West Coast Love

I'm beginning to seriously reconsider the name and over-all existence of this blog.
If it wasn't for a few precious morsels I just discovered I may have considered it moot for too long.

I guess as with every large trend or shift in social culture (BLOGGING), there comes a point when a thing looses its specialness. When its plundered and over saturated and suddenly there is nary a thing that excites you in an overly familiar realm.

The things that do still seem worth a few characters are the things that have been important to me since befor I knew how to use a credit card or who alexander wang was.

THE NEW COLLABORATIVE WEBSITE OF COLORS MAGAZINE

COLORSLAB is the new laboratory of ideas for COLORS MAGAZINE. We want to make this magazine an open, global conspiracy of ideas.
We are looking for your suggestions, stories, pictures and videos.

We want people who understand the spirit of COLORS; musicians, filmmakers, photographers, artists and writers.

So sign up and send us your daydreams, works, ideas and nightmares. The COLORS team will sift through them and include the best ones in our final, print edition.

Selected submissions will also appear on our website. With lots of people visiting www.colorsmagazine.com every day, you will be able to use our site as an on-line portfolio as well.

I did it, they indeed posted my submission online (i havent gotten the printed issue yet). I submitted under my pen name in honor of the only other person i know who loves the sea as much as i do Lana Michelson, the first person to coin the phrase "goodmorning human" and sear it into my schema forever.

THE SUM OF ALL ITS PARTS

"as i begin a final decent to the sea, i can feel the change in the air and am simply waiting for the broad expanse of pacific blue to be revealed, akin to the feeling of entering baseball stadiums, when the dirt and the grass and the lights bombard the eyes with pleasure and all you can do is revel in awe of something understandably greater than the sum of its parts.." - Ian momsen

fish are friends. not food.

ok, well i did just have trout salad for dinner. but at least this way they can be friends and food! get yourself a freshwater fish aquarium.

On the Beach

"I was drawn to the fragility and grace of the human figure in the landscape, My thinking about this work was influenced by the events of 9/11, particularly by the images of individuals and couples falling from the World Trade Towers, as well as by the 1950's Cold War novel and film, On the Beach. Paradise has become an uneasy dwelling place; the sublime sea frames our vulnerability, the precarious nature of life itself." - Richard Misrach

chills.
