I’m interested in situations; I’m interested in life itself.
Nevertheless, I do not trust in the appearance of reality as it is showcased to us in mainstream culture. I like to believe that the surface hides deeper clues and essential mechanisms. Like archeologists, we need to dig in order to excavate what lies beneath.
I am interested in unveiling the simulacrum, or appearance, from the situations that I capture or recreate. To do so, I utilize the same resources and codes, as do other filmmakers, yet I also let the images communicate with a language of their own. The clash generates conflict, which hopefully raises questions. In fact, it is this process of forming questions, which takes us forward.
It has been said that with the help of new technologies we can invent a narrative structure that does more than just illustrate reality. Illustrating is what most cinema does, but that is not what I’m interested in. What interests me is fading reality in order to see it in its most absurd and raw shape. This bleaching of reality helps me not just to transform my senses into forms and ideas, but into energy and force.
I experiment with various filmic genres, forms of expression, and styles. My work is evocative of memory fragments, or travel impressions. My work resists categorization—it is not merely film, not merely documentary, not merely art. It is a hybrid poetic form that expresses my interest in socio-political issues, language, and life itself.
My work articulates the process of exposing and disassociating with the symbols of power, of society, or of communal ideals. This inversion sometimes triggers a mis-en-scène of apocalyptic scenarios. That is the way it should be. If what we take for granted vanishes or proves to be fictitious, we are left either in utter chaos or at the very beginning, where the newly unmasked civilization will be forced to once more reformulate its reality.

Hmm very interesting chomp chomp
I just read these statistics on chompchomp.us about water vs. coke, I mean i dont really drink coke like that anyways. Yo last new years me and my home girl Malissa had this resolution to drink alot more water, so we bought that crazy big bottle of poland spring each day and finished one each shift (we worked together). I swear to sweet baby Jah himself I was a hell of alot more energized. My skin was brighter and I got these dark circles under my eyes that make me look like Timone, our favorite clever lil meerkat from Lion King, and them shits disappeared. I'm going to start grindin out again on that water hustle it really is a good look.
WATER
#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population.)
#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger.
#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as much as 3%.
#4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.
#5. Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.
#7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a ! printed page.
#8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water you should drink every day?
COKE
#1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.
#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.
#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the “real thing” sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.
#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
#5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.
#6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
#7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.
#8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.
#1. the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.
#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup! (the concentrate) the commercial trucks must use a hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.
#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines of the trucks for about 20 years!
I LOATHE being tired
I just started a new job where i have to be there at 8 every morning. I'd sincerely rather eat Rosie O' Donnels ass than wake up every morning mad early. I'm really impressed by people who can consistantly get up early and not want to take their own life for a split second like i do every morning at 6:30 am.

Mr. Preggers
A man who used to be a woman before having gender reassignment surgery claims he is five months pregnant and expecting a baby girl in July.
Thomas Beatie, who is married and from the US state of Oregon, has written an article in the gay magazine Advocate, saying it feels "incredible" to be a "pregnant man". He adds: "Despite the fact that my belly is growing with a new life inside me, I am stable and confident being the man that I am."
Born Tracy Lagondino, Mr Beatie kept his female organs when he changed genders. He turned to home insemination after what he says was discrimination from doctors. He says he is carrying a child on behalf of his wife, Nancy, because she has had a hysterectomy. The couple have been together for 10 years.
"Doctors have discriminated against us, turning us away due to their religious beliefs," Mr Beatie explained in the article.
"Healthcare professionals have refused to call me by a male pronoun or recognise Nancy as my wife. Receptionists have laughed at us. Friends and family have been unsupportive; most of Nancy's family doesn't even know I'm transgender," he added. "Sterilisation is not a requirement for sex reassignment, so I decided to have chest reconstruction and testosterone therapy but kept my reproductive rights," he said. "Wanting to have a biological child is neither a male nor female desire but a human desire."
The couple, who manage a custom screen-printing business in the town of Bend, lived a normal life "until we decided that I would carry our child," Mr Beatie wrote. A previous insemination ended in a life-threatening ectopic pregnancy with triplets, requiring surgery, resulting in the loss of all his embryos and his right fallopian tube.
"I will be my daughter's father, and Nancy will be her mother. We will be a family," Mr Beatie wrote. Advocate says it has confirmed with Mr Beatie's doctors that he is indeed pregnant.

Terry Richardson X Tron Jankens
I peeped this on hypebeast, I had just been talking about Terry Richardson all day and saw some photos of his exhibit in Collete for SUPREME in Paris... My boy Ty is featured in a bunch of em and they turned out pretty dope.
Damn
In very sad news the four year old daughter of rapper Juvenile was murdered after her 17 year old brother, Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr, allegedly gunned down his own mother (Joy Deleston), and his two younger sisters, Micaiah, 11, and Jelani, 4 at their home in Lawrenceville, outside Atlanta.
The Cash Money rapper, real name Terius Gray was confirmed as Jelani's father in 2003 after a DNA test, and is said to be "devastated".
The bodies were found on Thursday (Feb. 28) and Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr was arrested on Friday (Feb. 29), charged with the deaths.
To avoid conflicts and complications, Terrell is being held in DeKalb County jail as his mother Joy Deleston worked for Gwinnett County as a sheriff’s deputy.
Not Bad For a Girl
Im not one to really post fashion shit like that, trends die and i usually want the people who obsess over them to also (haha). But you know everyone likes a lil tight gear here and there.. another thing that makes me want to implode usually are female based streetwear brands.. their usually weak and for dumb bitches that spend their entirety on trying to prove themselves to guys by wearing an excessively tight pink t-shirt poss with a picture of a gun or set of brass knuckles to validate its street-ness and show you that these hoes mean business, when they usually spend their days talking shit about their friends and trying to steal their mans. BUT. There are a few and I mean FEW brands that I come across that me-likes. I usually like alot of the New york based female brands.... I found this one today probably also still late in the game as I always am... and I think their pretty tight.
London based female brand Not Bad for a Girl... they've got some New Era's & some cute baggy cut n sewn hoodies. I feels.
Check their shit out at www.notbadforagirl.com
