My head is my tripod...

...I shall not want.
The whole gang. Minus the boxes.

Kiev II


December 2011, Exarcheia, Athens

You imagine the tic tac
of the clock behind your back
You imagine the click clack
of the Hasselblads in his bag

~ The Dead Brothers, "Tic Tac"


Kiev I

Kiev-4. Possibly the most beautiful camera ever made. A copy of Zeiss Ikon Contax III, actually, but hey, the logo is so much prettier.

Improv IV

December 2011, Athens

So I hope I don't sound too ungrateful
What history gave modern man
A telephone to talk to strangers
Machine guns and a camera lens

~ Bright Eyes, "Road to Joy"

Improv III


December 2011, Athens

I could have been a famous singer
If I had someone else's voice
But failure's always sounded better
Let's fuck it up, boys, make some noise!

~ Bright Eyes, "Road to Joy"

Improv II


December 2011, Athens

The sun came up with no conclusions
Flowers sleeping in their beds
The city's cemetery's humming
I'm wide awake, it's morning

~ Bright Eyes, "Road to joy"

We need the excuse of fiction to stage what we truly are.
