Merry Christmas Yo!

Hello to all who read my blog regularly or come by to see what I've posted about every once in a while.

Just wanna take this time out to thank you and to wish you all a Merry and Happy Christmas!

Spend it with your loved ones and although I'm not one to usually celebrate the holiday, I'd like to remind you all that it is a time of giving and not necessarily receiving.

Exploded Photography by Adam Voorhes

The latest works of Adam Voorhes is positively mind-blowing. Literally.

The abovementioned description of Voorhes' work sounds nearly impossibly on paper but when looking at his latest series, Exploding Photography, it is very easy to change your mind.

Ever wondered what you would see if you pulled apart a pistol, an etch-a-sketch, a telephone, or even a frog?

Voorhes has done just that by capturing the dissection of each subject to its most basic elements, and through a great eye and a lot of spare time, has photographed what many are calling a "celebration of deconstruction".

Adam Voorhes is a photographer and an artist but more importantly, he is a creator. Voorhes has the skill to look at an ordinary object and project it to appear incredibly beautiful.

Imagine just the thought process behind coming up with an idea like this.

Amazing and mind-numbing!

Offended

Who are they to judge me?
They've seen me out and having "fun" twice
They don't know about the others
Don't call me something that I may not be

(But even if I am what you say I am, wouldn't you fit into the same category?
We all make decisions based on our personal choices. I'm sorry but I refuse to succumb to what you think is right and wrong - what's good and bad)

Don't make assumptions
I thought they knew me
By now
But I guess they dont know me at all

I knew there was a reason why i never disclosed information about that part of my life
I am quite offended by the comment
Knowing they made it behind my back


Thanks a lot, mate(s).

DJ AM x NIKE

DJ AM aka Adam Goldstein had a crazy sneaker collection, boasting more than 800 pairs - that's more pairs of shoes/heels/flats/sneakers than I've owned in my lifetime!

Before his tragic death in August, the celebrity DJ announced, via his Twitter profile (@DJ_AM), that he was working on a collaboration with Nike for his own version of the Dunk Hightops.

"This is one of the most amazing moments," AM tweeted earlier this year. "I just HELD the sample of MY OWN NIKE DUNK. I never dreamed this would happen. Wow, THANK YOU G0D."

As you should all know by now DJ AM was found dead earlier this year, on August 28th, in his NYC apartment from what many have claimed a drug overdose.

As you may or may not know, DJ AM was working closely with Nike on a new pair of Dunks for the East/West Rivalry Pack.

Well, photos of the limited kicks hit the internet recently, building anticipation for their release.

The DJ AM and Nike collaboration has produced this black and red Dunk, but it's unfortunate that the late DJ isn’t around to see the product that bears his name make it to production.

No word yet if - or when - these kicks will be hitting our Australian shores.

Reflect

For those of you whom read my thoughts (a lot), you should really pay attention to the lyrics noted at the end of each post.

Because those words often reflect my life more than what I write about.

Funny that.

Night,
