Ouroboros

There’s this thing called The Danger: Global Warming Project, “an interactive multimedia creative initiative featuring original images, sound and video material designed to raise awareness of climate change worldwide.” They asked me to contribute a photo; specifically, one using their faux caution tape, and I was thrilled to do it and be in such amazing company. Other contributors include Gus Van Sant, Philippe Starck, Darren Aronofsky, Jonas Akerlund, Gillian Anderson, Casey Affleck, Joe Dallesandro, Jim Jarmusch, and Richard Linklater. This photo is an outtake, just to get the general idea:

That one’s okay, but I’m really happy with the image I gave them. I’ll show it once the project is more together. The model is Brendan, who’s a photographer too. He came over last night and we took some pictures of each other. He’s off to Prague today, so I won’t see myself til who knows when, but here he is, in all his backlit glory.

On the subway today some gorgeous woman who looked like Kyra Sedgwick with dark brown wavy 40s hair was sort of flirting with me from several feet away and it was awesome. If I wasn’t gay and taken, I might currently have a date with someone my mother’s age. Tonight we’re celebrating Leigh’s birthday at the Gramercy Park Hotel, which is one of those places that Geordon says “you don’t need to worry about what to wear” and then you get there and feel like an asshole in jeans and have to get trashed. Thank God for the black cardigan.
