“Just as flat as that. It was the saddest night. I felt as if I was with strange brothers and sisters in a pitiful dream. Then a pitiful silence fell over everybody; where once Dean would have talked his way out, he now fell silent, but standing in front of everybody, ragged and broken and idiotic, right under the light bulbs, his bony mad face covered with sweat and throbbing veins, saying, “Yes, yes, yes,” as though tremendous revelations were pouring into him all the time now, and I am convinced they were, and the other suspected as much and were frightened. He was Beat-the root, the soul of Beatific. What was he knowing? He tried all his power to tell me what he was knowing, and they envied that about me, my position at his side, defending him and drinking him in as they once tried to do. Then they looked at me. What was I, a stranger, doing on the West Coast this fair night?” (195)

“What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks and dispersing?-it’s too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-by. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies.” (156)


I’m coming on the end of On the Road by Kerouac, what’s next to read? That’s a hard question to answer…maybe Burrough’s Naked Lunch? We’ll see…I need to road-trip, something major… Headed to San Fran Saturday, that should satisfy me somewhat… ]]> ~glitch16 http://glitch16.deviantart.com/journal/9286031/ http://glitch16.deviantart.com/journal/9286031/ Wed, 05 Jul 2006 20:57:13 PDT

I have started a new series, of faces...my friends, family, people that have influenced me. I think my ultimate goal would be to do a gallery show, imagine these pictures about six feet tall, displayed in a gallery...they would be overwhelming...and amazing...feedback will be appreciated.

I hope to do some studio work, thats where I want to improve, but we'll see. I look forward to being more active, I cleaned out my gallery, got rid of a lotta junk in there...I look forward to getting that pageview count up, but mostly I look forward to making good Art... Cheers to you all.

So....uhh, I've kinda given up on DA. I post a picture, I have over a hundred watchers, and I get like four comments. I've seen a true art scene, and that is what I am striving for. I will continue to post here, but probably infrequently, and I won't put too much weight on feedback and comments. We'll see if that changes.

So today, is the day, it finally happened... My hair has become it's own entity, it live and breathes on it's own now. (The hair on my head Gokuyert, you little perv). I'll get it cut soon.
I've been stressed...lots of school work, it's starting to taper off, but the load is still interesting. I got my first speeding ticket a day or so ago...so stupid, I was going 47 in a 30 zone, real stupid...oh well. There goes more money, sadness. I'm looking forward to break, to hanging with friends, watching movies, non-cafe food...ya know the usual. Looks like I'll have some work too, which should be pretty cool.

I've also kinda reached a point with my artwork, I think it's good, don't get me wrong, but I think it has a very "stock photography" feel, I need to start developing my own...flare, my own style, and conceptually rethink the way I shoot. I hope to meet with one of my art profs on this next semester, I'm at the point where pretty landscapes are nice, but not what I want to be doing. Although I think perhaps my portaiture has gone beyond the stock point, I think I could develop that farther, and pay the bills with that aspect of my talent. We'll see what happens, the future is exciting. Hope everything is going well with everyone else, anything overly interesting going on?

It's interesting I think, I've mastered the art of the 30 second conversation. You know what I am talking about, you walk by someone you know, and exchange glances, "Hey, how ya doin'?" "Fine, you?" "Pretty good!" "Ok great have a nice day!" And then you part ways, you might not have even stopped in the first place, this could have all taken place while you were walking past each other. It's almost sad how impersonal the world has gotten. I'm not proud of the fact that I have mastered the 30 second conversation!

Hung my first show today, and also sold two prints. Proof that I shall never open a prints account here on DA. Sure I might have the chance to get my work out to more people faster, but from a money point of view, my prints are worth a lot more when collectors know that I will only be printing twenty prints of a particular picture, ever. Not to mention the fact that I douby any of you would be willing to actually pay for a print, gallery collectors are. I guess I remember what it's like to make money once again with photography.

These were the pictures I used:



School's being a bitch right now, too much work, something's gonna get dropped I'm sure.

Made a drawing today, of some leaves, easily the best drawing I've ever done, I'm not that, that's much to brag about at all, I was happy though but, I'm not a...drawer? Whatever I can't draw, or paint, my medium is through a camera. I work in chips and negatives, I'll leave the pencils and the paints to others.

