Inspired by the nonsensical opening ceremonies of the 2024 summer Olympics in France, this mixtape draws from almost 30 years ago when I was teaching myself photography coinciding with art class in my senior high school year. Sick to death of the drag defamation (don’t be draggots) and the blasphemy of things Christendom, clarification as to early early art projects and photo studio experimentation are in order (think Nirvana). The following selfie portrait was made with film in a Pentax K1000 camera and a cable release long before cellphone cameras were realized. My artistic creativity took off upon my leaving home following graduation. Pottery meets photography in the defame of our youth.
Took a few tries to get it right. A different ballgame where film photography is concerned.
Was big on this album in high school
