Light Drawings by Eric Staller ART/PHOTOGRAPHY

"In the late 70's I created photographs: long time-exposures done at night in New York City.
While the camera was positioned on a tripod, with the lens opened for several minutes, I moved through urban spaces with a variety of light sources. These were exhibited and published world-wide. Cibachrome prints of these images are available through me." - Eric Staller

Harley Davidson ad campaign by Andreas Bommert



Vampire Weekend | Cousins [test clip/video treatment]

This was made in July of this year to give a taste of how the video would play out. Looks ridiculous with all of the figures, but the motion seems to be the main focus of the test.

Spaghetti Ginge

I don't know who the artist is, but I'd like to know. 10 quid to the most pretentious juxtaposition of the spaghetti and hair!

The Dandies Of Sub-Saharan Africa

"A new photo book by Daniele Tamagni explores the phenomenon of 'sapeurs', a clique of extraordinarily dressed dandies from the Congo. In the midst of war and abject poverty, these men dress in tailored suits, silk ties, and immaculate footwear."

This is really bizarre, but brilliant! Some of these pictures look like something out of a Wes Anderson film.











This is the second thing I've seen today by pure chance about cliques in remote parts of poverty effected regions. The other being a Aboriginal town in Northern Australia that has gangs who are defined by Heavy Metal bands. Metallica Mob and Judas Priest Mob are just some of the local gangs. Even the girls have their own with Madonna Mob. Watch that documentary on VBS.TV. It's really interesting! Also, there's a heavy metal dance off in it. Need I say anymore!

Dubbing over Slipknot. Genius!
