I really love film photographs. They seem to capture light so much better. These were taken with my 1985 Minolta Maxxum 7000. So glad I pulled it out again.
Paris, Je T’aime is one of my favorite movies. It’s set in a city I love, comprised of short films (which I love) and it has great actors.
The unofficial follow up project, New York, I Love You, is set to be released Februrary 13, 2009. (Please someone, take me on a Valentine’s Day date to this movie.) The cast includes Rachel Bilson, Orlando Bloom, Natalie Portman, Christina Ricci, Hayden Christensen and Shia LaBeouf. I can’t wait!
New York magazine did a short bit on it. If you’re interested, it’s here.

Came across this blog/magazine — Design for Mankind — a while ago and have been following its postings for quite some time. It’s all about the “inspiration found in today’s design culture.” In January, I’ll begin doing some work as a research editor for the site. Exciting exciting.
Some of my recent favorites from the site follow…
Neat sitting systems.
Five–seat bench, the seats are turning 360°. Materials; birch plywood, laminated backs.
Walls patched with Legos.

It’s becoming a strange (good) habit of mine to buy things as cheaply as possible… or to search out free stuff. Things I’ve been doing are…
+ getting the Target Weekly Ad in my inbox — Sign up to get it every Sunday. Unlike other stores, it has a nifty page-turning feature online. While looking at the online version, you can click to add items to your list and later print it out to bring to the store.
+ always checking RetailMeNot.com when ordering online — Type in the store from which you’re ordering to get coupon codes. The Web site features a comment section and a success percentage to show how successful or unsuccessful users have been. Three cheers for cheating the system.
+ getting free Wal-Mart samples — So you have to give your e-mail address and sometimes answer some questions, but there’s some good stuff on here and new products get added pretty regularly.
