Todd Romulus Lightyear Quattrocchi



A few posts back, we introduced Todd, among with the shit ton of things that were on him. Here are some shots I took last night when the demon cat had calmed down.

Dazed and Confused : Hedi Slimane



For the January, Youth issue of Dazed & Confused photographer Hedi Slimane shot teenagers chosen right off of the streets of London. The black and white portraits do a great job of conveying the "youth" of London, although they all are some rendition of each other, being that they all bare similarities.

Gerard Tully



Gerard Tully's jewelry collection Predator and Prey, introduces a play on his and her jewelry. The handmade collection contains two things, a ring and a necklace. The ring, portraying the the predator, and the necklace, portraying the pray. A snake with a mouse, an elephant with a peanut, a zebra with a blade of grass, etc. If I didn't spend my money on useless things like text books for school, I would definately get this, in a heart beat.

Camera of the Week: Diana F+




I am starting a new segment of The Cat's Ass, camera of the week, where each week I'll showcase a notably awesome camera. The camera of this week is the Diana F+. One of the most popular Lomographic cameras next to the LC-A and Holga. The all plastic camera has been made popular through its lo-fi images and attachment flash, that resembles those used by reporters in the 30's.

The coolest thing about the Diana F+ is the different colors that they come in. Other than the original blue and black, the Diana F+ has four different colors. The all black Blackjack, all white Edelwiess edition, a glow in the dark Diana F+, and just recently all chrome. You can check all these out and other amazing cameras at Lomographic Society International's shop.

wear VANE




I found this brand through an issue of ANTENNA magazine, one of the best magazines to buy. VANE has decent clothing, but what the eye catcher of this brand is their jewelry. From their last collection I purchased, by far the coolest necklace. Its a gold chain with a antique gold plated camera [shown above].

And now I just impulsively bought something from their new collection. A two-finger brass knuckle ring.

Stephen Colbert v. Kanye West





I have listened to enough of Kanye's new CD to be dissapointed by it. It has some good songs, I'll admit Love Lookdown is good, but after Graduation I thought that this CD would be THE CD.

But here in the video, Stephen Colbert [my hero] describes what his new album sounds like, along with "humbling" him.

Manos


Some new photos I took with the help of my nephew, Fabian. They came out pretty well for what I had hoped.

Wood Frames


I have found my next pair of glasses.
These are made by Urban Spectacles.
A pair of these glasses are one of a kind. They are specially made to you, taking measurements of your head for a perfect fit. To make them even more unique you have different woods to choose for you frames.
