Homie Tony Luong is in the motherland of Vietnam right now, adding to this work. Tony’s work is super interesting because he is a first generation American and I am fascinated with what it must be like to go back to somewhere that is equal parts foreign and familiar.

Let this be a public record that my son is going to have a love affair with music and the instruments used to create music. Not even kidding. This kid wigs out wherever he sees actual musical instruments or representations of music instruments (drawings, pictures, etc.).

What I like about the Japanese kids in Memphis is, if you think about tourists visiting Italy, the way the Romantic poets went to Italy to visit the remnants of a past culture, and then if you imagine America in the future, when people from the East or wherever visit our culture after the decline of the American empire – which is certainly in progress – all they’ll really have to visit will be the homes of rock’n’roll stars and movie stars. That’s all our culture ultimately represents. So going to Memphis is a kind of pilgrimage to the birthplace of a certain part of our culture.

—Jim Jarmusch on Mystery Train, Interview, November 1989

“It’s the era of the instantaneous image, not only because it is easy to take but also because it is easy to share. It’s the fast food of photography. Fast, cheap, appealing, and easily forgotten.” — Paul Melcher’s selection | La Lettre de la Photographie (via louobedlam)

“In the end, what makes a photograph a photograph is its ephemerality, its special connection to a moment in time that is always already lost.” — Jennifer Blessing - Is Photography Over? (via annotatedimages)

A little over a week ago my little man celebrated his third birthday with family, friends, puppets, cookies and time in a hotel pool! He’s so full of energy!
