This was old when I first photographed it in 2003.
The Golden Spiral
Sunday, January 11th, 2009
I made some of the props and brought my Gametone instruments to clang for this extravaganza at
Theater for the New City. I make a brief appearance behind an array of gongs in the second video.
I am especially proud of the ship’s steering-wheel / joystick, padded with bubble-wrap so the cast
could fling it around without injury.
This was downtown Manhattan in May following that famous September in 2001. We made giant paper-mache
spheres in a dim basement apartment in Brooklyn directly under the ash plume from the Towers. Is it any
wonder we were mad?

Bloomberg Starts Mulchfest from GammaBlog on Vimeo.
I was passing City Hall Park this morning and I heard the Mayor’s distinctive voice coming over a P.A. I went inside and saw this spectacle. The mayor encourages you to mulch you Xmas trees Saturday and Sunday between 10 and 2, even though it will probably be snowing.
