PVRG JPEG

A page I made extolling the virtues of the Portable Video Research Group JPEG implementations. This is an old and obscure tool that I feel needs more recognition.

NYC graffiti stickers 1992-1995

From the Nonist, a collection of stickers found on the streets of New York in the early nineties. The image of granny with the tommy gun is one I found and incorporated into a piece of art myself around the same time. I cannot remember where I found that image, though.

Blue Moon Camera and Machine

Primarily a camera store, they also sell typewriters. The connection? An affection for old machines. Many used cameras, and not just the 35mm stuff you find everywhere. Large format. Subminature. Half-frame. 6x6. All that's missing is pictures of the cameras. (Flickr seems to have photos of every collectible camera, but sometimes those are hard to find among the pictures FROM the cameras.)

A4 Paper Cut

Cut and folded A4 (metric equivilent of the US 8.5"x11 sheet) paper making very elaborate models and duality statements. One example is "The Short Distance Between Time and Shadow", where the paper cut resembles a big city skyline and the folded shape is a pagoda.
