Oddwall

January 31st, 2006 · No Comments

A friend of mine just had his work posted on Wooster Collective, and I thought I’d follow suit. His name is Steve Ensminger, his website is Oddwall.com, and his photographs of street art around San Francisco are pretty damn fantastic.
I think you’ll enjoy.

Get ready to Furlong

January 30th, 2006 · 2 Comments

In tribute to both the actor and unit of measurement, there will be a national (international?) spread of the image of Edward Furlong at furlong-long intervals (equal to 201.16800 meters. ) in major metropolitan cities–or where ever people want to get their Furlong on. If you are interested in participating or would like more information, […]

An open question to the Walgreen employees on Arguello

January 29th, 2006 · 1 Comment

Why do I find you, the two of you — young, beautiful, healthy, vibrant — sitting in the dark room next to the bathroom on your lunch break? It’s Sunday. It’s sunny. There is a world going on right outside — Clement Street, right across from you, is alive! Dim Sum! Pork Buns! Steaming coffee! […]

Too huge world

January 27th, 2006 · 2 Comments

At a loss for words right now, I’m relying on pictures to communicate the sentiment du jour.
This is one of my favorite pictures taken by one of my favorite human beings. New York. New Years. 2004.

Puzzling, isn’t it?

January 23rd, 2006 · 2 Comments

A puzzle piece is not unilateral. Nor, people.
The pieces, they fit beautifully, poetically, flawlessly together on one side—made for each other in fact, cut from the factory in precise cardboard perfection. But the other end juts out with odd-shaped limb, distinct in the way it feels. It is at best incompatible, and at worst, flailing; […]

Better than Friendster (TM)

January 20th, 2006 · 5 Comments

This is a little game I play from time to time: I like to make lists of all the people I know.
I start off with best friends and family. Then I list other friends and people I’ve slept with, then coworkers, extended family, acquaintances, people I’ve met recently, anyone I’ve ever worked with, gone to […]

Small explosion in San Francisco

January 19th, 2006 · 1 Comment

In this hyper-vigilant, color-coded, post-9/11 world, our sense of security is perpetually easier to shake. Even for those not old enough to recall “the good old days” of trusting one’s neighbor or leaving one’s front door unlocked, there is a sense of “things being different now.”

Kodak’s new diggs

January 18th, 2006 · 3 Comments

I don’t know where I’ve been, but Kodak unveiled its new logo last week–a much more streamlined design created to help the company forge a new image as a cutting-edge, 21st century innovator:

(Images from SpeakUp)
A departure from the previous 70-year-old logo, the new logo utilizes a custom typeface meant to give Kodak a more “contemporary […]

Pardon the dust

January 16th, 2006 · 2 Comments

You might notice some changes in the appearance of Not Keeping Score over the next few days / weeks; please be patient as Shannon clumsily learns how to upgrade, design, tweak, and generally manage the site. Think of it as a newborn fawn fumbling to find her legs.
Have faith: with a little luck it will […]
