Rewatched "Neon City" last evening...peak Michael Ironside. And, again, a lesser film with decent story, memorable moments, and a surprising cinematic poetry. #bmovies #movies #film #art #poetry #cinema #cinematic #michaelironside #rewatch #story #moments #lastevening

When something new is discovered, and becomes popular, it is definitely worth looking in the opposite direction. #originality #original #integrity #criticalthinking #thinking #think

A gift I gave to a friend, over twenty years ago, found its way back into my hands. A gift returned, to inspire my creativity. Though, not a great camera, it does fit neatly in one's sport coat pocket. #gift #film #filmmaker #camera #super8 #friends #sportcoat #pocket #creativity #inspire #art

It is now summer, my least favorite season. Yet, there are dragonflies, and shade trees, and long summer nights. #reflection #summer #solstice #seasons #dragonflies #now #shade #trees #longnights #sun

One of the things I enjoy, when writing, is discovering, and tinkering with, new words. #enjoy #joy #writing #writer #art #discovering #tinkering #newwords #new #words #artist

Writing. Beer. Thursday. #writing #beer #thursday

A picture of me, reflecting over a pint, by Falcone. #friend #pint #picture #reflection

In the years since I've known him, Falcone and I would frequently meet, ponder the strange mesh of the universe, drink beer, and otherwise pursue our relative and collective merriment. Though less frequent these days, it is still a joy. #meet #hangout #hang #friends #ponder #pursue #merriment #joy

Wednesday was cool and quiet, as Falcone and I strolled through the neighborhood of Phinney. Our destination? Sully's. A tavern near the street, perfect for conversations with a good friend. #wednesday #neighborhood #stroll #destination #tavern #conversations #goodfriends

This was Wednesday evening, in Seattle, this past week. Old friends in old and familiar places. #past #wednesday #evening #seattle #oldfriends #friends #familiar #places

I have been thinking of 'this' a lot, lately. Am I staying true to this? Am I stretching, and am I doing so, in the right direction? These are the questions. #neverletgo #dream #dreamy #dreamer #artist #this #true #art #stretching #questions #direction

"Saturday Morning Coffee Ritual" does not sound like a bad band name. It is also a vibe. #saturday #morning #coffee #ritual #saturdaymorning #sound #bandname #vibe

The end of another week...I received free legal advice on film documents, and creating an LLC. Folklife began in Seattle. Whisky was consumed. And I am still writing. Still dreaming. #week #end #advice #legal #film #filmmaker #writing #writer #creating #dreaming #still #folklife #seattle #whisky

I had my first pipe of the year, the first since December. I smoked a bowl of Blackberry Winter (from Ted's Pipe Shoppe in Tulsa) in a French Claude Romain pipe. #pipesmoker #pipetobacco #tobacco #tobaccopipe #pipe

Getting back to thoughts on creating a new website, and the question I am presenting myself is, do I keep my Bluesky as it is, or start anew? #back #thoughts #creating #art #website #question #start #anew

While reading "Rebel Without a Crew", I realize that I will not keep this book. I've already done that. I'm also not interested in Hollywood. So much of the fun of creating films has been taken from us, and put on auction blocks. #taken #forsale #independent #filmmaker #indie #fun #rebel #art #film

A good four days of art and music, not entirely my own. Last night, weareseastar.com played in Seattle, and we really brought our best. It felt good. It was fun. We could have more. #localmusic #livemusic #localband #music #art #performance

Rewatched "The Fifth Element" again, last night. Still one of my favorites, and I'd sit down, right now, and watch it again. Bruce Willis at his best. The Nineties films hit different. #rewatch #thefifthelement #art #lastnight #favorites #moviesky🎥 #brucewillis #nineties #films

I am in between books. Having read "Chilling Effect" by Valerie Valdes, I am open to ideas. I am reading "Rebel Without a Crew", but I am already a veteran of shooting film in this manner. Not sure I will continue reading. Next? #books #reading #open #ideas #rebel #robertrodriguez #next #filmmaker

Memoirs and music - Friday and Saturday, respectively. Inspiring weekend. #memoir #music #friday #art #saturday #weekend #inspiring

It was incredible, to see and listen to someone I've admired for some time. Still do. I look forward to reading the book. #see #listen #book #reading

This is Monday evening. I sketched hard enough to breach the paper. But creativity is as uncouth and rough hewn as it is fantastic and spiritual. #monday #evening #mondayeve #sketch #art #creativity #create #breach #fantastic #spiritual

"Unlike all the other art forms, film is able to seize and render the passage of time, to stop it, almost to possess it in infinity. I'd say that film is the sculpting of time." — Andrei Tarkovsky #AndreiTarkovsky #film #art #poetry #poet #sculptor #time