In other news, I have a new favorite band, if you haven't already gotten the chance to listen through some of the Smashing Pumpkins work, I'd reccomend it. Particularly, their songs off their "Hit's" CD, anyway... yeah good stuff.

We had an artist lecture last night, interesting. We had a painter, forgive me for not remembering his name, but he painted strictly from a message point of view, meaning that he would sacrafice aestetic properties to support a particular message. I'm not sure what I think about that now, I mean, as much as I can respect what he was saying, I'm not sure if I think that a visual artist should be satisfied with dis-unity in his piece, know what I mean? Well, his works sells, and he has collectors, and has been doing it and teaching it for a long time so I assume that he knows what he's doing.

So this summer's is going to be busy, for those of you that remember I worked all last summer doing a comercial contract with our local Fire Dept. doing all their employee photos and stuff, ended up making a 30x30 composite. Made a lot of money. Well turns out I might be doing the same for the police dept, this summer, which is twice as big. Although that means twice as much work, that also means twice as much money, and that's worth it.

It's interesting, I was talking to a friend last night and she mentioned that it's almost required that artsists these days, fit the "brooding artist" sterotype.

I'd agree and disagree with that statement, I think that as artists, are in general, more emotionaly aware then others. I think that, for me at least, something as simple as a song or the weather can totally alter my mood.

Have you all heard some of Wilco's music? I've just started listening to them, they win, I love it. Great work...

But anyway, I think that the creative mentality almost always takes a "tortured soul" kind of person, know what I mean? Even if you are one or not, I think that people tend to be a little more willing to give into depression, not that they are depressed, it's just they relate to the feeling.

I want to move to Seattle and live in a house like Donald Miller, I want a friend that I call Tony the Beat Poet. Someday I wonder if I'll ever live the romanticized life of an starving artist, it looks oddly attractive to me. Like the ending of Janet Finch's White Oleander when the main character ends up in Italy with her lover making art and living in an almost bare apartment. Why does that attract me? I want to sit in the rain and listen to Vivaldi.

Don't take this as depression being manifested by me, because I'm truly happy. I just think to much I'm convinced. Who knows...

So, I realized something. Let's call it an epiphany.

Being cynical fits me, seems more real. Not that I am a jerk to people or not, but I just tell the truth...

I finally started taking pictures again. 's essay inspired me to carry my camera with me, and as a result I captured a postable image today.

Went to a gallery showing of James Nachtway's images last Saturday, was amazing, then went Samy's camera's and held an H1D...amazing.

2-D Design class is tough, I mean....we have to do a composition taken from photocopies or scans from books...I don't DO that kind of art. I mean I can but I don't like it. So it makes it harder. Oh well I'll push through.

So be expecting more pictures.

And also, I have started using my other account to display all my work from my art classes, SO PLEASE go look there and comment so I know what you all think, you'll finally be able to see where I am NOT gifted.

Yours,
-A

P.S. Props to She is amazing, I wish I had that skill.

Long drive, probably six hours, so that makes 12 hours of driving in a total of 72 hours time, that's a lotta driving.

And somewhere in the mix I missed my one year anniversary here on DA, so I need to thank some people...

Thank you, for teaching me your tricks, my black and whites would be no where close to where they are now without you, thanks.

Thanks for being a great friend, your an awesome girl, truly.

Dude, thanks for bein there, your an awesome friend as well, although you piss me off with your "knowledge" of gear, get out and take some pictures...friggen gear-head. Love ya man, and not in "that" way.....penis.

For being there, and for keeping me awake late at night with our conversations...thanks Bry

Hey Ellen, your amazing, love ya...such a good friend as well, thanks for bein there... (Does Friday work for you? I'll bring the preacher... ;-p)

Thanks, your such an encouragment to watch improve, we've both come sooo far

Ahh Teejwah, great knowin you man, this Christmas break we're going shooting no matter what (as long as you can get some slack in your leash...)

And finally... thanks for being an advisor, and an encourager, you've helped me grow from where I was to where I am, you are truly a great photographer, and you have such a willingness to share advice with others...it's a privlege having you in DA... Thanks Chris, I never believed what they said about you (just kidding).

