New Painting "Brick Walls"

I am no painter, but I like to do it. Its one of the oldest forms of art, and it just feels good. I recently received paints, paint brushes, and a canvas for christmas from Rosie Jager. I was more than delighted to receive them. While painting this picture of the two brick walls, I listened to 3 really good albums. I started out with Buck Owens "Before You Go/No One But You" circa 1965. Then moved onto Diamond Rings new album "Special Affections" and finally concluded the album with Tom Waits's "Bone Machine" 1992. The albums really helped me complete my project. I hope to continue to paint and put my stuff up here on the blog. The music is essential when painting. Check out any of those albums if you haven't already they're each really really good.

Polaroids "Snowy Sunset"


This is after "The Great White Christmas of '10" Here in the Jager's backyard is a beautiful scene of a sunset beaming through the trees and resting its rays on the snow. There is a mysterious glowing box in the center of the frame. Who knows? I now have one polaroid left. I gotta buy some more maybe... Hope you all enjoy!

Polaroids "Chandelier"


I took this polaroid yesterday at Rosie's house. They have this beautiful chandelier, and I thought that the polaroid might come out looking a lot like the first Vampire Weekend Album Cover. Turns out it kinda does. I have another polaroid from this day that looks spectacular of the snow. That will be appearing soon. You must be patient.

Soundtrack Music #2

Here is another song composed by Ben and I. Its a slow moving reflective song. In these recordings we stuck to using one Yamaha keyboard and the MicroKorg synth. These song has a unusual amount of feedback because the keyboard was run through a ibanez delay pedal.

Lot Soundtrack

Here is the first song off the original soundtrack for the film. Its really long and I think only party of the song will actually be used. It has its intense moments and will probably be sliced down to 30 seconds. Enjoy "Tense Moment (Running in slow motion)" let your mind run wild with what is happening during this music.

Short Film Script

Hey everybody! I have been working on a script for my very first official short film entitled "Lot". I've been working with this very minimalist idea. One scene with one setting. Hopefully it will all work together into a cohesive film. I have it on here for download if anyone cares to read it. Also Ben Watson and I have been working on the soundtrack. The film has to be 5 min so we'll see how well our songs fit in there. I will put those up soon...

In Atlanta

I'm in Atlanta today. I made this video from a building. I have no idea what floor I am on. But I haven't posted in a long time, and I thought I would just leave this. The glass bends the frame and ultimately bends the buildings. I can see bloomingdales and the marta from where I am. Enjoy. Its not really anything.
