so sad...

I am just realizing that everything I have posted for the last month has been about Flight of the Conchords or God Bless This Circuitry. Is this a sign that I am boring - or just confirmation that I like what I like with a passion that is hard to describe? I think I will try to convince myself it is the latter.

Jury Duty

The Summer Institute at Visual Studies Workshop starts on June 25th so I am a little frazzled. In between the panic attacks I am starting to get images together for my Preacher's Biscuit Book, 40lb. Test. With any luck my first book in years will finally be finished in late (most likely very late) 2007. I think this photo above might be of use - however I have no idea when or where I took it (I suspect San Francisco?). Digital photos are funny that way. I have thousands of images DCP.....on to infinity which become lost on my hard drives, dvds, cds, etc. Since I am so concerned with the lost histories of vernacular images you would think I would take better care in archiving my own work...you would think. Perhaps I will ponder how best to tackle this archiving feat while I sit for hours in jury duty on Monday. The dreaded Monday, just one day before my 33rd birthday (ugh) and one week before workshops begin and my life turns into a hurried mush. Maybe these deep thoughts will also keep me from coveting/buying these shoes...

2. Photographs of Phil's thesis show

Here are some photographs I took at Phil Hendrickson's MFA thesis show last month...it seems like yesterday. These are only small details of his amazingly gigantic print installation.


Hopefully soon he will undertake the challenge of working with Preacher's Biscuit Books. You can find his wife Abbey's best selling book, The Bird Feeder, on the PBB website. Sadly there are only a few copies left...once she produces her baby perhaps she will produce another book!

yet another blog...

Here goes. Yet another blog to waste a few minutes on while you are at work.

I promise that in the coming weeks I will have...

1. a fully functioning website | www.kbluem.com
2. photos posted from Phil's thesis show in Amherst, MA
3. photos posted from lovely Abbey's baby shower
4. details on Preacher's Biscuit Books tour of the Midwest

oh, the possibilities...
