New Orleans Hallowe’en

Before too much time escapes through my glass, I must give you a little peepshow into the depraved and delightful scene that was our New Orleans Hallowe’en. It was actually a shockingly mellow night, aside from the total shitshow that was Frenchmen Street, where hordes of rat-like zombies swarmed around canisters of nitrous, falling over [...]

Sur la Plage

It’s quite amazing what a week or so away from your everyday life can do for one’s perspective. I always return from my travels newly inspired, and oddly even more in love with home, and the city I live in. I’ve always been the kind of vagabond that likes knowing I have a bed, and [...]

The Museum of Ephemerata – Underground

We recently took a trip deep into the bowels of the earth to visit our dear friends Scott and Jen Webel at their amazing new exhibit of cthonic mysteries. I remember back when I was still living in New Orleans, someone told me about this strange museum that had opened up in East Austin. While [...]

Grackle Camp

Once again, our garden is overrun with pixies! A month ago, the sevenfold incarnation of the Black Forest Fancies took up residence in our backyard, their tent-village springing up like a fairy ring of mushrooms. Grackle Camp was born, with the sweetest, most hard-working bunch of puppeteers you ever did meet. We woke up every [...]

Holi Hai!

The past few days have been rather damp and dreary, making me ravenous for rich, saturated color – electric, fluorescent hues that make my brain tingle. I’m getting pretty bored with the staple neutral palette that seems to be the fashion uniform these days, though don’t get me wrong – I love me some black, [...]

Krew du Poüx!

Hello, hello! Many apologies for the long absence and all the tumbleweeds drifting around these parts! I am returned from my travels, which proved far too fun and chaotically action-packed to do any of the updates I had anticipated. In fact, I barely had time to flick a finger towards my laptop – which was [...]

Magic Windows #9

Magic Windows are portals into the strange and beautiful world I inhabit, and the marvelous people, places and things come across in my day to day – all captured with the aid of my handy magic celephone (it’s an iPhone). The Magic Windows series originated as an attempt to capture the ephemeral objects and fleeting [...]

New Year’s Redux

Ahoy! New photos have surfaced from our New Year’s Eve adventures in the Texas Hill Country, from Mr. Chip Warren, esteemed gentleman and fantastic photographer. Following are a handful of my favorites, but the full set can be seen here: Hill Country New Years 2009 I love the shots he captured of our exploits with [...]

Stargazer Honey

Our New Year’s Eve was truly magical. Despite a rocky start fraught with Mercury’s meddlings, we managed to create a really solid camp and the coziest tipi yet! In a pinch, duct tape, scavenged rope and a random dental tool can be used to quite ingenious effect – the skin was sewn by Francesca out [...]

Blue Moon

Here we go, darlings – on the precipice of a new year, and just nearly ready to dry our sticky wings on the other side of the future! 2010, for real? I mean, doesn’t it seem slightly preposterous, as if we ought to be living in some science fiction reality? Where’s my flying car? I [...]
