"I'm Here"




















A new short film by spike jonze, which premiered at sundance this year. The film is a love story between two robots living in LA where humans coexist. There are some really beautiful shots in this film. I was intrigued by the amount of emotional attatchment you feel toward the main characters which are robots.

The film may be viewed online here

Mike Brodie aka Poloroid Kidd




















Recently I came across some photos done by photographer Mike Brodie "Polaroid Kidd." He left home at 18 and began taking shots using a polaroid camera. His subjects usually consist of hobo's, train hoppers and squatters.

Ernest Hemingway




















At quite a young age I was introduced to the writing of ernest hemingway. Throughout the years i have learned to appreciate his prose writing style, and character driven stories. I have found much inspiration in his books when I am creating characters, in particular his novels "A Farewell to Arms," "The Sun Also Rises," and "The Garden of Eden."