And with that, I am finished. I hope I did not leave anyone out, and if I did, I am truly sorry, but there are just so many wonderful people here on DA that have been my friends and helped me to grow, thanks to all of you.

I'm turning into my Dad though, I was sitting out in front of our coffee shop on campus reading "My Name is Asher Lev" and I was listening to Peter White and the mixes of emotions from both the music and the book were making me cry...talk about crazy, I never cry...

Roomate life is interesting, I don't always wake up to my alarm, but my roomies do, so usally they wake me up! I feel bad but what are ya gonna do??

Classes are fun, for a pretty conservative school it seems like we're gonna stretch the boundaries which'll be excting, photo's coming soon, there's material everywhere, just finding the right times... Take care all

Well on a double take, she was an OLD old friend of mine, from like...Middle school, we had art class at her house, played cowboys and indians, she was my first real crush...totally random, we exchanged numbers, I hope she calls me before I leave...

Anyways, I'm tired...late late nights, long days, early mornings. I leave for LA in...some ridiculously short amount of time, eight days I think?

I posted some pictures from the wedding I did last week...I hope you all take a look. Check out I just popped onto her site and she has quite a style.

Thanks for all the support, stress level is peaking this next week, but once I get into the groove down in LA I'll be all back to normal.

I am soo tired, been working 8 hours days everyday this week. The fire department contact will be done next week, then I will be getting a check. Love that.

I leave for college in twelve days, isn't that crazy? I am on my own in twelve days...On my own in LA, wow.

....Wow was just reading over my older Journals, how emo was I back when Jo and I broke up, we're back to talking to each other again, she really is a cool friend, regardless of past. Check her out sometime, and by her I mean her artwork you sickos

I shoot a wedding tomorrow, hopefully that goes smooth...It's not really a paying job, but it'll be fun, and it's an attracted couple so portfolio pictures hopefully.

Ok, so I go to Starbucks like...twice a day, is that sad? Some people think it is, but that's like my relax time to read and stuff.

I'm lookin for a Rollei, like a TLR maybe, vintage. Yes got to me, I found a nice one on ebay with a Zeiss lens for like 80$, I mean c'mon...Zeiss glass for 80$, SERIOUSLY now...

Anyway it's late and the Aaron is tired... Night all.

So ok, this whole thing... Give me a fucking break, SERIOUSLY...sorry for the french but this pisses me off. Take some fricken pictures...

I joined this site, for the ability to post pictures, and to recieve feedback, in the meantime I have developed a friendbase, but I am here for the comments and the pictures...

People, if I have images on the 7th, by God I WILL submit them... As a matter of fact, to protest your protest, I will make it a point to have some...

Made some valid points, I read the leaks, I saw the screenshots, and I agree with him

TAKE PHOTOS, forget this "Fuck the Man" mentality, seriously...who cares? Think the other Deviant art staff cares?

I wouldn't, they don't get paid per deviation. Look, you don't know what happened, there had to be a reason for Jark's termination, and legally they can't share that with us.

If this is just another example of the "Artsy anti-corporation" attitude, give me a bucket to vomit into, then a Starbucks to clean my mouth out with. If you guys knew Jark, then awesome, I'm happy for you. Sounds like he's a great guy, who for whatever reason, screwed up enough to get fired. It happens. But move on. I shared my views with she said she was getting caught up in it because everyone else was, I have a feeling that is how most of you are. If you have a genuine problem, then email the admin, with the exception of that be quiet. Tell you what, I'm going to start a protest, I wanna protest telemarketers....On August 9th, no one answer their phones!! Give me a break... In the meantime, I'll leave all you sticky fingered internetians to your bloggings and your posting, I'll be out taking photos, making art, and reading some philosphy...Peace out.

P.S. Our roadtrip theme song is "Reckless Abandon" by Blink 182....

