My day with Decker

Spent the day with Jeff Decker: Sculptor, Historian, Collector, Designer, Comedian, Wise Guy, and oh yeah Artist specializing in early American Motorcycles. We filmed his newest piece that might have been a departure from his regular stuff and might have something to do with a DODO bird.

Public Spaces, I love the idea

I love this idea of Public Space, This is a great article in Guernica Mag about Public Space. Photo: my kids in 2007 playing in the streets and public spaces of Amsterdam.

The Ice Cold Juggler

This guy is a amazing performer/juggler. Check out my new video from The Talking Fly video project about this guy.

Juggling tomorrow on my Youtube Channel

Tomorrow's video on The Talking Fly YouTube Channel is a very short movie about a guy that used juggling to get spare change rather than a cardboard sign.

Best Documentary Sundance 2013 (in my opinion)

OK I did not see them all, not even close, in fact I only saw a few, but this film "Who is Dayani Cristal?" was lovely. It put such a wonderful touch on the idea of immigration and being a human. I won't say much, but if you get a chance see it. Had a good week at the Sundance Film Festival this year. Good to see old friends and new films.

Bread (baked by Dan)

I am doing a documentary about a performance artist that deals with bread. This is my friend Dan (not the artist that does the bread-performance art) I interviewed Dan for the bread/art documentary, he was great. Have a good weekend.

Austenland

For my Lady's birthday I took to a screening of the Jerusha Hess film AUSTENLAND at the Sundance Film Festival. It was a very funny and an amazing piece of work. This is the first film Jerusha directed and of course she has written a ton. The Hess' are amazing folks. It is great to see what Jerusha come up with from the director's chair. Jerusha was co-writer on Napoleon Dynamite, Nacho Libre and Gentlemen Bronco and this piece of course. Check out the video (below) that I shot during Gentlemen Broncos. Happy Thursday.

The Park City Sailing video

Here it is video # 2 from my YouTube channel The Talking Fly.The Talking Fly. My YouTube channel is a place for me to celebrate and/or promote stuff I like, or stuff that I think is good for your mind, body or spirt. It is also a place for me to learn about others and myself. Park City Sailing Association is good organization for me and my family.

Tomorrow's Video on The Talking Fly

Tomorrow I will release the second video on my YouTube channel The Talking Fly. It is more a promo than a documentary but promotes a cool organization that is a part of my life and my family's life. Sailing is a big part of our summer here and this video is quick 2 minute video that shows all aspects of the fleet like racing and JR. sailing camp. Peace and happy Monday.

First Descents Turning Point

The first Turning Point show that I directed is now available online and here it is. It is the story of Brad Ludden and his nonprofit First Descents. First Descents is free outdoor adventure camps for young adult cancer fighters and survivors, ages 18-39. This guy is a rad dude and he was Cosmo magazine bachelor of the year a few years back so he is a big deal with the ladies haha! He is a total goof ball too, I call him a hunky boy goof with a giant heart. PEACE.

56 up

This one of my favorite films or ongoing films of all time, The Up Series my Michael Apted. He started this in 1964 and it it unbelievable. It has inspired me in many ways. I like the idea of "Taking the Long View" (a book title of a book about longitudinal documentary by Richard Kilborn). I hope to release several of my unfinished films on my YouTube channel over time. It also reminds me of the photographer Art Rogers, he takes these amazing photos of his neighbors over years and years. Life moves fast, enjoy it as much as you can now. Peace and have a good weekend.

Andrew Ballstaedt Artist

Snaps from today's Talking Fly shoot, Artist Andrew Ballstaedt. I did a nonfiction experiment with him, a one clip not cuts documentary, I will call these things "CUTT*LESS SUPREMES" I will release it in a few Tuesdays. Happy Thursday.
