I can’t stop myself. A new tool. Gotta test it out. Again and again.
I’ve already posted about this new
tool from Blurb, but I created more books and thought I’d post about them too. This time a barrage of 7×7, hardcover publications. Simple, just sketches. Books of books and quick ideas. I like to make books like this because there is nothing else quite like putting your work in print. Am I going to really create a book about my Nikon F3 and Zeiss 50mm? No, but it’s nice, and kinda funny, to have this one. But a book about other books or a book about prints, something I’m now thinking about more due to seeing how one of these books, is now become more of a possibility.
Ultimately, with all the other challenges in life, bookmaking is a great escape and just plain fun.

I like the idea of doing some random books of “nothing”. You know. No real body of work. No balls deep into a subject. Just something light and airy like the snaps we take nowadays so often with our phones. that is why when I saw you talking about this app for the first time I got really excited. Unfortunately I have the feeling I’ll have an iPhone before the app comes out for Android, lol.
Was at the monthly meeting of the “cult” and we decided you should buy an iPhone immediately.

Jim,
The only working iPhone I have is a 5 with a giant red circle on the screen.
I was trying to be funny but that red circle is strange.

Jim,
Anytime you use my name and technology in the same sentence you know it’s going to be funny. Some would say sad, or maybe even pathetic.

My watch died again a few days ago. I touched my mom’s computer and the internet died.
