Some random things to point your internet machine at while you wait for me to recover from the feeding frenzy that was the first final review of my MFA career. Email me if you're interested in the lurid details.
- Katy Grannan. Even though she cancelled her visit to MassArt because she had to move to the West Coast, I'm still into these portraits.
- Arthur C. Clarke's 2001 diary (excerpts). More evidence to add to your 'The Making of 2001: A Space Odyssey was nutso' file. Poached from somewhere.
- And speaking of Kubrick, here's an article on the same site about that 'only 3 exist in the world/invented for NASA' lens that he used for Barry Lyndon (maybe the only interesting thing about that movie aside from the fact that the lens allowed that to shoot with available candlelight. It's STINKERS!)
- More goodness from the Library of Congress. A selection of Walker Evans' FSA work. Look out for Dorothea Lange & Ben Shahn, too.
-This guy has a collection of over 2100 pairs of unworn shoes, mostly Nikes, including some really butt ugly ones. Unreal.

Barry L. is a great film!!! What the hell?!? You know what's bad? That terrible biopic HBO just did about Peter Sellars with the ugly Shine guy in the lead role. There was a scene where Kubrick meets Sellars and takes his picture with a Minox. Classy.