On and on, reckless abandon
Something's wrong, this is gonna shock them
Nothing to hold on to
We'll use this song to lead you on
And break the truth with more bad news
He left a scar, size extra large

War is elsewhere
You were chosen
This is Gods land
Soon we'll be free
Of blot and mixture
Seeds planted by our Forefathers hand"
A mass of promises
Begin to rupture
Like the pockets Of the new world kings
Like swollen stomachs In Appalachia
Like the priest that fucked you As he whispered holy things
A mass of tears have transform the stones now
Sharpened on suffering
And woven into the slings
Hope lies in the rubble of this rich fortress
Taking today what tomorrow never brings

This is the new sound, just like the old sound

-Rage Against the Machine

I see the smoke and fire
And the market burning down
I see a tulip on the grave
Of a lover who confessed
I'm a soldier and a poet
But I'm a dancer at best

I said come on
Come on
You're tellin me to see the truth even with my eyes sewn up
Come on
You're tellin me to tell the truth even with my mouth sewn shut

We traveled to South France to a city named Cassis, which turned out to be nice, crowded but nice. I guess that's what you get in the French Riviera in summer. We drove to several other towns but they were equally as crowded and unexciting for the most part. The next day we drove more into South-Eastern France in Provence. We picked up a picnic in a small village (I forget the name), it was market day so there were stalls everywhere selling pretty much everthing. I met some local photographers one of which wasn't to impressive but the other lady, shot exclusivly medium format black and white, was just amazing.

Day after that we left Arles, where we were staying after Paris, and drove to Chauminx, where I am now. We had a down day today, just kinda shopped and walked around. Tomorrow we take the Gondola OVER the alps, that should be amazing, Panoramic views ect...

Another point I'm going to hit on. I was reading Donald Miller's "Searching for God Knows What" and he was explaining some ideas he had about Adam and Eve and the fall, and I literally had an epiphany. As I was traveling around Europe I was feeling very very lonely, to myself. I looked and saw all these in love couples ect, needless to say I (at the moment) wasn't to happy about traveling with the parents. But I realized, lonliness wasn't a bad thing persay. Adam says in Genesis (I don't have a bible with me at the moment) but he says that he didn't feel complete, that he was lonely, but God did not give him a mate right away, in fact he asked Adam to name all the animals first, if you think about that....that is a job, I mean it would take YEARS to name the snakes alone. But once that was done God created Eve. God puts spots of lonliness in our lives at certain times, and instead of feeling sorry for ourselves perhaps we should focus on other parts of out lives.

Watching all the insects march along
Seem to know right where they belong
Smears of face reflecting in the chrome
Hiding in the crowd i'm all alone

Noone's heard a single word I've said
They don't sound as good outside my head
It looks as if the past is here to stay
I've become a million miles a--

Why do you get all the love in the world?

All the jagged edges dissapear
Colors all look brighter when you're near
The stars are all a fire in the sky
Sometimes I get soo lonely I could--

Why do you get all the love in the world

P.S. Pictures coming soon

ALSO I wanted to let you all know that my poetry has moved to a new account, PLEASE add it to your watch lists also, I'd love for you guys to keep up with that as well check it out at ]]> ~glitch16 http://glitch16.deviantart.com/journal/5002047/ http://glitch16.deviantart.com/journal/5002047/ Mon, 04 Apr 2005 20:51:20 PDT
1. The business of photography: People see photography as fun and easy. They feel that their time behind the camera is just like buying a winning lottery ticket with every roll of film. They become masters at selling themselves and learn all the tricks to making money in ANY business and apply it to one they feel is the best bang for the buck. Unfortunately, they usually forget that they should have learned how to shoot.

2. Artists: They paint with light. They may be really technical or just very artistic with a basic working knowledge of the science of photography. They spend all their money on gear and sets and Venti Vanilla Latte's while wearing scarves under their moppish hair wishing they were discovered. Some of them are talented, some of them should be lost in the woods: but all except the very very few have any money at all. They live with six roommates, who are all waiter/actors, working part time at the art store, Ritz camera or comic book shop.

3. The Photographer: He is not an artist, but a artisan. Not the painter who expresses himself from an empty canvas creating something from nothing. He is rather a stone mason taking the ordinary and bringing the mundane to extraordinary meaning and purpose. An artisan is someone who works with something inherently practical and useful for people but ads his skill to it to make it special as well. Anyone can take a picture, but a photographer will MAKE a picture. Make is unique, make it personal, make it real, make it 3 dimensional. This makes him a commodity and not an extravagance. And a commodity is an investment worth paying into.
