so remember Positive? well a 1min version of it, (retitled It’s the Buzz) was one of the 5 winners of the FYI -film your issue- film festival! So they flew me (back) up to NYC and paid for my ritzy hotel where we had a pre-party at the penthouse -here’s a slice of the party… after a few too many drinks. Click here to watch

after vlogging the hell out of the gender-bending, fire-breathing, tassel-twirling, post-punk rock ‘n roll prom of century, along with 18hrs of footage, I have something to show to all of you in the vlogsphere… and it’s a bit naughty, but oh so fun. Click here to watch

so for the FYI film festival (film your issue) -where the films cant be longer than 1min, I made this video after I saw an actual ad in Times Sq that read “I am AIM” which was too tragic to take -and I realized that America is cultivating itself to be distracted from the world -with those who can see what the hell is really going on, are kept silent from those who can speak but are blinded by distracting forces. The film is now a semi-finalist in the festival and you can vote for it here ::”Ny Batteri” by Sigur Rós:: Click here to watch

thanks Zadi for introducing me to the festival!

as I approach the end of my first year in art school and I finish my finals, the air seems more open and world seems wider. I realized how frightening and cathartic it would be if we all just stopped and opened our eyes. But it’s a brave task to stop moving and slow down, but oh how it’s worth it. ::”laserbeam” by Low:: Click here to watch

so I’ve been out of the vlogging loop for a while because I’ve been shooting many films for school, and I finally have something to show for it. Touching the Balance, inspired by the short story What I Saw From Where I Stood by Marisa Silver (included in her collection Babe in Paradise). Starring the talented Lauren Currie Lewis, soon to be seen in the Sundance smash, Salvage and Riah Bourne. For more in-depth criticisms, email me at taxiplasm@gmail.com Click here to watch

He’s witty, he’s not afraid of a night of alcohol and don’t get him started on RENT -yes, Justin Rice returns with his hilarious short film, Hello, My Name is “Fabulous” which I DP’d on. Plus, a nice introduction for the fabulous Melissa Medina. Click here to watch

I, like many, were sad to see Jay and Ryanne leave, knowing that they’re not just a subway away anymore. I already miss them. ::”Með Blóðnasir” by Sigur Rós:: Click here to watch

so this essentially documents the biggest night of the year for my family, and since I’m away from my family this year -in college, my sister came up, not to mention her 30th birthday fell on the same day. ::”twist” by underworld:: Click here to watch
