erik says, “human beings appear to prefer strict geometric design while nature flows in a chaotic, organic way. when investigating further, one realizes that nature follows certain highly advanced patterns and that we humans – from time to time – prefer the organic flow to the well defined, the controlled, the organized.”

oscar wilde said that if you know what you want to be, then you inevitably become it – that is your punishment, but if you never know, then you can be anything. there is a truth to that. we are not nouns, we are verbs. i am not a thing – an actor, a writer – i am a person who does things – i write, i act – and i never know what i am going to do next. i think you can be imprisoned if you think of yourself as a noun.
the only way.
in this age,
which believes that
there is a short cut
to..e v e r y t h i n g,
the greatest lesson
to be learned is that
the most difficult way
is, in the long run,
the easiest.

i peaked in hs.
story tiiiiiiime. so, as you may or may not know, i grew up in michiana (a classy place named after classy radio personalities who didn’t feel like taking five extra seconds to distinguish between michigan and northern indiana during weekly broadcasts). basically, it was a REALLY small town and a REALLY big deal when friday’s, chili’s, AND barnes & noble all opened up at the exact same time on top of neighboring cornfields in the middle of mishawaka (another classy place named after a native american princess who got stabbed in the boob). wow, wikipedia. just. wow. aaaaanyway, when the time came for my older sister to consider her part-time high school job options, she wisely choose books and newspapers over lukewarm queso and suspender flair. 5 years later, i was more than happy to cash in on the nepotism and opted for the same. let the record reflect, i LOVED working at barnes & noble. the in-store cafe was 50% off, i made a KILLING during christmas (#jewishhhh), and they paid me to wear the six flags clifford couture.
yes, kids.

i took marvin’s reSOULution ride this morning (it’s called a “reSOULultion” because you “resolve” to ride for a brutal 90min instead of the usual 45min). after it was over and i didn’t die, i hopped off my bike, buried my face in a complimentary towel, and – quite unexpectedly – burst into tears. the truth? i don’t know a whole lot about the gritty specifics and logistics of 2013 and it’s frustrating the fuck out of me.…{deep breath, heavy sigh}…but … there’s always a but … i do know some things, better things. for instance, how i felt this morning is how i want to feel all year:
tested.
sweaty.
open.
ready.
and that’s how i’ll get to tomorrow.
c’mon, guys. woo. woo!
happy tomorrow.
believin’ all the hooey.

“if you haven’t noticed, you are in the midst of a transition that is affecting every single part of your life. come next year, things will look and feel different. it’s as if you are on a trapeze and letting go of one ring to fly and catch the other. be brave.” – horoscope, dec 3

that being barely alive,

is better than living

new york
like this before.
never seen
these colours,
the city flushed,

chest cracked open so you can see
everything jammed in,
working on top of each other

i visited joanna over the weekend and,
not only did she play mostest hostess,
she surprised me with a trip to the ica
for stefan sagmeister’s happy show.
on a gumball scale from 1 → 10,
i threw down 25¢ for a 9.
.
ps – obvs, my happiness symbol is a video gchat in full screen.

the roof is on fire.
one time i attended – – – >
an earth sciences theme party
inside a high rise on bleecker.
the host? a vulcanist.
.
besides meeting a vulcanist
and his ernest follow through
with the earth sciences theme,
the mvp of the night was his view.
.
through the vulcanist’s living room window,
located way way up on floor 20-somethingth,
you could see every trustafarian rooftop
from houston to wall street.
.
it.
was.
awesome.

couleurs de l’ombre.

“when i visited his studio in tokyo, hiroshi sugimoto showed me his project colours of shadow. i remember it very clearly: at the centre of a large, light-filled room, rising like a column from floor to ceiling, there stood a crystal prism of immaculate clarity. this was an experimental device whereby, every morning, the sunlight passing through the prism would create a world of colours, projected like shadows on the white walls of the studio. a chromatic epiphany in polaroid that the artist suggested we could capture on our silk scarf. out of this came 20 subtle variations, all different, printed in giant format.”
.
ps – this image of hermès dressing hiroshi is oh so adorable.
pps – afterzine’s oh so incredible editor’s diary found it all first.
