my photos from the poetry slam saturday after the gettypede. Note, these photos where not from my camera but another persons that was there and let me use it. It was in the Sony Alpha series which I have little idea on how to get to some of the controls I wanted to, but at least I got the option to use 3200 ISO, which I didn’t much because I didn’t want mad grain on the photos. just wish the batteries didn’t die earlier that day still Anywho, here you go, I often forget how difficult it is to get good photos of people speaking or playing music on stage.

but that doesn’t mean to give up on that.

yeah, a friend of mine linked me to this and I’m really not sure what I saw. Also my video from the poetry slam are coming, I had to send them to someone first. They wanted to put both our videos together and have the audio synced with each other.

because, just, uhh…

Here you go, online now. but yeah, my camera died just over 2/3th through. But with luck another friend there walking the line let me use his for the rest of it and I got them from him today.

now take sight of the wonder.

I was invited to goto a poetry slam in Santa Monica last night and record some video for it. I would of also took photos but during the Gettypede the battery in my camera died. Luckily another friend of mine there walking the line let me use his to finish up so the photos should be online monday. Anywho video for this event is coming but for now here is a photo from the iPad of our Master of Ceremonies.

So here is the story. I was with my friend, seen here in this photo at the Fabric District in Downtown and something I did was pull out my iPad and started playing the song “Long Live The Misanthrope” from the band Soilwork and she sits on her longboard and asks if I can push her. I figured why not, strange enough to be funny.

So we reach this one intersection and some homeless dude stops up and asks what we are doing. I reply “why do you care?” and says well she’s black and you’re white. “so? we’re being funny and weird, we do that.” And to think, thats not my strangest encounter with a homeless person.

I was bored and being lazy, so I just changed the time and place form the the flyer I made last year.

I’m helping a friend of mine with a video and took some test shots with the ipad. Came out nicely.

Sad how someone has to try again.

Don’t worry I got it back in it’s nest. not sure how it come out in the first place but should be good now.
