The plan to demonize creativity, the arts and entrepreneurship while simultaneously shoving AI products down our throats that seemingly make 99% of things worse isn't going to work. We need the robots do the laundry while the people make stuff robots can't dream of. That's a good future.

Domiana shot in my old Hollywood apartment in ‘99. She and her friend Analyn would come by often, and we’d hang out and take pics. Everything was so random and improvised those days; shoots would just happen out of nowhere! I shot this with one of my Yashica T4 point-and-shoots with on-camera flash.

Kumi photographed in San Francisco’s Chinatown in 1996. Shot with a Mamiya 645 with available light. More info and stories in the alt text.

The imperfections in this photo (along with the gorgeous model) are what make it perfect. The car window. a bit of the seatbelt. AMAZING lighting on her left side but mundane shadow on her right. Shot in the car. These things (in the photoshop/ AI slop age) make it so special.

This 2002 photograph of model Genesis was taken on our way to a shooting location in Hollywood. We were stopped at a red light, and I noticed how nice she looked with the light coming through in the backseat. I grabbed my Canon A1, awkwardly turned around, and took the shot. #analog #canona1

Pontiac Firebird, Los Angeles 2012 - I’m not really into cars or car photography but when I see something noteworthy parked on a street, I like to record it. I shot this in Silverlake on an iPhone 3 using the Early Bird filter for Instagram.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

40 years old now. "Corporate rock" conceptual art (ripped off from Flipper) w/ drums mixed so loud they could shake a filling loose. Lydon as paranoid CEO; Ginger Baker, Bill Laswell, Tony Williams, Ryuichi Sakomoto, Steve Vai, Bernie Worrell as contractors. Should be titled "Stream" today

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

Dave Guttenfelder is an amazing photojournalist who‘s most recently primarily focused on conflict photojournalism in Syria and Ukraine. Hes recently turned his talents to Minneapolis.

The first $10/month subscription print of the new year is a 1996 photograph of @planetmidori.bsky.social. It’s from the same session that produced our now-iconic gargoyle image. The second print features artist Anna Noelle who was also in the shoot. But why are there TWO prints shown? See below👇

I took this 2004 photograph of Courtney in an industrial area of Los Angeles. Although other shots featured the industrial environment more, this one was the one that had the most emotional impact for me, and that’s what’s important in a photograph to me. Shot with my Mamiya 645 with natural light.

My 1998 portrait of French/Swiss actress Irène Jacob on the set of "The Big Brass Ring" which was directed by George Hickenlooper from an Orson Welles and Oja Kodar script. It was a treat getting to photograph Irène because I was a big fan of her work in Krzysztof Kieślowski's "Three Colours: Red".

I shot these images of Bernie Dexter in 2003 just north of San Diego. I believe this was around the time she first started taking modeling seriously. I'm glad Bernie has come a long way since those early days. Shot with my Mamiya 645 with existing light.

My favorite late era Tom Waits song - appropriate for today. youtu.be/Hp0uVNGca4g?...

If people admire you, they put your name on buildings. If you have to do it yourself, well… that’s different.

Wire rewatch just got up to s2's Johnny Cash montage, where the show had put in so much effort to make the audience understand how the detail worked that it could hit fast-forward on the case like this, trusting we'd be able to follow: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjLt...

I watched a fair amount of television this past year. Not sure if it was simply for escapism or just because there was so much damn good stuff on, but I was impressed enough to compile a list in case you're looking for something new. (Reposted cuz I forgot to add alt-text).

Apparently Paypal is now asking those who commissioned artists through invoices for feedback on the experience, Please never type anything, Its a trap. Just putting both yours and their accounts at risk of bans.

I just think this is beautiful!!! youtu.be/nZoHuoFQyrI?...

Terrifying headline if you don’t realize they are sports teams.

My DECEMBER $10/month subscription print is a photograph of my dear friend Sherri who left our world nearly 25 years ago. I love when I get an opportunity to commemorate her in physical print form. Subscription details below.

Rob Reiner, the son of a pioneering television comedian who became a popular sitcom actor himself before directing a slate of beloved films, including “This Is Spinal Tap,” “When Harry Met Sally …” and “The Princess Bride,” died on Sunday. He was 78.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

This was from my first shoot with Jillian Ann back in 1999. Unfortunately she was another friend and model who left our world far too early and is missed by many. We shot this in the small parking lot behind my old Hollywood apartment at Fountain and La Brea with my Mamiya 645 with available light.
