 Hanging around the gallery and working on articles with our friends.
Damn, busy as hell right now. Below are some images from the past week of what's been going on with the guy who runs Fecal Face... me!
Worked with the SF Masher on a Chronicle story on Fecal Face which comes out in this Sunday's paper. Check the pink section.
Been doing this more... need the SF park to open.
3rd and army is sick and all, but I need more people to skate with and more transition within blocks of my house. Can' wait.
Tiffany Bozic finally meet the wizard of her dreams.
Everett and Jones in Oakland... Kill it!
Sorry if you don't meat... but if you do, you're stoked!
@Needles and Pens continuing the story that is Fecal Face.
Check the wind models and was pleased that we didn't go sailing... else we would have ended up like this poor guy who did.
Jack Hanley's bathroom.
Got to interview Jack as well as pee in his bathroom.
I like him.
Had a little get together at the gallery for the article as well.
Masher and Andrew Schoultz
Alexis Mackenzie, Jessica Cusik, Tara Foley, Hilary Pecis, Monica Canilao, and Tiffany Bozic.
Tiffany being interviewed.
Hilary and Andrew
Matt Petty, Masher, and Schoultz
Tara is working on her solo show that's opening in about a month at Fecal Face Dot Gallery... So excited!
Matt
Suppenkuche is way too tasty if you're into German food like we are... Masher and Alexis.
German food and... beer of course.
Mauled By Boarlets
back to the gallery to drink and dance...
Next day trying to cope with all the previous evenings drink drink...
Another interview... fun to do these when you're hungover and sweaty airating booze.
went to have some lunch with Jesse and to hit little white things until our hands hurt.
Jesse's got his own white guy gear and a new zine.
Took Fish and Isabelle out to Angel Island.
and Isabelle ran into someone she works with... my first time knowing someone on one of those... well, knowing someome through someone. Not really knowing them but seperated by one person is pretty close.
Summer on the Bay!
America Fuck YA!
Fish taking the tiller gettin' inspiration for his pirates!
I took a pee in the nice boat bathroom.
An quick evening sail the other day around Alcatraz.
Ever since Poo was a litten kitten this has been his favorite place. I never put him there. He tries to get in there and thus the name Poo was born. Many thought it was because of the site... well, a little bit, but he liking of this special place also helped.

| Hola from Tequisquiapan Mexico
Hey there, I just got back from a short residency down in a small town two hours north of Mexico City called Tequisquiapan. I was asked to come down there to meet some of the crew of the Clipperton Project, which basically is going to be a crazy boat trip in March with scientists and artists going out to a very remote atoll in the Pacific called Clipperton Island. Anyways, I thought you might like to see some photos of the town and the graffiti that I was surprised to find there.

| Real Etheral by Evan Mann
Real Ethereal embraces our mysterious relationship with life. It blends the physical with the metaphysical on a journey through an ever-transitioning space where common interactions become extraordinary and perception ventures into the otherworldly. Real Ethereal examines possibilities of unseen realities and metaphorically represents the winding path that reveals before us and conceals behind us; the future remains a mystery while the past fades quickly into the recesses of our mind. We are left with the present: the mysterious reality of our existence; the hair of time difficult to grasp.

Ephameron went there the day before the opening and did a tape installation as well. During the month we also had a zine/print/shirt sale at Choque as well. It all went very well and we had a blast! -Mildred

The Story of Sue Nami
Tuesday, 31 January 2012, 9:36am
In the days following the Fukushima nuclear disaster, I was asked to make a poster for the Devo show at the Warfield Theatre in San Francisco. The image was a Japanese girl, wearing a nuclear t shirt, with the kanji character for earth tattooed on her shoulder. She was dead. I called her Sue Nami, and much to my surprise, the band liked it. ~keep reading Zolton's story of Sue.
