A Tree Falls in Brooklyn

Hurricane Irene was a smash. Well... actually though this is not something to scoff at, especially for the car owner, Irene was otherwise pretty uneventful for Brooklyn. Crown Heights off of St. Marks and Bedford

The Psychological Study of Drawings

Controlled Variable: Adult debauchery
I invited the subjects over, providing the necessary laxative to explore the inner working of the adult psyche. The subjects were all New York urbanites, ages 30-40, with focuses ranging from the research sciences to commercial arts.The subjects displayed immediate enthusiasm
readily admitting an anxiety about verbally communicating their thoughtswhich I was able to understand better as the study unfolded.I found that the subjects felt more comfortable explaining their behavior with the use of surrogates.
This study is ongoing.

Excuse the phone pics. Opus is a vintage shop off of Union Ave in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I love seeing the new ways in which the owner arranges all of the lovely furnishings.

Weekend: Biking through Brooklyn

Biked out to beach, Ft. Tilden State Park, the weekend before last. More people than in previous years but still pretty empty.
Then up from the Manhattan bridge to Newtown Creek Sewage Treatment Plant that has a "nature path".

On the way back I stopped by the new Brooklyn Kitchen location (Meeker and Withers). The store now includes The Meat Hook butchery. Very happy bunch of butchers they are.

Armory

: the International Exhibition of Modern Art
Reporting a week late but from my estimate there was not a lot to report on. Regardless, I enjoy going to see what people have made. Sister Corita Kent (November 20, 1918 – September 18, 1986), the progressive silkscreen poster making nun from L.A. had work there and that was nice to see. Below are just some pieces of hers that I grabbed of the web.And then there were these:

Weekend: February inside

Today is gorgeous (which begs the question, 'What am I doing inside?!) but New York's Feb has been a tough one over all.The upswing is that I reassessed the lighting in my apt and its got a really warm feel now. I am levitating in this photo, by the way.If my cats had a band this would be their debut album cover. Its gotta city-boys-who-see-themselves-as-folky nonchalance to it.

Plant: Rescue

I had to bring the plants inside from the rain. Its been raining all month, now.
But I put the mouse outside, away from the cats. It was only drizzling then.
