it’s also, coincidentally, our three-month anniversary. I made a horrendously unglamorous bachelor-fare dinner of pizza, with a side of chips and salsa. It’s really not a very appropriate meal for a special occasion, unless one hasn’t had…
